Group BTS j-hope enlists as an active duty soldier.
On the 1st, Big Hit Music, the agency, announced on Weverse, “J-Hope plans to enlist as an active duty soldier in the army to fulfill his military service obligations, and there will be no separate official event on the day of his enlistment in the boot camp.”
“To prevent safety accidents due to congestion at the site, we ask fans to refrain from visiting the site,” he added.
Previously, J-Hope announced that his enlistment in the military was imminent, saying, “I can’t tell you in detail, but the enlistment date has already come out. It’s time to prepare.” Last month, he soothed the fans’ disappointment by actively performing with the single “on the street” in collaboration with American rapper J-Cole.
With this, J-Hope became the second member of the team to serve in the military. Previously, his eldest brother Jin enlisted in December of last year and is serving as an active duty army assistant instructor.
