The Grammy nominee enlisted in the South Korean military on December 12, 2023, with fellow BTS member Jungkook. While completing basic training, he ranked first in his training class and received the Division Commander's Award for best trainee.
His outstanding performance led to an early promotion and recognition as a "Special Warrior", a title awarded to soldiers demonstrating exceptional physical and mental strength.
Amidst his ongoing military service and continued success in music, the singer has been continuously making donations to help society. On November 22, 2024, Jimin donated 100 million KRW (roughly $70,500) to the 'Dedication to the Nation, Love for Comrades Fund.' This fund is administered by the South Korean Army and the Chungnam Community Chest of Korea.
The fund helps soldiers and their families with living expenses, medical care, and scholarships for soldiers who have sacrificed for the nation. According to an article by AllKpop, dated November 23, 2024, with this contribution, Jimin became a member of the Honor Society. Honor Society recognizes individuals who donate 100 million KRW or more to charitable causes.
In May 2024, he donated another 100 million KRW to the Gyeongnam Office of Education. The donation was given to the Gyeongsangnam-do Future Education Foundation for scholarships for students from underprivileged families so that their health does not adversely affect their education.
Jimin is currently serving in the 5th Infantry Division's artillery brigade and is expected to complete his service on June 11, 2025.
