Jin, a member of the globally renowned K-pop group BTS, has completed his mandatory military service, his agency Hybe confirmed on Wednesday. The singer was discharged after one year and six months of service with the South Korean Army, during which he served as an instructor in the recruit training battalion of the 5th Infantry Division in Yeoncheon, Gyeonggi Province.
Jin's discharge was marked by a visit from fellow BTS members, excluding Suga, who were present to celebrate his return to civilian life. Among those in attendance were RM, J-Hope, V, Jungkook, and Jimin. RM, who is currently serving in the military band, performed the group’s hit song "Dynamite" on the saxophone at the site.
Jin left his battalion at approximately 8:50 a.m., receiving applause from his fellow soldiers. Before departing, he took the time to embrace and say goodbye to his junior soldiers.
