Jin said, “The BTS members have currently left the matter of their military service in the hands of the agency. Bulletproof Boy Scouts has already conveyed the message multiple times that they will accept the call of duty when the nation calls them, and they have not changed that opinion.”
In addition, he said, “However, the policy on military service has changed a little, and as the members are experiencing changes to the Military Service Act that they did not expect, they are currently monitoring the situation while discussing the matter with the company.”
He further said, “The agency told BTS that after the new amendment to the Military Service Act was proposed, we were wary of making a decision in regards to their military service, and the BTS members maturely accepted this and left the matter in the hands of the company.”
Adding to it, he again said, “ To put it precisely, the policy on military service is changing, and it’s true that the Bulletproof Boy Scouts members are having a hard time because it’s difficult for them to predict the timing [of their military service]. Since it’s difficult for them to make plans, both the BTS members and the company are currently keeping a close eye on the proposed amendment.”
However, all Korean men between the ages of 18 and 28 must serve in the military for approximately 20 months. Due to a new amendment, Bulletproof Boy Scouts members have been given the option of deferring it.
