Seem that there is no K-pop group's military service issue receiving as much attention as that of BTS. Today, when Big Hit Music announced BTS's military service schedule for next year, it became a hot potato for netizens and media.

The media and netizens discussed enthusiastically how BTS handled this incident. In particular, there were many compliments after the news of Jin's decision was posted:

On October 17, Jin made headlines around the world when, through his agency, Big Hit Music, announced that he would no longer delay his enlistment. Jin even applied to cancel his request to postpone his enlistment and will enlist in accordance with government regulations after the release of his single.

This moved the ARMY community and they gave many wishes and support for Jin's decision. Of course, ARMYs were also prepared for this, but were still quite surprised at the announcement that was made only a day after the Busan concert ended.

According to the stream of event, the Korean media has widely reported on this. They are also prioritizing reporting on Jin's enlistment and praising him whenever possible. Many netizens in Korea said that when the new news was announced, it took over media outlets across the country. Topics on television and even national broadcasters prioritized the announcement and discussion of Jin's enlistment.

In particular, many ARMYs shared that Korean news agencies also seem to be "shading" politicians.

Since the topic of BTS and the military was discussed, many people have accused the government of taking advantage of the group and only considering the exemption for their own financial gain. Not only that, many netizens also criticized the Korean government for complicating BTS's enlistment issue and asked them to stop meddling in BTS' enlistment matter.

However, even after Jin and BTS made the decision to definitely enlist in the army, the Ministry of Defense did not let them go. They even declare themselves: "The Ministry of National Defense plans to find ways to give BTS a chance to rehearse together even after joining the military so they can perform as seven overseas"

For many, this Defense Department intervention sparked anger because enlisted people could not make money from the schedule. So if BTS performs together, they won't be able to gain anything from it, but many believe the government can take advantage of the group's economic advantage.

But above all, Jin's decision to cancel the priority of postponing military service is a blow to the Ministry of National Defense as well as to the Korean Government. However, it's not just ARMYs who praise Jin for his decision. The media as well as many domestic and foreign netizens are also praising the idol for this decision.

Yonhap News tweeted the article with the caption, "The Reason For BTS’s Decision To Enlist… In BTS Fashion Is To Fulfill Their Promise.” For many, it praises idols for making their own decisions and fulfilling their promises to the country.

Other news and newspaper headlines were equally positive, with headlines like “BTS’s Eldest Jin Is The First To Salute” and [Breaking] BTS, Jin Will Be The First To Enlist… Withdraws Petition To Delay/ Yonhap News TV”. Not only major news agencies but also news Youtube channels also posted praise for Jin and also pointed out that Jin's determination while the Government took a lot of time to make a decision.

After the screenshot of the headline was shared, ARMYs couldn't stop sharing their happiness at Jin receiving so many compliments. For many people, it is refreshing to see them praising their idols and focusing their criticism on the government.

The fact that Jin solved the enlistment issue by himself made Korean netizens, media and ARMY extremely proud. Our boys have done their duty as citizens and it's ARMY's job to wait for them to come back and go on another great journey together without any problems!
