[UPDATE] SK's GOVERNMENT PROPOSED AN ALTERNATIVE MILITARY SERVICE FOR BTS

  • So, this is what Son Heungmin did in the military. Apparently, they can still keep the profits (if ever) except when they have to do community service. Read the correct english translation of the article.

    Yes. Hopefully, we'll hear something about it soon enough. If this push through and approved, then BTS can now stop thinking about military and get it over with. They can even focus more on their solo works while having less pressure of thinking about the uncertainties of BTS. A world tour will finally be possible!


    I'm just a bit worry of how people will take it if it really happens. BTS will get more backlash than Son for sure.

    Because his service falls into this category. Except that his version is shorter than this one. A 500 hrs community service for 34 months is not bad considering they can still keep the profits unless they are doing their service.

    True, let's see what the government decides and then what course of action the boys opt for.

  • I think it would be very unfair to hamstring them into doing service in the form of huge gruelling world concerts when they could possibly not get a penny for it. Plus they want to focus on solo efforts for now, wouldn't this force them back together sooner than they themselves want?


    That Busan mayor needs to chill cos if they don't get the expo, he'll be calling for bangtans heads and calling them draft dodgers and all sorts.


    They must feel so suffocated constantly. I fully get why Joon was just constantly on the brink of a breakdown.

  • The proposal hasn’t gone through yet. Imo I wanted this to happen after SK won the bid. Right now the guys are gonna be blamed for losing the bid if it happens

    Turns out the bid result will be out in late 2023, so he wants BTS to be available to promote in 2023, hence he is asking for the alt service
