Two more members of K-pop boy band BTS were discharged from the military on June 11 with only one left before the group becomes complete again. 

Jungkook and Jimin completed their military service on June 11 and faced the media at a ceremony at the Yeoncheon Public Stadium in Yeoncheon-eup, Yeoncheon-gun, Gyeonggi Province. 

The two enlisted on Dec. 12, 2023 and fulfilled their 18-month military service at the Korean Army’s 5th Infantry Division.

"I will keep the grateful memories in my heart and cherish them for a long time,” Jimin said, Korean media reported.

Jungkook said, “I would like to thank the executives, my seniors and my peers. I am embarrassed but happy to be standing in front of the fans after such a long time.”

Jungkook and Jimin’s discharge came after BTS members RM and V completed their military service on June 10. 

The last member of BTS to be discharged is Suga, who will finish his mandatory duty on June 21. Members Jin and J-Hope finished their military service last year. 

The 2025 BTS Festa, celebrating BTS’ anniversary, will be held on June 13 and 14 at Kintex 2 Exhibition Halls 9 and 10 in Ilsanseo, Goyang, Gyeonggi, South Korea.
