These days, ARMYs are enjoying the content provided by BTS even after they have enlisted. Although it was a difficult time for fans when BTS was absent for a long time for the first time in 10 years, recently, fans have been comforted by the members in many other ways.
Besides Jimin releasing a new song for Christmas, j-hope surprised ARMYs when he shared a series of new photos from his recent vacation. This appearance on Instagram made fans not only excited but also extremely excited.
However, behind the photos that j-hope updates on his personal account, they are not just images to share with fans but also have a very special meaning. After discovering this, ARMYs couldn't help but feel moved:
ARMYs are all aware that when BTS members enlist, they will be under m̷i̷l̷i̷t̷a̷r̷y̷ control and strict laws. Therefore, there are many things BTS cannot do during their m̷i̷l̷i̷t̷a̷r̷y̷ service, such as regularly updating Instagram or interacting with fans.
Since the BTS members enlisted, it has been almost impossible for ARMYs to update any news or pictures from them because of m̷i̷l̷i̷t̷a̷r̷y̷ restrictions. But in some ways, this cannot stop BTS from giving fans surprise gifts. From the release of documentaries, sweet songs for fans during Christmas and especially the return of Instagram superstar - j-hope.
On the afternoon of the 22nd of this month, j-hope posted some photos on his personal page as well as his Instagram Story after a long time of not updating his account. The published photo shows j-hope dining at the restaurant of luxury brand Louis Vuitton - the brand for which he is an amba̾s̾sador.
Not disappointing his fans, j-hope professionally posed and showed off his unique fashion style. Fans' attention was drawn to his cute hat and jacket. j-hope's recent appearance has filled the fan community with excitement and surprise because it is like a comfort to ARMYs on days when their members are мιѕѕιиg.
But one thing that caught ARMYs' attention more is that besides his photos, j-hope also shared on Instagram Story Jimin's new song released on the same day. Closer Than This is Jimin's sweet letter to ARMYs before enlisting with promises about the day the group reunites with their fans. j-hope learned about the song's release and came to support Jimin's new song on this day.
As it turns out, his appearance is not a coincidence but a habit since the advent of Instagram. j-hope almost never misses any of the group members' solo promotions and always uses his personal account to share their new songs, performances or projects. When realizing this, fans felt surprised and touched by the love he had for his members.
ARMYs expressed their feelings upon learning the reason for j-hope's return to Instagram:
