On the 21st of this month, SUGA sent his first official greeting to fans on Weverse after 2 years of military service. He is also the last member of BTS to be discharged from the army, ending BTS's 3-year hiatus and starting a new era.

A few days ago, кσяєαn media reported that SUGA had completed his duty on the 18th and used his annual leave to discharge earlier than expected. However, it was not until the 21st that SUGA officially announced his discharge without any separate official event.

Since he enlisted as a social service worker in September 2023, fans have not received any news from him for a long time. Therefore, when SUGA started with: "Hello, ARMYs, nice to meet you. It's me SUGA. It's been like 2 years. How have you all been doing?", fans burst into tears of happiness.

"I'm greeting you all after a long time since I'll be officially completing my service today. It's also a day I've been waiting for, and since it's been a really long time, I thought a lot about how to greet you. First of all, before anything, I'd like to say sincerely thank you very much to you all for waiting till now. I really missed you", he continued. 

SUGA then also mentioned his guilt after the drunk driving incident in August last year: "I've spent the past 2 years thinking deeply about myself. I also felt the need to take a step back— especially from the work I'd been doing for so long and distance myself (and look at it). All this time, I've only been focused on moving forward, barely taking the time to look at myself, but this period gave me the opportunity and time to look back at myself. ARMYs, thank you and thank you again for waiting.  

And I'm sorry for causing disappointment and worries with the incident last year. More than anything, I was upset by the fact that I hurt you all. I was also very sorry to the members who had to go through a heavy heart in each of their positions because of me. I'll work hard even more to repay all the love you've given me. I love you. I'll keep you guys posted time to time."

At that time, there was a lot of negative news surrounding SUGA and the fandom. SUGA was also held responsible for the incident and was fined 15 million won. Since then, the BTS rapper has deeply reflected and felt remorse for the group members and fans who were affected by his mistake.

In response to SUGA's feelings, fans reαѕѕured him that the incident was not serious after he learned his lesson. ARMYs also expressed their eagerness to look forward to his appearance:

- He’s Finally back !! Our kitty Yoongi… hugs and smiles everywhere wooohooo!!

- I wanna be by his side just to tell him that he didn't disappointed any of us, those doing all that were antis not armys, that armys defended him every day, that we literally counted every single day for his return and that we missed and love him so much

- He didn’t need to apologize. It’s like the last piece of the puzzle has been locked into place. Don’t leave us for this long ever again.

- The war is over ....Welcome home yoongi !

- Instant tears at "How have you all been doing" cos i want to cry and tell him how am I, how are we as ARMY, more than anything how badly i wanted to know how he is

- We ain't disappointed. Great you back well and safely that's what we prayed for the most

- We can truly say, we made it!!!All 7 back to where they truly belong…Home, with us. Welcome back, Yoongi!

- I still think of Hobi's dad tenderly touching his face....Hobi's dad was ALL OF US, YOONGI!! Welcome back 

- Man. I love him. Dunno what else to say to describe the feeling when I'm reading his words.

- I love you so much Yoongi. We are so so proud of you. Not to say sorry because it's over

- I knew even now he has that in his heart. Please TELL HIM HE DIDN'T DISAPPOINT ANYONE

- Why are everyone apologizing first jk, then jm now yoongi. No theyre too good for us

- HE'S BACK NOTHING IS WRONG NOW

With SUGA completing his military service on the 21st, all seven members of BTS have returned as the world's top Kpop boy group. On this day, domestic and foreign media showed special interest in the upcoming continuation of their 'full group activities'.
