Three members of BTS have already completed mandatory military enlistment in South Korea. They are: Suga, J-Hope It is Jin, the oldest members of the septet. But when will the trio return from military service? RECREIO gathered the response below; check out!
Suga
The latest to temporarily say goodbye to ARMY (as BTS fans are called) was Suga. The idol who was born on March 9, 1993, turned 30 in 2023, the maximum age for BTS members to enlist.
This is because, in 2020, the South Korean Parliament approved the bill dubbed the “BTS Law” which allows idols recommended by the Minister of Culture to postpone military enlistment until the age of 30, unlike ordinary citizens, who can request the postponement only until the age of 28.

Thus, on September 22, he reported to the Armed Forces to begin basic training, becoming the third member of the group to enlist in the army. The idol’s departure is scheduled for February 2025.
J-Hope
Being the second to enlist, J-Hope He began serving as an active soldier on April 18 of this year. The idol who was born on February 18, 1994, will return from the army at the age of 30 years and eight months, as his return is scheduled to take place on October 24, 2024.
It is worth remembering that, currently, J-Hope is an assistant instructor at the 36th Infantry Division training and recruiting center.
Jin
Like this Sugathe first member of BTS to shave his head and wear military uniform, i.e. Jinrequested the postponement of his military enlistment until his 30th birthday, celebrated on December 4, 2022.
This is because he reported to serve as an active soldier at the 5th Infantry Division’s recruit training center in Yeoncheon, Gyeonggi Province on December 13 last year. In this way, the expected return of Jin is scheduled for June 2024.
It is worth remembering that last Tuesday, the 21st, the other members of BTS (RM, Jimin, V It is Jungkook) confirmed that they are preparing to complete their military enlistment. The revelation was made by BigHit Music, the agency responsible for the group’s career, through a note published on the Weverse platform.
