I think it&#8217;s a separate issue from the mindset that we faithfully and gladly serve the country. Yet BTS and I were talking about this since early 2018,&#8221; Bang Si-hyuk said when asked about the members&#8217; military obligations. &#8220;So it&#8217;s been long discussed, and we&#8217;re not done yet.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>&#8220;We&#8217;ve been prepared to turn this into a turning point in their career,&#8221; added the 50-year-old producer, who professionally goes by Hitman Bang. &#8220;It&#8217;s obviously true that they needed this time of rest after such an intense period of hard work. They can&#8217;t remain the BTS of today, but need to grow and change as artists.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span>RELATED CONTENT:\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.etonline.com\/bts-jin-completes-his-military-service-fans-rejoice-227212\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BTS&#8216; Jin has some big news!
