BTS’ V and J-hope’s military update
J-hope is days away from getting discharged. He enlisted as an active-duty soldier in April 2023 and is currently working as an instructor at the training battalion in Gangwon Province. He recently penned a note on Weverse talking about how he feels with days left for his service to end.
He wrote, “All that time flew by, but I'm already reminiscing about it, I guess I grew pretty fond of everything here. I've been packing, giving away some of the gear I came to cherish, and my locker's starting to look a bit empty."
V was assigned to the ‘Ssangyong Unit’ of the 2nd Corps. He was reported to be serving under the Special Task Force of the Military Police Corps. V's discharge date is set for June 10, 2025.
For those unversed, the decision by BTS to enlist in the military helped avert a sticky situation for South Korea's government. Military service is compulsory for all able-bodied males under 30 years old. The current system allows for some exceptions on the grounds of exceptional service to the country. Some top athletes and classical musicians have been excused on this basis, but pop artists have not.
