About this episode

The hosts discuss the upcoming BTS Year and share updates on member news and a famous cat reveal.

Friends in Bangtan... Well, we've made it. Half the world is already in 2026, and your hosts today (Lia and Megan) are almost there. 2026 = BTS Year. For many ARMY, it will be our first big OT7 comeback. It's time to start adjusting eyes and blinking around at this new purple-hued world. Join us for a quick recap on the most famous cat reveal in history (3 cats hard launched this month), and a round up on member news. Also, it's been noted Namjoon can't stop/won't stop referencing Ddaeng. Is our spoiler king coming through with a new year treat? Get in the clown car, baby. Time to ride. Are your family and friends sick of you talking about K-drama? We get it...and have an answer. Check out our sister pod www.afternoonadelight.com for more episodes, book recs and social media goodness. And don't forget about the newest members of our network: Afternoona Asks where diaspora Asians living in the West find ways to reconnect to Asian culture via Asian/KDramas.
