BTS Stars Released From South Korean Military Service
Two members of the international K-pop sensation BTS were discharged from South Korea's military after fulfilling their mandatory service, setting the stage for a 2025 comeback after a several-year hiatus. RM and V were both released separately from their service on Tuesday in South Korea's Chuncheon City and were greeted by around 200 fans. "What we want most right now is to perform again," RM, still wearing his army uniform, told reporters and fans after his discharge. "We're working hard on the new album so we can return to the stage as soon as possible." The pair began their service in December 2023, while three other BTS members-Jin, J-Hope and Suga-were already months into their conscription. Jin, the oldest member of the K-pop supergroup, was discharged from the army in June 2024. J-Hope was discharged in October. Jimin and JungKook are scheduled to be discharged Wednesday. The seventh member, Suga, is fulfilling his duty as a social service agent, an alternative to military service. He is to be released later this month. The seven BTS members plan to reunite as a group sometime in 2025. In South Korea, all able-bodied men aged 18 to 28 are required by law to perform 18-21 months of military service under a conscription system meant to deter aggression from rival North Korea.

BTS members RM and V released from army, tease reunion: 'We will return'
BTS members RM and V released from army, tease reunion: 'We will return' Show Caption Hide Caption BTS' Jin completes his military service with hugs from bandmates BTS members hug Kim Seok-jin, known professionally as Jin, at the end of his mandatory military service. K-pop supergroup BTS members RM and V were discharged from the South Korean military on Tuesday, June 10, after mandatory service, as fans were counting down to the band's comeback with more members finishing their national duty later this month. Cheered by dozens of fans near the military base, the two members in their army uniforms saluted the crowd and said they will soon be returning to perform. "To all the ARMYs who have waited for us in the military, I want to say I am truly, truly grateful. Please wait just a little longer and we will return with a really cool performance," V said in front of fans and media. Known as ARMY, BTS has a global fan club with millions of loyal followers. Two other bandmates, Jin and J-Hope, were discharged from the military earlier and have been performing solo and appearing on variety shows. BTS members RM and V begin mandatory military duty in South Korea as band aims for 2025 reunion Jimin, Jung Kook and Suga are set to wrap their military service as late as June 21, media reports say. The globally recognised K-pop icon BTS has not released a group project since 2022 and its members are hoping for the reunion. "After pursuing our own little ventures, we are now coming back together, and I love that for us," J-Hope told a magazine in December. BTS' Jin celebrates with bandmates after completing military service Entertainment group HYBE, which manages BTS, is planning a huge event called BTS FESTA this week for fans to celebrate the band's 12th anniversary. It is not clear whether the members will show up, but Jin attended last year. Shares in HYBE rose 2.3% as of 0211 GMT, hitting their highest point in more than three years. Holding a flower bouquet for their discharge from the army, RM said he wanted to perform the most. "(Members) would feel the same, but stage performance, I want to perform the most. I'll work hard to make an album soon and come back to the stage," RM said, after playing the sax for the crowd. Groupies from around the world flew in to South Korea to celebrate the return of their "life-changing" stars. "It is just absolutely joyful. That is now four out, two again tomorrow and then Suga. Then we have OT7, we have seven kings back with us," said Philip Darbyshire, a 72-year-old Australian fan, referring to the band's seven members. "It is just wonderful."

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce hold hands leaving dinner date at Palm Beach restaurant
Florida is one hell of a drug. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were spotted holding hands while leaving a dinner date at Buccan restaurant in Palm Beach on Wednesday night. A video shared on X by a fan showed the couple making their way to a waiting SUV after enjoying their meal at the upscale cafe. The 'Lover' songstress donned a black minidress for the romantic outing with her beau. She styled her hair up into a bun and wore a red lip. The Kansas City Chiefs tight end coordinated with the pop star, sporting a black shirt with black-and-white checkered pants. At one point, Kelce waved at onlookers on the sidewalk, while Swift flashed a smile. Photos of the duo, both 35, inside the restaurant showed them in good spirits. They were seen chatting while looking over the menu, and Kelce was seen laughing enthusiastically. The A-list couple's dinner date comes after the 'Cruel Summer' singer announced last week that she purchased the masters for her first six studio albums. 'I've been bursting into tears of joy at random intervals ever since I found that this is really happening. I really get to say those words,' Swift gushed in a letter on her website. 'All of the music I've ever made … now belongs… to me.' Swift and Kelce, meanwhile, have slowly been making their way back into the spotlight after retreating following the Chiefs' loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in the 2025 Super Bowl. The pair resurfaced for a Mother's Day outing with Travis' mom, Donna Kelce, in Philadelphia last month. They also stepped out for a date night at Harry's in West Palm Beach, Fla., on May 23. At the time, Swift and Kelce were spotted cozied up in a booth while sipping on some drinks. They have been spending time in the Sunshine State as the tight end rents a $20 million mansion in Boca Raton. Kelce reportedly snagged the property in April as he gears up for the forthcoming NFL season.
