For those who don't know, the oldest of the seven members, Jin, enrolled in the military in December 2022 and returned to civilian life in June 2024. Since J-Hope enlisted in April 2023 and has already served his time, this tour represents an even more meaningful return for him. In December 2023, RM and V joined, and Jimin and Jungkook soon followed. SUGA is scheduled to return in June 2025 after starting his alternative military duty in September 2023. He will complete his service as the final member of the band.
All the five are anticipated to finish their service in June 2025 before the ARMY anniversary on July 9, 2025.
