Fans Connect BTS’ Jin’s Upcoming ‘HAPPY’ Album to HYYH Era with Smeraldo Flower Instagram Update

On Wednesday, October 16, the excitement surrounding BTS member Jin’s forthcoming solo album, HAPPY, surged once more as the Smeraldo Flower Instagram account resumed activity after a significant hiatus. This latest update came after a long silence since its previous post back in May 2022. The account shared a new image featuring flowers along with the text:

“Thank you for your purchase.”

The mythical Smeraldo flower first gained attention in 2017, just a month ahead of the release of BTS’ LOVE YOURSELF ‘HER’. It was then that Jin tweeted the word “Smeraldo”alongside a photo of himself holding a bouquet of these flowers. The flower holds deep meaning within the context of the Bangtan Universe (BU), intertwining mythology and narrative depth.

The BU launched as part of the HYYH series, which fans often describe simply as HYYH, short for “Hwa Yang Yeon Hwa,”translated roughly as “The Most Beautiful Moment in Life.”This captivating storyline commenced with the HYYH series, leading BTS to weave these narrative elements into their music videos and other forms of media.

With the resurgence of the Smeraldo Flower account in advance of Jin’s HAPPY album, fans have begun to speculate about potential links between the HYYH period and the upcoming release. A fan on X expressed this excitement with the comment:

“WE ARE SO BACK.”

Fans took to the internet to share a range of reactions, many of which revolved around the hypothesis of a HYYH revival.

“Woooaaahhhhhh…. I read this theory somewhere that hyyh era will come back on its 10th anniversary,” commented one fan.

“The Flower Smeraldo IG account is suddenly active??? Right before Seokjin’s comeback??? What do you mean ‘Thank you for your purchase’??????? What is happening OH MY GODD??” wrote another user.

“HYYH you’ll forever be relevant and watch me connect every dot,” said one admirer.

Fans theorized that Jin’s HAPPY could signify the continuation of the Bangtan Universe narrative. One noted that next year marks a decade since HYYH, coinciding with BTS’ anticipated reunion in 2025, hinting at potential larger plans.

“What if Happy is the opening story for the continuation of Bangtan Universe?? because, you know, Seokjin and that flower are important in hyyh…,” theorized another fan on X.

“Okay so this account came online now. Right after HAPPY was announced. We all know how Jin is the one that keeps saving them in hyyh. HYYH??? 2025 is right around the corner. HYYH 10th Anniversary. 2025??? BTS comeback year. So is HAPPY a transition album to chapter three??” contemplated another admirer.

“I mean, JIN is the center of BU so… is it possible that JIN’s HAPPY has BU Content???” noted another user.

“Oh, they’re starting up the hyyh story line with the solos again huh,” mentioned a fan.
