Suga, a rapper and songwriter from the world-renowned K-pop group BTS, has officially completed his mandatory military service, making him the last of the seven members to be discharged from their enlistment duties. This significant milestone marks the end of a period of separation for BTS and their devoted fanbase, known as ARMY.
Big Hit Entertainment confirmed that Suga completed his alternative service as a social service agent and used up his remaining leave prior to his official discharge date, which falls on a Saturday. Unlike traditional military discharges, Suga’s return was kept low-key out of concern for crowd management, with no events planned to celebrate his release.
This year, the anticipation has been building as four other members, RM, V, Jimin, and Jung Kook, previously completed their military obligations in June, and Jin and J-Hope were discharged last year in June and October, respectively. While Suga’s alternative service was prompted by a shoulder injury, the remaining members fulfilled their duties through active military service.
With all members now back, fans are eagerly looking forward to a reunion sometime in 2025. The momentum from their military service completion is coupled with excitement over BTS’s upcoming 12th anniversary celebrations, known as BTS FESTA. Although it’s uncertain if all members will participate, the event is likely to reflect the joy and connection that fans have missed during the members’ hiatus.
The reunion of BTS symbolizes hope and a fresh start as they reconnect with global fans. Looking ahead, the group is expected to undertake significant new projects, including potentially their largest world tour in 2026, as they reignite their artistic journey together. This forthcoming reunion not only rekindles the bond between the members but also promises to inspire joy and enthusiasm among their fanbase, heralding a vibrant new chapter for BTS.
