'Jin'(Bts) begins 18 months of his military service at 2 p.m. Tuesday(Dec. 13).
Jin shared a selfie of his short shaved hair on Monday in preparation for his 18 months of military service.
According to the South Korean military, the boot camp where Jin begins military service is that of the 5th Infantry Division in Yeoncheon, Gyeonggi Province.
Jin will be admitted to the boot camp with around 200 other new soldiers.
After five weeks of basic training in Yeoncheon, Jin will be placed in a military unit.
Along with the photo, Jin wrote, “It looks cuter than I thought.”
Jin, born in 1992, is the oldest among the BTS members and will be the first to serve in the military.
Military duty is compulsory for all able-bodied men in South Korea between the ages of 18 and 28.
Big Hit Music, the agency 'BTS', announced that there will not be any official event held on Jin’s admission day. The agency urged fans and media to avoid visiting the boot camp to prevent any cases of emergency.
The agency added that Jin will drive into the 5th Infantry Division's boot camp without a farewell.
"For safety management, the Army and related ministries, we will make sure there are no safety loopholes at the scene," said an Army official.
'RM', 'Suga', 'Jimin', 'J-hope', 'V' and 'Jungkook' will be enlisting in the military in order, according to 'BigHit Music'.
Since June, BTS has been on a hiatus from group activities to take a break and focus on solo careers.
