A week has pa̾s̾sed since Jimin and Jungkook enlisted at Yeoncheon Training Center. For fans, it was almost the longest time they couldn't update news about the members in over 10 years. So it's clear that ARMYs now expect news from the barracks more than ever.

Not disappointing fans, on the 21st of this month, the army also released the first photos of Jimin and Jungkook in the army. A series of new pictures of the two practicing with other rookies were released, making fans unable to control their tears of happiness.

If you missed this latest news, catch it in full below:

Most fans know that for at least a month of basic training, it is difficult for pictures of m̴i̴l̴i̴t̴a̴r̴y̴ members to get out unless the m̴i̴l̴i̴t̴a̴r̴y̴ releases them. ARMYs have gone a week without any new updates related to the members and the members' hunger for news is growing stronger by the day.

Fortunately, the m̴i̴l̴i̴t̴a̴r̴y̴ also understands what fans are waiting for. After the first week of basic training in the barracks, they provided the first photos of Jimin and Jungkook at the Yeoncheon Training Center. Pictures of the two were posted on The Camp app, causing fans to immediately stir.

There are many posted photos showing the two youngest members of the group in the process of practicing basic shooting. Along with other recruits, they wore m̴i̴l̴i̴t̴a̴r̴y̴ uniforms and were seriously trained. Jimin and Jungkook seem to have adapted well to m̴i̴l̴i̴t̴a̴r̴y̴ life compared to when they first entered school.

Although the pictures of the two do not show their faces clearly and are mostly taken with other teammates, fans still recognize their appearance. ARMYs couldn't stop choking up when they saw the official pictures of Jimin and Jungkook in the barracks.

They expressed their feelings all over SNS in the hours after the image was released:

- Fighting our Jungkookie, Jiminie... you can do this tough training. We support you all the way until D-1 comes

- it just ḧïẗ me that Jungkook and Jimin have never been apart from each other since they were teenagers. not even during m̴i̴l̴i̴t̴a̴r̴y̴ service 

- I wish you two, stay healthy and safe
