This amazing ride has only just begun.
It’s been less than 24 hours since Jin bid his BTS comrades farewell, but a lot has happened in ARMY’s “Mikromosmos.” Here’s a quick rundown of everything you might have missed.
Jin’s “Curtain Call”
Jin sent one last message to ARMY ogt the Weverse app before enlisting. Some idols may have expressed themselves through prose, but not this comedic monarch. Gamer Jin made fans laugh instead of cry by referring to a League of Legends character’s “Curtain Call” ability.
This is your curtain call.
(I ᴡanted to try saying this when I leave for the military.)
(This is what game character “Jhin” says).

Jin came in the 5th Infantry Division in Yeoncheon County, Gyeonggi Province, around 1:45 PM (KST) in one of six black KIAs. The other automobiles were filled with Jin’s family members who had come to see him leave.

Following the ceremony, BTS tweeted, “Our hyung! Go, and return safely! “I adore you!” she exclaimed, sharing two group shots.
In one, the members posed beautifully for the camera with Jin.
They playedfully touched Jin’s freshly shaved head with the other. For good fortune?
Military Service of Suga
Now that Jin’s military service has begun, all eyes are on Suga, the next-oldest BTS member.
According to Ilgan Sports, Suga has postponed his military service until the end of 2023, and due to his shoulder ailment, he would most likely enlist as a public servant rather than an active duty soldier.
J-Hope and Jin were seen in two of the images eating a lovely supper together. Jin prepared the food himself!
