In a poignant moment for BTS and their global ARMY, RM and V officially commenced their mandatory military service at the Nonsan training centre. With the duo opting for a low-key entrance to minimize disruption for other enlistees, fans stepped up by placing large bus advertisements at the training centre's entrance to bid farewell uniquely and touchingly.

While RM and V initiated their service, anticipation builds for the impending enlistment of Jimin and Jungkook on December 12, marking the enlistment of all seven BTS members.
