Has Jin left BTS?

A year ago, the band members had addressed reasons as to why the band is likely to break up soon. Moreover, the band members had admitted that if the band breaks up, Jin would be the first person to leave. It was so not because the band members do not get along well, but because of the rules in their country.

Being from South Korea, BTS opened up to a media portal about the military requirement for young men in South Korea. They said that in South Korean, it is natural for them to perform military service for male citizens between the ages of 18 and 28. Jin, however, is the oldest member of the band and is already over 26 years old.

According to a leading media portal, in South Korea, active duty in the army requires 21 months of service. The Marines also requires 21 months and for those who enlist in the Air Force, one is required to serve 24 months. Considering the age group of the BTS members, the boys in the band have already delayed their mandatory service which is required for all males in South Korea.

There has been no official statement made by any band member that Jin has left the band.
