BTS member Suga announced his plans for military enlistment a day after concluding his D-Day concert. BTS agency BigHit Music shared a post on WeVerse on August 7 which said that Suga started the process by applying for the termination of his enlistment postponement. The official dates are yet to be announced.
The statement read, ‘Hello. This is BigHit Music. We would like to inform our fans that Suga has initiated the military enlistment process by applying for the termination of his enlistment postponement. We will inform you of further updates in due course.’
It added, ‘We ask you for your continued love and support for Suga until he completes his military service and safely returns. Our company will spare no effort in providing support for our artist. Thank you.’
After his concert on August 6, Suga held a live session on WeVerse. As translated by Twitter user @ryuminating, Suga said, ‘I really am not the type to cry, but starting from Snooze, I felt it. The members were there and my sunbaenims came too. Before, I had dreams while watching many sunbaenims and now I have become someone’s sunbae. And those 10 years flew past me. And that’s when the tears came.’
He hinted that the Seoul concert was his last performance on stage. He also talked about reuniting with the other BTS members RM, Jin, J-Hope, Jimin, V and Jungkook in 2025.
Reacting to the news, a fan wrote on Twitter (now X), ‘We love you Yoongi! We will wait for you always. Please be safe and take care of your health.’
Another commented, ‘I am crying.’
BTS members Jin and J-Hope are currently serving in the South Korean military.
