BTS RM recently shared an intriguing Instagram story, capturing fans’ attention with a still from the anime movie Blue Giant. The image, which shows the protagonist playing the saxophone, has left fans speculating whether RM is hinting at a special welcome for Jhope on his upcoming military discharge day.
The BTS rapper and producer previously welcomed Jin, the oldest member of the group, with a saxophone performance during his military discharge earlier this year. Now, with Jhope set to complete his military service on October 17, 2024, fans are eager to see if RM will continue this tradition. The Blue Giant reference has led many to believe that RM might bring out his saxophone once again to celebrate his fellow bandmate’s return.
Adding to the excitement, RM also updated his profile picture on Instagram, sparking more anticipation for J-Hope’s homecoming. Fans are eagerly looking forward to what RM might have planned for the joyous occasion.

The picture Namjoon shared is from the Japanese animated film "Blue Giant," which tells the story of a student from Sendai who moves to Tokyo to pursue a music career after receiving a saxophone as a gift from his brother.#KimNamjoon #BTS @BTS_twt pic.twitter.com/SDupus75r9
Am I the only one who thinks RM changed his IG profile pic because it's a hint that there will be saxophone 🎷 when Hobi gets discharged? #ARMY #hobi #rm #jhopeiscoming #jhope_countdown

In addition to the speculation surrounding J-Hope’s discharge, RM’s solo documentary film RM: Right People, Wrong Place is set to make its premiere at the 29th Busan International Film Festival on October 7. The documentary will be screened in the Open Cinema section at 8 PM KST, with its global theatrical release scheduled for December across 3,000 screens worldwide. This project has created a buzz among ARMYs, eager to see the BTS leader in a new light.
Known for his thoughtful lyrics and deep voice, RM—born Kim Namjoon—debuted as the leader of BTS on June 13, 2013. Before joining BTS, he was active in the underground Korean hip-hop scene under the moniker "Rap Monster." RM released his first solo mixtape RM on March 20, 2015, followed by Mono. on October 23, 2018, featuring the emotionally resonant track Forever Rain.
He later released his first full-length studio album Indigo on December 2, 2022, with the title track Wild Flower featuring Youjeen. His latest album, Right Place, Wrong Person, was released on May 24, 2024, along with a music video for the lead single LOST! ARMYs are now waiting to see if RM will surprise everyone by playing the saxophone at Jhope’s discharge, much like he did for Jin’s. It looks like RM might just create another memorable moment for BTS and their fans with his musical prowess.
