BTS Jin recently informed ARMYs about his upcoming military drafting when a fan asked him about his birthday next month. However, the idol receives hateful comments for what he said.
BTS Jin hints that his military recruitment location is at a front-line base
On November 13, around midnight KST, a BTS member answered a fan question on Weverse, asking if he was excited about his birthday, which is December 4. The idol stated that he was not excited about them as he would enlist in the military at the front base.

The conversation between them looks like this:
ARMY: Oppa, it’s your birthday next month. Are you excited?
BTS Jin: No … I’m on the front line.
Based on his response, this could mean that the singer of “The Astronaut” will be deployed close to the border in the northern part of South Korea around the Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) that divides North and South Korea; Gyeonggi Province (Orange); or Gangwon Province (yellow).

As the winter season approaches, recruiters for the front divisions, especially in Gangwon Province, will likely have to deal with extreme shortages of cold and even hot water. Moreover, some training centers in Gangwon struggle with continuous, successive snowstorms during the winter months. Soldiers are often instructed to get up early and perform snow clearing duties.

Snow as if there was no tomorrow, at the front and everyday apprentices shovel snow with shovels. They have the least access to telephones, they are immediately defending if war breaks out and Jin gets cold very quickly. Damn it rocks, take me instead, let our baby stay, i beg of you! pic.twitter.com/4lnON6i6Yv

Jin cannot eat garlic and potatoes, Jin cannot sleep in cold places, Jin needs his RJ for comfort, Jin has to tell a joke about his dad once a day or his day is not complete, he loves his handsome face, he may not live without his members and he’s too gentle for that. TAKE ME INSTEAD.

“So just because he is sent to the front lines it causes all this confusion. Does it make sense, really?
“Is he groaning because he will be on the front line in the cold? Hahaha. It all depends on who is responsible for choosing his unit.”
“Jin is not the only one to cause a stir, other male idols also talked a lot. Some even cried when talking about recruiting journalists. “
“So just because he said he was” groaning “now? Hahaha.
