How can fans guess what a group's concept will be even before they've announced any concrete plans? For BTS, the key lies in their 'BTS Universe'. The entire universe is a complex web of stories, all connected to every song, album, MV, and storyline in some way or another. 

So here are some of the speculations that fans have about their upcoming comeback!
