BTS’ Jin has officially returned from his mandatory military service, and the entire ARMY community is buzzing with happiness and excitement. Jin’s discharge ceremony was a significant event, filled with many moments that delighted ARMYs.

Jin's return from the military serves numerous BTS moments to the ARMY
After serving diligently for 548 days, BTS’ oldest member Jin completed his military service and re-entered civilian life. The city of Seoul was abuzz with anticipation, with banners and posters bearing good wishes for him appearing across various locations, creating an atmosphere of celebration and welcome for the returning star.
What fans least expected, however, was the complete reunion of BTS. Making an effort to take time off from their individual military commitments, all six remaining members of BTS gathered to honor and celebrate this pivotal moment in Jin’s life.
The reunion was not without its characteristic BTS charm. Hilarious banter and playful interactions among the members were plentiful, capturing the hearts of their fans. One of the most talked-about moments was Namjoon’s unexpected saxophone performance throughout the discharge meeting.
He arrived casually dressed in a simple outfit with sunglasses, carrying a saxophone which he played at random intervals, showcasing his reported involvement in his division’s military band and adding a whimsical touch to the event.
Another deeply touching moment was the heartfelt hug between Jimin and V. The two, who have been close friends since high school, likely hadn’t seen each other in some time due to their different military assignments. The image of the two members hugging quickly went viral online amongst the band's fans.
Suga, who had been absent from social media during his military service, also made an appearance. While he mostly stayed inside his car, away from the public eye, he made an appearance during the group photo session. Fans were thrilled to catch a rare glimpse of Suga, and his participation in the group photo added to the sense of completeness and unity of the occasion felt by ARMYs.
Both Jimin and Jungkook were seen in their military uniforms, a reminder of their ongoing service. J-Hope also made a significant return to the public eye after a long 127-day hiatus, further adding to the day’s celebratory atmosphere. After the formalities of the discharge ceremony, Jin took to Weverse to go live and reconnect with his fans. Although his fellow members did not join him for the live session, they had all taken an OT7 photo beforehand, a gesture that delighted fans.
During the live session, fans were overjoyed to see that the star's playful personality remained unchanged. Despite completing an arduous 18 months of military training, he retained his characteristic humor and warmth, his happy nature evident as he interacted with fans.
The day before BTS’s 11th debut anniversary turned into an extraordinary celebration, filled with heartfelt reunions and cherished moments. It was a day when ARMYs were gifted with many precious memories involving their beloved stars.
The return of Jin, coupled with the reunion of all seven members, marked a memorable chapter in the BTS story, one that fans will treasure for a long time.
