BTS' RM, V, Jimin and Jungkook to greet fans at designated locations post-discharge; BIGHIT says, ‘Refrain from visiting'
The big BTS reunion is just around the corner, and fans across the globe have already mapped out grand plans to welcome the septet—flying across oceans, fan banners, and full-blown projects. Now, BIGHIT MUSIC has dropped the much-awaited update on the remaining members still serving: Kim Taehyung, Kim Namjoon, Jeon Jungkook, and Park Jimin, all set for discharge in the coming week. Ahead of that, each of them will address fans and the nation from designated spots (not their bases) in brief, closed-door moments limited to staff, where they'll share thoughts on their time in uniform and what's coming next. Also read: BTS loses global dominance to rising K-pop stars who just beat Kendrick Lamar and Billie Eilish in album sales On June 5, the K-pop agency revealed that RM and V, who enlisted together but served in different units (with the Winter Bear crooner choosing to serve in SDT, the anti-terrorism counter unit, while the rapper served in STF for capital defence), will greet fans from Chuncheon. Meanwhile, Jimin and Jungkook, who enlisted under the soldier companionship program, will do so in Yeoncheon. 'Rather than at their respective bases, they will deliver brief messages and share their thoughts on being discharged at separate designated locations,' the agency said, according to Soompi. The agency further asked fans to refrain from visiting the military bases for security reasons and also mentioned that since there won't be any official events at the base, the narrow roads and limited space could pose a risk if a crowd gathers. 'We kindly ask that you refrain from visiting the military bases,' they added. The Bang Si Hyuk-led agency has not commented on whether the members will kick off their return with any public events or meet-and-greet sessions like they did during Jin's arrival. However, HYBE, in their earlier statement, said that the reunion will follow a detailed process on how the group will progress further. It's worth noting that all the remaining members serving right now have already wrapped up their solo schedules before enlistment, so it's highly unlikely they'll instantly begin working on the same. There are reports of individual world tours, especially in the case of Jungkook, but that remains to be seen. Also read: NewJeans makes final call on HYBE settlement after reading fans' letters: ADOR issues statement Jin and J-Hope returned by the end of 2024 and have since released a slew of tracks. The 'Arson' crooner added 'Dreams' feat. Miguel and MONA LISA to his catalogue, and announced a tour titled Killin' It Girl just a week earlier. He's currently touring the world with his impressive setlist, playing to sold-out stadiums and landing a spot on Billboard's cover. Meanwhile, Jin, post-military, released one full-length solo album, Happy, and made his comeback with Echo in April and May 2025. As for SUGA, who's currently serving in the public sector instead of active duty due to his shoulder injury, he's set to wrap up service on June 21.

Chandu Salimkumar slams Vinayakan: 'Same person who praised my father now criticises him'
(Picture Courtesy: Facebook) A Facebook post by actor Vinayakan has triggered sharp reactions in the Malayalam film industry, particularly from Chandu Salimkumar, son of veteran actor Salim Kumar . Vinayakan, in a now-deleted post shared on the last day, said against individuals who speak out against drug abuse, mocking them as 'alcohol addicts' who have 'ruined all their organs' yet preach to the youth. His controversial post equated alcohol, cannabis, and even women as intoxicants, questioning the credibility of those attempting to raise awareness. Vinayakan also called such people 'dead bodies' who should stay away from public platforms and claimed cinema itself was a drug, accusing others of trying to push their children into the industry for profit. Soon after the post went viral, and later deleted, the netizens started speculating whether the 'Jailer' actor was aiming at Salim Kumar. Vinayakan steps into controversy over 'Who is Oommen Chandy' statement Chandu Salim Kumar's response - 'When Vinayakan first met me…' Chandu Salimkumar hit back directly in a Facebook thread. Recalling a personal interaction, Chandu wrote, 'When Vinayakan first met me, he said, 'These so-called senior actors always kept me at a distance. But your father… he was the only one who stood by me.' That's the kind of person my father is. And now, the same person is saying all this.' Chandu called out Vinayakan's contradictory behaviour, noting that his current stance disregards the compassion once shown to him. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trading CFD dengan Teknologi dan Kecepatan Lebih Baik IC Markets Mendaftar Undo He added that people battling addiction and striving to recover deserve to speak about their experiences and spread awareness. 'Only those who've lived through it know its true impact,' he wrote. 'If someone made a remark about your mother or sister…' Chandu also took issue with the implications of Vinayakan's messaging at public events. 'You can't go to community programs and say, 'Everyone go drink and ruin your liver like I did,'' he said. He emphasized that people are trying to rebuild their lives and that condemning their efforts sends a dangerous message. Chandu questioned whether speaking against drug use is now considered a crime and closed his rebuttal with a pointed analogy: 'If someone made a remark about your mother or sister at home, would you say it's just the language? You wouldn't. Then why make light of this?' On the work front, Vinayakan will be next seen in Mammootty's 'Kalamkaval'.
