Seoul: BTS’ RM, Jimin, V, and Jungkook are all set to begin their mandatory military service in the coming days. Ahead of the same, the four idols came together for a special Weverse interaction with fans. Candidly chatting with fans, they were seen enjoying a pizza night.
In the live broadcast, V sported a trimmed hairdo, while Jungkook kept his buzz cut concealed under a hood. Jimin sported his long blonde locks and expressed that he was not ready to introduce his fans to his military hairstyle. When RM asked, “Has he ever shaved his head before?” Jungkook was quick to gesture a ‘no’. Reacting to it, Jimin shared, “Fans don’t expect any photos. I’ll enlist quietly and be discharged quietly. I don’t want to show that side to me.”
RM, Jimin, V, and Jungkook assured fans that they would be back soon and that Jin will fill the void as he will be discharged from military duty on June 12, 2024. Fans caught fleeting glimpses of Jungkook’s hairdo while others noted some special moments from the fun session.
Confirming their military enlistment, BigHit had previously said in a statement, “Thank you for your continued love and support for BTS. We would like to update you on RM, Jimin, V and Jungkook’s upcoming enlistment into the military.
