BTS returns post-military service: A comprehensive overview

BTS fans, the wait is almost over. All seven members will be done with their military service soon, which means a full group reunion is on the horizon.
Suga's wrapping up his public service (he's there due to a shoulder injury), while RM and V just finished theirs.
Jimin and Jung Kook completed their stints earlier this year.

TL;DR

While serving, the members focused on solo careers

Even while serving, BTS hasn't really slowed down. South Korea requires all men to serve in the military, but BTS got a bit of extra time because of their impact.
During the break from group activities, members dropped solo albums—Suga released D-Day, RM released his second solo album, 'Right Place, Wrong Person,' in 2024, and Jimin made waves with Face.

Their return as a full group will be special

BTS isn't just about music—they've broken records worldwide since debuting in 2013 and used their platform for good causes.
From UNICEF campaigns to supporting Black Lives Matter and speaking at the White House about anti-Asian hate crimes, they've shown that pop stars can make real change.
Their return as a complete group is set to be a big moment for fans everywhere.
