“Be careful of the chilly autumn weather. Stay healthy and see you all in 2025!” he affectionately added, providing reassurance to his fans during his absence.

It’s worth noting that Suga has been deemed unfit for regular combat duty, reportedly due to a shoulder injury. Consequently, he will serve as a social service agent, contributing to society in a different capacity.

As fans eagerly await his return, Suga’s temporary departure serves as a reminder of the dedication and sacrifice artists like him make for their country. BTS will undoubtedly continue to shine in his absence, and the ARMY eagerly anticipates the day when they can welcome Suga back with open arms.
