"Please refrain from sending letters and gifts even after he has finished his military recruit training and gets stationed at his military base. If a large number of letters and gifts from the fans arrive at the center all at once, it would be difficult to store them and they could be easily lost. We ask that you please refrain from sending anything by mail. BIGHIT MUSIC will assist in making sure J-Hope is able to personally see any kind and warm messages fans leave on Weverse using the hashtag #Dear_jhope_from_ARMY.

"We would also like to ask for your cooperation during J-Hope's recruit training graduation ceremony. In order to prevent any issues that might occur from crowding, we ask fans to please refrain from visiting the site. Instead, we ask you to keep your heartwarming words of support and farewell in your hearts.

"We ask for your continued love and support for J-Hope until he finishes his military service and comes back. Our company will also strive to provide every support he needs during this time. Thank you."

For the unversed, in April, J-Hope commenced his 18-month mandatory military service by entering a South Korean boot camp. He became the second member of the group to join the country's army. His die-hard fans expressed their support by gathering near the base, arriving in rented buses adorned with large photos of J-Hope and messages wishing for his safe service.

In December, Jin, the eldest member of BTS, became the first member of the group to enlist in the military after cancelling his request for a deferment. Following Jin, other members like RM, Suga, Jimin, V, and Jungkook, are also expected to fulfil their mandatory military service.
