BTS
member
Jimin
has reached out to his fans, penning a post on Weverse, the occasion of Lunar New Year. He is currently serving in the South Korean military and updated the ARMY about himself and
Jungkook
.
An X (formerly Twitter) user translated Jimin’s post as, “ARMYs, it's Lunar New Year! I hope you have a happy Lunar New Year and I hope you’ll stay healthy and won’t get sick this year I hope that this year will be filled with nothing but happiness.”
Sharing an
update
about Jungkook and himself, the post further read, “Jungkook and I are doing well, so don't worry too much.
I'll make sure to come back again! Eat lots of delicious things and don't go on a diet today (smiling face emoji)."
In December 2023, Jimin, Jungkook RM, and V enlisted for the mandatory
military service
. After five weeks, Jimin completed the graduation ceremony in January this year. Jimin, along with fellow BTS member Jungkook, embarked on their military journey through the 5th Infantry Division Key Resolve Training Unit in Yangju, Gyeonggi Province, on December 12. Reflecting on the same, Jimin had previously shared, "Military life can feel long, and sometimes it passes quickly with Jungkook by my side. Being together, he provides a lot of support and strength. I will soon be moving to my assigned unit, and I'll adapt well and take care of myself."
All the members are currently enlisted for the mandatory service and are expected to reunite in 2025, after being discharged.
