The third member from the South Korean band BTS to begin his military service is Suga aka Min Yoongi. Jin and J-hope have already been enlisted and serving their mandatory military service. On Sunday morning, BigHit Music made the official announcement of Suga's enlistment date.

The label announced that there would be no official events held on the day of his service or the day he entered the training camp. "We kindly ask fans to refrain from visiting SUGA at his workplace during the period of his service. Please convey your warm regards and encouragement in your hearts only," the label requested.
