V, discharged from the 6th Division, also expressed his excitement to reunite with fans. “I really want to express my gratitude to everyone who has been waiting,” he said, before teasing, “If you wait just a little more, we’ll be back with an amazing performance.” Both idols also took the occasion to give a shoutout to their fellow military soldiers, with V echoing RM’s words, saying: ” Thank you to my military base and seniors. I will work hard as I return to civilian life to be a good and cool person.”
With three more BTS members back in civilian life (Jungkook, Jimin, and Suga), the countdown to a full group reunion is officially on!
