Korean news outlets have spilled the beans on the specifics of the BTS members’ mandatory military service.

Upon finishing his training, V will reportedly be assigned to the Special Mission Unit of the ROK Army’s Capital Defense Command, as he has reportedly applied for the position.
On December 11, RM will enlist as a regular active-duty soldier and start basic training at the Nonsan Centre. Rumours have it that Jimin and Jungkook are set to enlist on December 12 and start basic training at the New Recruit Training Center in Yeoncheon, where Jin is currently an assistant instructor, according to earlier reports today.
After receiving multiple reports regarding the members’ assignments, Big Hit Music has issued a brief statement stating that it is unable to confirm any details at this time.

When word got out that the Love Me Again singer had applied for a top-tier position, her legion of admirers wasted no time expressing their pride online. A high IQ and strong mental ability are prerequisites for recruitment in such a wing, according to some fans whose loved ones work there.
He is so cool for this. Always defying the norm. I know he is tougher physically and mentally than what he lets on and he will definitely win hearts and nail the training in the military. This is Kim Taehyung we are talking about. Nothing he does is average. Makes me proud.

Hyungsik was also in SDT and was trained also in the same area. After Taehyung finished his training there, he will be deployed in different MP areas. So right now, V has no specific barracks yet. With HS, he was deployed in Chuncheon under II corps. pic.twitter.com/75IFgtVA6F
