On the morning of June 10, two members RM (Kim Nam Joon) and V (Kim Tae Hyung) of BTS completed their military service and appeared at a discharge event held at Sinbuk Sports Park in Chuncheon, Gangwon Province (Korea).
RM served in the army as a member of the 15th Division military band, and V was a member of the Special Forces (SDT) of the Military Police Brigade, under the 2nd Corps Command.
After appearing in the media, as well as being welcomed by fans, V and RM continued to return to the company to open a live broadcast to interact with fans.
During the conversation, V confessed that his personality had changed. Previously, V's MBTI (personality classification) included ENFP (reasonable, extroverted) and INFP (emotional, introverted). But now, V has become a more outgoing person, thinking logically instead of emotionally.
He also emphasized: "Now I really cannot stand people with childish behavior."
Netizens also noticed that V was getting more mature than before. Although his charm has not changed, it seems that V has controlled everything around him better, bringing an increasingly masculine and mature demeanor.
Some fans also pointed out that before, every time he streamed live, V often listened to songs with melodious melodies. However, he now treats fans with more vibrant and noisy sounds than before.
The most impressive change is definitely V's appearance. He practiced to increase from 62kg to 80kg in the army. When discharged from the army, V continued to train to lose to 67kg.
From the photos revealed by the male singer, it can be seen that he possesses a broken, balanced figure.
Previously, when sharing with the media at the discharge event, V said: "After serving in the army, I had time to reflect and recover both physically and mentally.
I keep thinking about wanting to run back with ARMY (BTS wardom) as soon as possible. I sincerely thank everyone who waited for me during my break. If you guys wait a little longer, I promise to come back with a great performance".
He also expressed his gratitude to his teammates: I hope all unit commanders and soldiers are safe and complete the training course without injuries. Thank you very much for taking good care of me throughout my service.
After V and RM, Jimin and Jungkook will be discharged from the army on June 11. Suga was the last member of BTS to complete his military service at the end of June.
BTS's activities after reuniting with a full lineup are also attracting the attention of fans.
Big Hit Music has announced a full schedule for both online and off-line events this month to welcome BTS back.
On June 13-14, the annual event "BTS Festa 2025" will take place in Goyang, Gyeonggi Province, commemorating the group's debut date (June 13, 2013).
After Suga was discharged from the army on June 21, an art exhibition for fans called " Presence in Absence: Chapter 2, BTS Art" will open in Seongdong district, Seoul. The exhibition takes place until June 29 and displays works of art to celebrate the group's complete reunion.
