The members’ decision to enlist has ended a four year long debate on whether they should be exempt from military service as a result of their international success. Despite the confusion and debate, BTS have always affirmed that when the time comes, they will be happy to serve their country.
The news of their enlistment has been met with praise not only domestically, but internationally for their ‘courageous’ and ‘brave’ decision to take time out even with their historic successes. The news was also received well by their passionate fanbase (called ARMY) in online spaces who are willing to wait for them to complete their duty and regroup in 2025.
As the announcement concludes: ‘Yet To Come (The Most Beautiful Moment)' is more than a track from their latest album, it is a promise, there’s much more yet to come in the years ahead from BTS. From this, it is safe to say that BTS and ARMYs are confident that group activities after a long hiatus will be bigger and even more successful than they have been previously.
