This is when BTS' Suga starts with military service; agency asks fans to not visit him
Story highlights
After BTS members Jin and J-Hope, it’s time for Suga to get enlisted for his mandatory military service.
After BTS members Jin and J-Hope, it’s time for Suga to get enlisted for his mandatory military service in the South Korean army. According to the country’s law, all men between the ages of 18 and 35 have to enlist for a period of 18 to 21 months if they are physically fit. Announcing that it's time for Suga, BIGHIT Music posted on the South Korean app Weverse that Suga will soon be starting service. In a statement, the agency posted, “We have further information regarding Suga’s military service. Suga will be beginning his required service on September 22.”
BTS members will now work together in 2025
Before all members got enlisted, their representatives noted last year that BTS members would soon have to pause work on their music and that they wouldn’t be able to perform together again until 2025, when all of them would have completed their mandatory service.
