SUGA completes military service two days before official discharge — BTS now fully reunited as all members return
Suga completes his military service ahead of official discharge
Suga fulfilled his service as a public service worker, an alternate form of mandatory military service, having enlisted on September 22, 2023, due to previous shoulder surgery. And he wrapped it all up efficiently by using his remaining annual leave, which is a standard and approved process, according to the Yonhap News Agency.
That means he's technically on leave until June 21 but functionally free to rejoin the world and eventually the stage. He also completed basic military training during his service, proving once again his commitment to both duty and discipline.
Suga spotted at J-Hope's concert, cheering for a mini Bangtan reunion
Suga was last seen in public on June 13, attending J-Hope's encore solo concert finale at the Goyang Sports Complex Main Stadium, which coincided with BTS' annual Festa celebration. Dressed in a beanie and mask, he kept a low profile in the crowd, but fans quickly caught on and were thrilled to spot him along with other members. His pics and videos, shared widely online, felt like the soft beginning of BTS's long-awaited reunion as Jin and Jungkook joined J-Hope on the stage.

All BTS members have now completed military service
Now that SUGA has officially completed his military service, BTS is finally seven again. The long-awaited full reunion is no longer a distant dream, marking the end of an era where fans had to cheer on the members one enlistment at a time. Jin was the first to return in June 2024, followed by J-Hope in October. This month, RM and V were discharged together on June 10, while Jimin and Jungkook came back just a day later on June 11. And with SUGA finishing up his duties ahead of schedule on June 18, the group is now officially complete for the first time since late 2022.
With the emotional wave of BTS FESTA 2025 still fresh, and the members now reunited and reenergised, fans are now looking forward to what's next. A HYBE official recently confirmed that the group will release new music in March 2026, but an official announcement is awaited.

Rishabh Pant Cracks 'Engagement' Joke With Yuzvendra Chahal Amid RJ Mahvash Dating Rumours
Ignored Indian cricket team spinner Yuzvendra Chahal was the subject of a hilarious 'engagement' joke from Rishabh Pant amid dating rumours involving RJ Mahvash. Chahal got divorced from Dhanashree Verma earlier this year and there have been a lot of chatter around his rumoured relationship with RJ Mahvesh after both of them were spotted together on several occasions. Archana Puran Singh recently dropped a Behind The Scenes (BTS) vlog from the shoot of Kapil Sharma's show where Pant was seen having fun with Chahal. Pant jokingly put a ring on Chahal's finger while Archana commented, 'Are you now engaged to him?' Rishabh was quick to reply 'Iski toh ho chuki hai pehle (He is already engaged)'. Yuzi clarified and joked "Jaa bhi chuki hai (It is over as well)". It was a reference to his divorce with Dhanashree that was finalised this year. The conversation did not end there as Archana invited Chahal to visit her home in Mumbai but added that he must be too busy to make the journey. However, Pant said - 'He is here all the time!" Chahal was amused with the exchange as he replied - 'Sabko bata de tu (Why don't you just announce it to everyone?)" Rishabh left everyone in splits as he started shouting on the set. Meanwhile, amid the India vs England Test series, a video clip from a Netflix broadcast of a 'Kapil Sharma Show' episode involving Rishabh Pant, Yuzvendra Chahal and Gautam Gambhir is going viral. "In most families there is a jethani who's calling the shots. Who is such a player? Someone who orders everyone, even if they're just taking advantage of their seniority," Kapil Sharma can be seen asking. "Rohit bhai is like that," Rishabh Pant said. "Maine kaha, Rohit ka naam lele, abb toh retire ho gaya (Take Rohit's name, he's retired now)," Gambhir said with a smile on his face.
