The graduation ceremony, a momentous event for all trainees, saw V and RM donning their military uniforms with pride, capturing the essence of the occasion. The photos shared by RM included a salute, symbolizing the respect and dedication they exhibited throughout their training.

Amid the celebration, concerns regarding leaked media from the military surfaced. Fans rallied against the unauthorized sharing of photos and videos, emphasizing the importance of updates directly from the artists. The leaked video from the graduation ceremony featured V and RM in their military uniforms, standing in a queue for an honor, offering a glimpse into the solemn yet proud moment.
Reports suggest that Taehyung has chosen to join the Special Task Force of the Army’s Capital Defense Command, where he will undergo an additional three-week training course at the Army General Administration School.
BTS, originally consisting of seven members – RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook – has now seen all its members enlisted in the military. The group announced a hiatus in 2022 to focus on individual pursuits, including solo careers. With a tentative reunion expected in 2025 after fulfilling their mandatory service, the BTS Army eagerly anticipates the return of their favorite global superstars.
