Earlier this month, BTS’ agency also confirmed Suga’s military enlistment and asked ARMY members not to visit the singer at his workplace during service.
BTS members RM, Jimin, V and Jungkook’s military enlistment plans will be out soon. Recently, the singers’ agency HYBE revealed that the members’ upcoming enlistment dates will be shared by this year end. As reported by by Koreaboo, HYBE confirmed that all seven members of the popular K-pop group have renewed their contracts with BIGHIT MUSIC. “All of BTS have completed their second contract renewals,” the statement said and further revealed RM, Jimin, V and Jungkook’s military enlistment plans. “The members who are currently serving in the military (Suga, J-Hope, Jin) will complete their military service in 2025, and their new contracts will begin then,” the statement added.
This comes days after BIGHIT MUSIC confirmed Suga’s military enlistment and said, “SUGA will be beginning his required service on September 22. There will not be any official events taking place on the day he starts his service or on the day he enters the training camp. We kindly ask fans to refrain from visiting SUGA at his workplace during the period of his service. Please convey your warm regards and encouragement in your hearts only.”
“Furthermore, please be mindful to avoid getting adversely affected by unauthorized tours or package products that illegally use the artist’s intellectual property. Our company will take appropriate measures against attempts at any commercial activity that make unauthorized use of artist IP. We ask for your continued love and support for SUGA until he completes his service and returns. Our company will also strive to provide all the support he needs during this time,” the agency added.
Last year, BTS members Jin and J-Hope also enlisted in the military. Their compulsory enlistment will end in 2025.
For the unversed, all Korean men between the ages of 18 and 28 are supposed to serve in the country’s military for about 20 months. No exemption was made for the singers of the popular K-pop group BTS.
