BTS stars RM and V end military service – a comeback is approaching!
The members of the world-famous K-pop band BTS are facing an important turning point in their careers. After 18 months of military service, RM and V will be released from their military service on Tuesday, as will Jimin and Jungkook on Wednesday. These developments will be watched with excitement as they will herald the group's return to the music scene after a lengthy break. The Big Hit Music agency asks fans to support these special moments from a distance, as no public release parties are planned for safety reasons. This information was provided by ZVW confirmed.
Military service in South Korea is compulsory for all able-bodied men, with a period of between 18 and 21 months. All seven members of BTS have been unable to avoid this obligation, despite discussions about possible exemptions. Jin, the oldest member of the band, entered service in December 2022, followed by J-Hope in April 2023. The rapper Suga performed alternative social service for health reasons, while Jungkook, Jimin, V and RM were called up for military service in November 2023. The agency OK Magazine highlights that the roles assigned to K-pop stars have far-reaching effects on their careers.
The return of the stars
The return of RM, V, Jimin and Jungkook is being watched with anticipation by fans. But they have to be prepared that the band's return could be delayed until at least summer 2025. BTS has denied rumors of a possible disbandment in 2022, instead opting for an extended break while they perform their military service. During this time, the group had released hits such as "Dynamite" and "Permission to Dance", cementing their status as one of the most successful K-pop groups.
The Hybe agency also confirmed that all members have renewed their contracts, which is a clear sign of the group's intention to return together after military service. However, there are currently no new projects due to the length of service. Even Suga is expected to be released from his community service on June 21, 2025, making his return to BTS even more distant.
Outlook for the future
The coming months will be challenging for the band and their fans. BTS has established themselves as a mainstay in the K-pop scene, and their return is highly anticipated. While the group takes a temporary break, the individual members use the opportunity for solo projects. Meanwhile, the hope of a speedy reunification after the end of military service remains alive.
