SUGA completes military service two days before official discharge ¡ª BTS now fully reunited as all members return

ARMYs, we¡¯ve waited patiently, and now we finally get to say it: Suga is back! The BTS rapper has officially wrapped up his alternative military service, days ahead of schedule. Though his official discharge date is June 21, he completed his final day of duty on June 18, sparking excitement across the fandom.

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 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.
