BTS members Jungkook and Jimin officially discharged; full BTS reunion nears

On the K-pop front.

The wait is nearing an end for BTS fans worldwide as all seven members are soon set to re-unite as a group.

Earlier today two more members Jungkook and Jimin were discharged from their mandatory service while Suga ends his duty next weekend.

Park Hyo-been reports.

As they stepped out of the car, Jungkook and Jimin were greeted with loud cheers—bouquets in hand, smiling at their fans.

The pair enlisted together back in December 2023, served in the Army, and were officially discharged from mandatory military service on Wednesday morning.

After a short salute, Jungkook thanked those he served with.

"To our seniors and the officers who spent time with us—thank you so much for taking good care of us."

Jimin expressed heartfelt appreciation for the fans who had waited for them.

"With our service now behind us, I believe it's time to keep building the vision we've been working on. We'll do our best to come back with something even better."

Fans from across the globe gathered near the base from early morning to welcome the two stars.

Banners reading "Purple is Back" and "Jungkook's Moment Begins Now" lined the area, along with giant balloons.

With Jin and J-Hope already discharged last year, and RM and V returning on Tuesday, only one member remains before a full reunion.

SUGA, currently serving as a social service worker, is set to complete his duty later this month.

As BTS celebrates the 12th anniversary of its debut this Friday, excitement is building for a long-awaited full-group comeback—possibly just around the corner.
