Members of the group BTS, Jimin and Jungkook, mentioned their future plans.
On the 11th, Jimin and Jungkook, who were discharged from the military, communicated with fans through a live broadcast on the fan communication platform ‘Weverse’.
On this day, Jimin opened the conversation by saying, “Time really didn’t pass. A week felt like a month.”
In response, Jungkook said, “There were many sleepless nights. Still, we talked a lot about our activities and discussed what songs we should do. We talked a lot about what to do with the members.”
He added, “The most important thing I want to say to the fans is that I am very grateful for waiting in a place where we couldn’t do anything. I hope the day comes soon when we can prepare and repay you.”
The two were discharged together from the 5th Artillery Brigade in Yeoncheon-gun, Gyeonggi Province, on the morning of that day. After expressing their feelings about their discharge to the press at a public sports field near the base, they reportedly moved to the HYBE headquarters to greet the company officials.
Jimin and Jungkook enlisted together in December 2023 as active-duty soldiers and served as a gunner and a cook (kitchen soldier) in the 5th Division Artillery Brigade, respectively.
BTS has taken a step closer to a full group comeback, with all members now having completed their military service, following Jin and J-Hope, who were discharged last year, and RM and V, who were discharged the day before. Suga, who is serving as a social service agent, will be discharged on the 21st.
HYBE celebrated the members' discharge by wrapping the exterior of their headquarters with the phrase ‘WE ARE BACK’, signaling a full group comeback. This phrase will be displayed until the 29th. Following the previous day, about 1,500 fans gathered in front of the HYBE headquarters to welcome Jimin and Jungkook’s discharge.
