Hey there, fellow ARMY,
As I sit down to write this, my heart feels heavy with longing and nostalgia. It's been quite a while since our beloved BTS went on hiatus for their military enlistment. The absence of their radiant energy and infectious music has left a void in many of our lives, hasn't it?
I find myself scrolling through old concert videos, rewatching interviews, and listening to their songs on repeat, just to catch a glimpse of that familiar joy they always brought into our lives. It's not easy being without them, especially when they've been such a significant part of our daily routines and happiness.
But amidst this longing, I find solace in knowing that this hiatus is not the end of our journey with BTS. It's merely a temporary pause—a necessary step in their growth as individuals and artists. Just like how we, as fans, have grown alongside them over the years, supporting each other through thick and thin.
Let's take this moment to reflect on the incredible journey we've shared with BTS so far. From their humble beginnings to global superstardom, they've never failed to inspire us with their music, messages of self-love, and genuine connection with ARMY.

But let's not dwell on the emptiness. Instead, let's use this time to appreciate the memories we've made with BTS and look forward to the countless more to come.
