Jin, the oldest member of bts_bighit, began his 18 months of mandatory military service at a front-line South Korean boot camp Tuesday as fans gathered near the base to say goodbye to their star.
About 20-30 fans — some holding Jin’s photos — and dozens of journalists gathered near the camp. But Jin didn’t meet them as a vehicle carrying him moved into the boot camp without getting him out.
Hours before entering the camp, Jin — whose real name is Kim Seok-jin — wrote on the online fan platform Weverse that “It’s time for a curtain call.” He posted a photo of himself Sunday with a military buzzcut and a message saying, “Ha ha ha. It’s cuter than I had expected.” Exemptions or dodging of duties are a highly sensitive issue in South Korea, where the draft forces young men to suspend their studies or professional careers. Defense Minister Lee Jong-sup and Lee Ki Sik, head of South Korea’s enlistment office, previously said it would beto ensure fairness in the country’s military service.
