When BTS finally reunited the group after three years, it was an emotional moment for the boys and fans.
When they appeared on Capital breakfast On Thursday, July 23, the iconic K-pop group opened up about their separation during their mandatory military service.
Jimin, who was the first of the group’s members to enlist in 2022, admitted that the moment they came together as a group in 2025 “felt like a family reunion.”
Members spoke candidly about how isolating the experience of military service can be. “I was just a little bored, because I didn’t have anyone who could understand me,” V admitted.
SUGA echoed this sentiment, saying, “I didn’t really have a lot of people to talk to. »
“There are peer counselors in the military,” V added. “But I’m not good at opening up. So I had no one to talk to about my concerns.”
After Jimin left, the remaining members followed through in staggered enlistments. This allowed them to keep their fans engaged through solo releases before officially reuniting last year.
The long-awaited return was historic to say the least. The band came together in the studio to create ARIRANGwhich spent three weeks at the top of the Billboard 200, before embarking on a world tour.
Earlier this month, BTS also joined Shakira, Madonna and Justin Bieber for the historic FIFA World Cup Final halftime show at MetLife Stadium.
