K-pop supergroup BTS reached a major milestone in their group journey this week as members RM, V, Jimin, and Jungkook officially completed their mandatory military service.
RM, 30, and V, 29, marked the end of their eighteen-month military duty on Tuesday, June 10, 2025.
Both RM and V were discharged in Chuncheon, Gangwon Province, where RM served in the army band and V carried out his duties in a Special Military Police unit.
A livestream video from Seoul Broadcasting System (SBS), a Korean news outlet, showed RM and V greeting fans with salutes and a saxophone performance as they came out.
The following day, June 11, youngest member Jungkook, 27, together with Jimin, 29, were also discharged after serving at the 5th Infantry Division Artillery Brigade.
They emerged from Yeoncheon’s public stadium clad in uniform, offering heartfelt salutes and thanks to the fans known as ARMY.
Following their discharge, Jungkook and Jimin went live on the online fan community Weverse to greet their fans.
"The first thing I wanted to tell you, ARMY, is thank you for waiting," Jimin said.
BTS entered a military hiatus in mid-2022 after the group's oldest member, Jin, 32, enlisted.
Since then, the group has staggered their service completions: Jin (June 2024), J-Hope (October 2024), RM and V (June 10, 2025), and Jimin and Jungkook (June 11, 2025).
Six out of the seven BTS members are now back together, with only Suga—currently serving as a social service agent—set to return home by June 21, marking the reunion of the world-famous K-pop boy group.
