Suga of BTS Completes Military Service, Fans Await Reunion
SEOUL (Reuters) — Suga, a member of the globally renowned K-pop group BTS, was officially discharged from his military service on Saturday, marking the end of an era as the last member to complete South Korea’s mandatory national service. Suga, who served as a social service agent, wrapped up his duty with minimal fanfare, much to the excitement of fans eager for the group’s anticipated return.
BTS’s label, Big Hit Music, confirmed that Suga completed his service on June 18, with his official discharge illuminated in a statement. Unlike previous discharges, no public celebration was organized for Suga due to concerns about crowding. The band members started their military obligations in December 2022, beginning with Jin, and their service periods can last up to 18 months.
Shortly after his release, Suga expressed his feelings on the fan platform Weverse, apologizing for any disappointment caused by his past issues, including a fine of 15 million won (approximately $11,500) related to a drunk driving incident on an electric scooter.
As fans eagerly await any news of a reunion, analysts predict that BTS is preparing for its largest-ever world tour scheduled for 2026. The group’s management, HYBE, continues to be closely monitored by securities firms, anticipating a significant return to the music scene. While the exact details surrounding BTS’s comeback remain under wraps, the enthusiasm among fans is palpable as they look forward to reuniting with their beloved idols. With Suga’s return, the stage is set for BTS to reclaim its spot in the global music industry once again.
