Perhaps the last days of the year are the days that make ARMYs feel the most nervous because they don't know when Jin will enlist. ARMYs probably weren't looking forward to this moment the most anyway because they had to be away from Jin for a very long time anyway.
However, recently ARMYs have discovered many hints that Jin is ready to enlist and prepare for this trip. Most recently, Jin saw Jin's luggage being prepared and this item made them feel like their hearts were breaking.
BIG HIT Music announced the enlistment of BTS members in mid-October. The first person in BTS to enlist is Jin and the enlistment will be conducted after the release of a solo single. Jin will serve in the military as an active-duty soldier for 18 months.
In early November, Jin was reported to have filed an application to cancel his enlistment until the age of 30 that he had previously submitted. According to the regulations of the Ministry of Defense, when the application is approved, it also means that Jin will be called up to join the army at any time. Therefore, many sources believe that Jin will enlist at the end of this year.
Meanwhile, during a live broadcast, Jin also said that he will be enlisting in the winter. During a chat on Weverse Live, Jin also revealed that he will be on the "frontline" for his birthday. That means Jin will enlist around late November or early December.
This news makes ARMY quite sad because of course, even with mental preparation, having to face 2 years without Jin's appearance also makes ARMY feel very missed and worried for him. Not only that, recently ARMY also discovered a detail that made many people cry. That is the fact that Jin always has a military backpack by his side.
In the video recording the creation of The Astronaut, there is a scene where Jin sits in a room and chats with Chris Martin via video call. There is one thing in particular that has caught the attention of fans and netizens, which is a large army backpack placed on the ground. This military backpack contains a lot of stuff so it can be seen that it is sealed.
This, according to ARMYs and netizens, also means that his departure date is near and Jin is always getting ready to start performing his duties. ARMYs are both sad but also full of support for Jin's spirit of readiness when the country needs and hope that he will have a healthy and safe enlistment.
What's more, what hurts ARMY more is that although Jin has been away from ARMY for 2 years, he has given a lot of thought and responsibility with his goodbye to ARMY. Jin has released a solo album for ARMY, participated in many entertainment programs and created content to comfort ARMY.
More specifically, he created Wootteo as an alternate version of him taking care of ARMYs during his enlistment. And even a recent message that Wootteo posted made ARMYs notice that Jin's enlistment time is coming. Wootteo posted a status line with a photo away from "my universe": "0rr3; bye my universe ;0rr3
0rr3; lets see each other again soon ;0rr3"
Although knowing that this moment will come, ARMY's heart still won't stop sobbing!
