Informations about BTS Military services
As of my last knowledge update in January 2022, South Korea has mandatory military service requirements for all able-bodied men between the ages of 18 and 28. However, due to BTS's immense global influence and contributions to the cultural and economic promotion of South Korea, they were granted a privilege by the government.
In December 2020, South Korea passed a revision to the Military Service Act allowing K-pop artists who have made significant cultural contributions to receive exemptions or deferments from mandatory military service. This amendment took into account the positive impact BTS has had on South Korea's cultural image worldwide.
However, the specifics of how this law will be applied to BTS or any other eligible artists were not explicitly outlined at that time. The decision regarding military service for BTS members will likely be handled according to the provisions and guidelines set forth by the South Korean government.
Please note that situations and policies could have evolved or changed since then, so I recommend checking the latest news for any updates on BTS and their military service.
