On August 12th, netizens in an online community spread a photo of BTS’s Jimin and Jungkook posted on the SNS account of a senior who has already been discharged from the military.
The picture shows soldiers gathering to take a commemorative photo celebrating the senior’s discharge from the military. Jimin and Jungkook were also captured in the picture. The two stood at the left and right ends of the photos, looking straight at the camera.
Jimin wore a military T-shirt and pants while Jungkook was leaning on the shoulder of a comrade. Having been serving in the army for about 8 months, the two have become more mature and confident.
Jimin and Jungkook enlisted at the recruit training center of the 5th Infantry Division in Yeoncheon, Gyeonggi-do on December 12 last year. They received basic military training and have been fulfilling military service there. Prior to their enlistment, the two shared, “I’ll go and return safely. All I thought about was to go and return quickly, but that feeling only came after I shaved my head”, “I’m feeling mixed emotions. I’ll complete military training and proudly do a salute when I return”, etc.
When Jimin and Jungkook started serving, the eldest member of BTS Jin was an assistant instructor at the unit. This aroused keen attention for the possibility of the three’s reunion.
Meanwhile, all BTS members are currently doing military service, except for Jin, who was already discharged earlier this year.
