All BTS members currently fulfilling their military duties are set to come together to celebrate the discharge of their eldest member, Jin. RM, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, Jungkook, and V have temporarily left their own service obligations to join in welcoming Jin back from military duty.

Due to safety measures at the location, an official discharge ceremony won't be held. Originally planning to gather at the military base, the BTS members have decided on a quieter celebration at a private venue in Seoul to avoid potential overcrowding issues.

In response, Big Hit Music, BTS's agency, has expressed cautiousness, stating, "It is difficult to confirm."

The members have previously showcased their strong bond by arranging to meet and bid farewell to each other on their respective enlistment days.

Jin began his military service as an active-duty soldier in the Army on December 13, 2022, becoming the first BTS member to serve. He served diligently as an instructor at the 5th Infantry Division's training center and is scheduled to complete his 18-month service term, with discharge scheduled for the 12th.

Following Jin's discharge on the 12th, BTS will celebrate their 11th debut anniversary on the 13th. The group plans to commemorate their return with fans at the offline event '2024 FESTA,' to be held at Seoul's Jamsil Indoor Stadium.
