Today, the last members of BTS, Jimin and Jungkook, enlisted in the army as companions. Both enlisted in the army with two families, j-hope and SUGA, sending them off. But this makes fans wonder about Jin's presence.
Previously, Jin and 4 other BTS members saw RM and V off to the army yesterday, December 11. Therefore, many people are curious as to why he did not come to see Jimin and Jungkook off today like he with j-hope, RM and V. Finally, the answer was found by ̾k̾o̾r̾e̾an media.
Below are detailed information showing why Jin did not appear on Jimin and Jungkook's enlistment day:
Jimin and Jungkook arrived at Yeoncheon Training Center on December 12 to begin their m̴i̴l̴i̴t̴a̴r̴y̴ service. The story that Jimin and Jungkook will enlist at the 5th Infantry Division Recruit Training Center - where Jin is also working as an a̾s̾sistant instructor - was revealed many days ago, but вιg нιт Music has maintained silence when interviewed.
Finally, today, the news was confirmed after ̾k̾o̾r̾e̾an media reported that the last 2 members of BTS enlisted in the army with the send-off of two families, j-hope and SUGA. But this news also surprised fans because Jin was not mentioned in it. Apparently, Jin came to see off RM and V yesterday and even the place where Jimin and Jungkook enlisted this time was the same barrack where Jin is enlisting, but he did not appear with them.
Many questions and concerns were raised, even creating controversies until ̾k̾o̾r̾e̾an media revealed the truth about the reason for Jin's absence. It is known that Jin asked for a day off on December 11 - the day RM and V enlisted - to see them off. Meanwhile, Jin must return to the unit on December 12, which is also the day Jimin and Jungkook enlist to perform the duties of an a̾s̾sistant instructor for Tiger Hamchi (higher level training). Therefore, he cannot see off or "welcome" Jimin and Jungkook to 5th Division.
Newsen reported that: "Jin, who had taken leave the day before to see off V and RM, returned to his unit (5th Division) after seeing them off and was confirmed to be on duty on Dec 12"

But the fact that Jimin and Jungkook did basic training here also shows that the chance that the three of them can meet each other is very high. Especially on holidays, Jimin, Jin and Jungkook can meet for a long time to confide. So even when they enlisted, the BTS trio stayed closer together than the other members.
One thing worth noting is that Dispatch also pointed out that even if Jimin and Jungkook become new recruits at the Yeoncheon Training Center, Jin cannot be their direct instructor. It's "unfortunate" that those who enlist on December 12 will be in Company 10 while Jin is in Company 11. So, Jin will not be Jimin and Jungkook's a̾s̾sistant coach but once again, we want to remind that they still have the opportunity to meet each other in the boot camp because they belongs to the 5th Division.
With this information, fans can completely understand Jin's absence and look forward to a reunion of the three at bootcamp:
- Now we wait and hope for Seokjin's update
- He traveled 300 km (one way) just for seeing them off no one can love the boys the way kim seokjin loves them
- a sergeant, a squad leader, a special cla̾s̾s warrior, an a̾s̾sistant drill instructor and a lot more... our hardworking jinnie is a busy bee, he is back to work!
- as a sergeant and squad leader, his presence is probably very much needed since there are hundreds of new recruits enlisting...
- For sure they will find the time to see each other soon
- So Jin is on duty today. They're sure gonna meet anyways.. For lunch time or later.
- At least they have chance to meet each others in the boot camp
- I'm sure that thay have many opportunities at the time training here
- Jin will support and witness their babies. They will meet each others soon
