The military service chapter that began with Jin’s enlistment in December 2022 has officially come to an end in June 2025.
With the return of SUGA, the final piece of the puzzle has fallen into place. The world can now welcome back BTS as a full group (OT7) 💜
📅 June 21 – All Seven Members Are Back
- December 2022: Jin begins military service
- April–December 2023: J-Hope, RM, V, Jungkook, and Jimin follow
- June 2025: SUGA completes his social service → BTS returns as OT7!
SUGA has faithfully completed his 21-month social service duty, and now it’s time for BTS to reunite as one strong team.
🪖 A Meaningful Time for Personal Growth
During their military service period, the members made the most of their time by:
- Releasing solo albums
- Appearing in documentaries and special projects
- Exploring individual paths and expanding musically
Each member has returned with deeper artistic maturity and personal growth. Their reunion marks a powerful new beginning.
💜 “WE ARE BACK” – More Than Just a Comeback
At HYBE’s headquarters in Yongsan, Seoul, a massive banner was displayed: "WE ARE BACK", alongside the BTS and ARMY logos. This heartfelt message sent waves of emotion through millions of fans around the world.
Just two days after being discharged, Jungkook made a surprise appearance at J-Hope’s encore stage in Goyang — a true celebration of brotherhood. The members are visibly excited and ready for their new journey together as a group again.
📢 A Final Thought from Hello Korea
