BTS Members’ Military Service

All seven members of BTS are currently undergoing mandatory military service in South Korea. The process began with Jin, followed by J-Hope and Suga, then RM, V, Jimin, and Jung Kook. The typical duration of military service in South Korea is 18 months. Management of the band announced last year that BTS would regroup “around 2025.” During their service, members might have opportunities to perform casually for their comrades.

The collective conscription of the band marks the conclusion of a prolonged dialogue in South Korea regarding whether BTS members should have been exempt from mandatory military service. Despite the hiatus, fans remain supportive, eagerly awaiting the group’s reunion.

BTS fans have been waiting patiently for the members to complete their service, which is expected to be around 2025. Jin’s completion of military service is a promising sign for the band’s future activities.
