BTS Jimin recently wrote a heartfelt letter to the band's devoted fanbase, known as ARMYs. Since posting the letter on Weverse, it has become a trending topic on social media for two reasons. Firstly, this is Jimin's first update since enlisting in the military and it has thus, stirred up a range of emotions among ARMYs. Secondly, the fact that the letter was handwritten has also caught people's attention.
Jimin penned a letter addressed to ARMYs in Korean. A translation of the letter posted on a fan page on Instagram says, “To ARMY, ARMYs have you been doing well healthily? Tomorrow is the day I will complete my training (have my graduation ceremony). About a little over a month has passed sometimes it feels long but because jungkook is beside me, I feel like it goes by fast too. It hasn't been a long time but I already miss you all seriously so much.
I've been saying hello while using the public phone to call the members. Jungkookie is also working hard in his military life. He's doing extremely well with his military life that everyone else is like "As expected, Jungkookie hyung." While being beside him, I feel like I can depend on him a lot (saying he feels supported) and he has been giving me strength.
I will be going to (my assigned) military base but I will adjust well and try to be well. Our ARMYs, be careful to not catch a cold. Don't be sick and eat your meals well and only think of good thoughts. Hehe. Anyway once I go to the base, I will write a letter too. I love you.
- JIMIN”
