He personally produced the song together with Hiss Noise. Apart from this, Jungkook has long been open about a mixtape that he is working on. So, that’s definitely on the table. 

Formed in 2010, South Korean boyband BTS — also known as the Bangtan Boys — also took a break in December 2021, when the group said they needed some down time to recharge.
