V enlisted for his mandatory military training in December 2023. This was after he passed his Capital Defence Command’s Special Mission Team (SDT) entrance exam. Subsequently, he received additional training necessary at the Army General Administration School. Following this, he was assigned to a unit. Currently, he is serving as a member of the Special Forces Unit of the Military Police Corps under the 2nd Army Corps in Chuncheon, Gangwon Province. V’s going to return to civilian life following his discharge on June 10.

Following his return, fans wait for the return of the septet for the highly awaited BTS comeback slated for this year. Fans can once again expect RM (leader), Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V and Jungkook to take over the music scene. Recently, J-Hope revealed tantalising details about the group’s comeback. Moreover, reports also suggest that a new album is on the way following the completion of the members’ military service. Additionally, once all the members are back from the military, a World Tour can also be on the cards.

While BTS has been on a hiatus from group activities, members have been dropping solo stints.
