As they finally saw their favorite boy group reunited once again, fans can't help it but feel bittersweet at the moment, as it was BTS's last OT7 picture until the end of their mandatory service.
On the same day of their reunion, eldest and vocalist member Jin posted photos on Instagram together with V and RM with the captioned: "go and come back safely without getting hurt my babies."
He also posted another photo with J-Hope saying, "Sergeant corporal (on vacation)."
All six members are now training in service as active-duty soldiers while Min Yoongi, or known as Suga, is under public service due to his previous shoulder injury.
BTS will be back in 2025 as stated by their agency, BigHit Music, where all members signed exclusive contracts last September 2023.
While waiting, ARMYs can enjoy their upcoming docuseries titled BTS Monuments: Beyond The Star which will be streamed on Disney + on December 20.
