"ARMYs, it's jimin. I enlisted in december 2 years ago, and now the year has already changed twice, I have now been in the military for around a year and 2 months now, and yes I really think that time does pass differently here.. And it's not all easy, but there are still things that I am feeling and learning, so now I am waiting for the days to come quickly where I can have fun talking with you all about things that have happened."
He further elaborated on his daily life in the military, stating that it has not changed at all. Since he was in the military, he had to undergo training, daily routine, and exercise. After concluding his daily activities, he would sleep. The artist stated about the changes in the topic he had with Jungkook during the discussion. BTS' Jimin added, as translated by X user @btsinthemoment:
"If there is something different, it's that after the new year has come, the conversations jungkook and I are having before sleeping have changed a lot, because the days where we will meet ARMYs are slowly getting closer, we're thinking of the time where we will meet again, and talking a lot about what we need to prepare before we meet, or what kind of sides of us we will show, and what kind of lives we will lead from now on, and more."
BTS' Jimin went on to confess his doubts and fears. Since a lot of time has passed and the band has not performed together, he expressed his real thoughts. Despite the fear, he expressed his desire to bring the best performance for the ARMYs. He concluded the statement by wishing happiness and blessings for the fandom. The artist added, as translated by X user @btsinthemoment:
"I really will work hard to prepare. I'll do my best and return with a really good side of myself. Our ARMYs, who I love for and am only grateful for. Please be healthy until the day we meet, and I hope that you will spend days where you will only feel happy. Receive a lot of New Year blessings ARMY. I love you really no but like for real."
