In a significant transition for K-pop sensation BTS, members V, RM, Jungkook, and Jimin are gearing up to fulfill their mandatory military service obligations in South Korea. The impending enlistment has sparked widespread interest, particularly as details emerge about the enlistment date and the specific units the members will join.
Notably, the focus is on Kim Taehyung, popularly known as V, for his decision to enlist in the Special Task Force of the Army’s Capital Defense Command. Fans and industry observers eagerly await further information, and BIGHIT MUSIC has issued a brief statement confirming that the exact joining date for these K-pop idols is still under consideration.
Recent reports have suggested that Jimin and Jungkook are set to join the Army’s 5th Infantry Division boot camp. Adding an intriguing layer to this development is the fact that their eldest bandmate, Jin, is already engaged at the same division, serving as an assistant trainer. This has led to speculation about Jin potentially taking on a role in training his fellow bandmates. It is reported that Jimin and Jungkook will commence their basic training from December 12.
