BTS: A quick history
BTS (Bangtan Sonyeondan) consists of seven members: RM (Kim Namjoon), the leader and rapper; Jin (Kim Seokjin), the eldest and vocalist; Suga (Min Yoongi), rapper; J-Hope (Jung Hoseok), main dancer and rapper; Jimin (Park Jimin), dancer and vocalist; Taehyung (Kim Taehyung), vocalist; and Jungkook (Jeon Jungkook), dancer and main vocalist.
The group made their official debut in June 2013. Their fandom, ARMY, was officially named the following month.
In 2022, they announced a pause in their group activities to prepare for their mandatory military service. Jin enlisted in December 2022, after completing the promotion of his single Astronaut. He performed the song with Coldplay at the English band's concert in Argentina.
J-Hope followed in April this year. He is the first South Korean Act to headline a main stage at a major US music festival (Lollapalooza).
Suga is the latest to enlist in September, not in the military due to his shoulder injury but as a social service agent. Before that, the NBA ambassador embarked on a solo world tour for his album, D-Day.
The rest of the members RM, Jimin, Taehyung and Jungkook have initiated their military enlistment process and will follow by the end of the year or early 2024.
BTS is set to reunite in 2025, after all seven members complete their mandatory military service.
