Just like Jin, since his enlistment, j-hope has become the center of attention in the army. He has always stood out for his status as well as his good personality and talent but even when he was in the m̷i̷l̷i̷t̷a̷r̷y̷, j-hope stood out even more with a trait that surprised many people.
Recently, a topic suddenly became hot on SNS after a photo of j-hope performing a m̷i̷l̷i̷t̷a̷r̷y̷ ceremony was revealed. Through this photo, netizens can't stop talking about how outstanding j-hope is compared to other male teammates in the army.
As for ARMYs, fans can't help but admire that detail but are also very proud that j-hope has successfully completed his basic training:
Since March of this year, j-hope has joined the army and performed his m̷i̷l̷i̷t̷a̷r̷y̷ service. Even though it's only been a few weeks since he enlisted, fans are already ṃïṩṩïńġ him and eagerly awaiting any updates from him.
j-hope has always been known for his speedy Instagram updates but now, while doing his m̷i̷l̷i̷t̷a̷r̷y̷ service, he seems to have disappeared from the social network. Until recently, when j-hope performed his graduation ceremony after 5 weeks of basic training, new fans once again received a notification from his Instagram account.
He looks very prominent and, of course, makes fans flutter with his visuals on graduation day.
However, that is not what makes fans and even non-fans talk about the most. A photo taken by j-hope's division and posted on The Camp that includes him and his teammates has been shared. Since then, it has created a huge discussion and netizens can't help but wonder about the difference between j-hope and his teammates for a special reason!
Specifically, looking at the photo, it can be seen that j-hope stands out in the crowd even though he stands at the end of the male line thanks to his height. Despite standing at the end of the line consisting of male rookies, he clearly seems to be the tallest of the people in the photo.
And it really gives a very distinct sense of j-hope from the rest. Meanwhile, netizens and fans are finding it quite amusing as this goes unnoticed in cases when j-hope takes pictures with BTS members or stands with other idols.
Fans are often familiar with the fact that j-hope is not the tallest member of the group at 177cm (or about 5'9.5″). Compared to other members like Jungkook, Jin and RM, he is easily surpa̾s̾sed by them in terms of height, so in the photos taken with BTS, j-hope doesn't have much difference.
However, when seen with the other men he is working with in the m̷i̷l̷i̷t̷a̷r̷y̷, it turns out that he looks quite large in comparison. It goes to show that no matter where j-hope is or who he's with, he's definitely the embodiment of sunshine and can't be overshadowed!
Netizens couldn't help but marvel at the image of j-hope in the army:
- Daebak… He didn’t seem all that tall within his group.
- Wow. How tall are the guys in front of him?
- Some of you saying he doesn’t have good proportions… Y’all need to go get your eyes checked.
- So what? Stop comparing a celeb to non-celeb men who probably don’t even want to be there. They got drafted by the country. They don’t deserve to have their picture analyzed like this.
- When this picture first made its way to Twitter, people had trouble spotting J-Hope. The fans said, “He’s the one that has the best physique.” But all of them looked about the same
- These poor random army men minding their business catching strays
- Okay but why is he a whole head taller than everyone lmao
- They put the sun at the back and he'll be standing out
Meanwhile, ARMYs also expressed similar interest and more happiness to see j-hope complete training safely and healthily. Even more good news is that following Jin, j-hope continues to complete and pa̾s̾s the m̷i̷l̷i̷t̷a̷r̷y̷ tests to become a boarding instructor.
This also means that he will perform the role of a rookie instructor right at the barracks where he enlists for basic training. In about a few weeks, j-hope will be allowed to see his family as well as be allowed to use the phone.
