Jin to enter recruit training centre grounds for military enlistment without greeting BTS ARMY

Jin, the eldest band member of BTS, is all set to enlist in the South Korean military on December 13 and the group's agency BigHit Music has issued a new statement. They have requested the media to 'please refrain from visiting the site' and have also informed that Jin will be entering the grounds of the recruit training centre in a vehicle 'without greeting the media or fans separately'.

‘Jin will be enlisting in the army as an active-duty soldier to fulfill his military duty. As we have announced before, there is no separate official event on the day of admission to the recruit training centre. On the day, the site is expected to be very crowded with enlisting soldiers, family members, and some fans. We ask the media to please refrain from visiting the site. In order to prevent safety accidents caused by on-site congestion, Jin will enter the grounds of the recruit training center while in a vehicle without greeting the media or fans separately,’ the statement read.

The statement concluded, ‘Due to the nature of the venue, we ask for your understanding that there is no separate waiting space for reporters. The agency will not spare its efforts and continued support until the day Jin fulfills his military service duties and returns in good health. Thank you.’

Jin recently shared a selfie on the fan community, Weverse, giving us a glimpse of his new look. He now has a buzz cut as per the army guidelines.

Following his post, group member Jimin changed his profile photo on Weverse to that of the photo shared by Jin.

Jin will reportedly undergo a five-week training and will be then deployed to the frontline unit of the army. The other BTS members--RM, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook will also serve in the military. BTS will reconvene in 2025 after completing their mandatory military service.
