After lawfully procrastinating for several years, BTS member j-hope is now joining in the South Korean military for his required service.

The group’s record company, BIGHIT MUSIC, released a statement on Sunday saying, “We would like to tell our fans that J-hope has begun the military recruitment procedure by filing for the termination of his enlistment deferment.”

he said, “Until he completes his military service and returns safely, we beg for your continuing love and support for J-hope.

According to news, by the time they are 28 years old, almost all physically fit men in Korea are obligated to serve for at least 18 months in the military. Men sometimes have the option to wait till they are older, as demonstrated by some members of BTS.

The second member of the popular group to sign up for conscription is J-Hope. The eldest member of the gang, Jin, declared his intention to enlist two months ago.

According to news reports, Big Hit earlier declared that all seven members of BTS would complete their required military service.

BTS announced last year that as they started their “new chapter” together, the band members planned to release both group and solo projects. The declaration was made following an apparent breakup announcement made by RM, Jungkook, J-hope, Jin, V, Jimin, and Suga during the group’s annual FESTA dinner in June.

The members of the two-time Grammy-nominated group “will allow themselves to express their individuality through the release of solo albums and collaborations with other artists,” according to a statement from HYBE, the agency that represents BTS. “The group will remain active as a team while taking individual journey to further achieve personal growth,” the statement added.

At the moment, BIGHIT MUSIC, the parent company of HYBE, stated, “With new solo and group endeavor’s, BTS is starting a new chapter. Members will use this time to grow personally through a variety of new activities, and we anticipate that this will further solidify the groundwork for the group’s long-term success as a unit. The musicians will receive active backing from BIGHIT MUSIC.”

To be clear, they are not on sabbatical, but will take some time to consider certain solo projects at this time and remain active in several different media, a group representative added to Pitchfork.
