Jin, who enlisted earlier, recently held a special event during BTS’ 11th debut anniversary celebration in July 2024. The group’s FESTA celebration gave fans an opportunity to connect with the band and celebrate their decade-long journey.

BTS has produced a wide range of iconic tracks over the years, including Blood, Sweat, & Tears, Butter, ON, and Black Swan, in addition to their billion-view hits. The group has made history with multiple achievements, such as being the first K-pop act to be nominated for a Grammy Award.
Their continued success on YouTube and other platforms highlights BTS’ enduring global appeal and influence, even as the members fulfill their military duties. Fans worldwide eagerly await the group’s reunion, expected around 2025.
