BTS SUGA’s Official Enlistment Date to the South Korean Military Has Been Set

In a significant development for BTS fans worldwide, the official enlistment date for BTS member SUGA has been announced by the group's label. SUGA will become the fourth member of BTS to commence his military service, following in the footsteps of his bandmates. The label has officially revealed that SUGA's military service will span the next 18 months, marking a temporary hiatus from his activities with BTS. The statement issued by the label clarifies that SUGA will undertake his military duties, although it does not specify whether he will be joining active military duty.

SUGA's enlistment is scheduled to commence on the 22nd of September, marking the beginning of his temporary departure from BTS activities.
