RM shares Jin's farewell message to BTS before enlisting in the military

BTS' eldest member Jin officially enrolled for his country's mandatory military service on December 13. No Korean media was allowed to capture the important day past the training center. Moreover, as per the idol's request, fans also did not crowd near the training center.

However, the inside events were witnessed by BTS fans through a Bangtan Bomb episode on YouTube. The clip featured all other members of BTS, who clicked individual pictures with their hyung (eldest member), while bidding farewell to him.

BTS leader RM, who recently appeared on KBS News 9 on December 18 to discuss his future plans, also gave an insight into Jin's farewell message to his younger brothers before leaving for the military.

As per RM, the vocalist didn't convey a long message. However, his words did comfort them, with the Epiphany singer sounding exactly like an older brother. He also promised that he will do his best during his time there.

RM shares Jin's heartwarming farewell message to BTS before enlisting in military

During his exclusive interview with anchor Lee Jae-seok, Kim Nam-joon, aka RM, shared his possible plans before and after his military duties. Additionally, the former asked the Wildflower artist about Jin's entrance ceremony since it was a recent topic and many fans wanted to know about it.

The host questioned:

“I also saw that all seven members went to the training center to see Jin off. You all took some playful pictures and whatnot. Did Jin say anything at the time?”

To this, RM replied:

“He didn’t say much. (Laughs) I’m sure he had a lot on his mind, though. He probably thought it through. When we eventually got to the training center, he said he’d do his best there. Like the eldest, he said that he’ll experience all of it first and let us know how it goes.”

The Indigo creator further shared that, in a classic Jin way, the Abyss singer kept the atmosphere low-key and positive. He also promised to help the members with their enlistment through his experience.

The anchor later asked RM about his message to the eldest member, to which he replied:

"What I said was… I asked him to take good care of himself. To come back to us in good health. I also wished him to complete his service safely and diligently, as I know he would. And I asked him to show them how strong he is, since he’s always strong."

The Astronaut singer, who is globally known for his charming visuals and melodious voice, is also known for taking care of other BTS members by always helping them out, cooking for them, and supporting them during tough times.
