The group is also subject to mandatory military duty in South Korea, which is slated to last until 2025. Jin will be the first in line for service because he is the eldest member of the group.
In October, the singer collaborated with Coldplay on his new solo track The Astronaut while J-Hope released his first official solo album Jack in the Box and headlined Lollapalooza in July. Jung Kook performed in the World Cup Opening Ceremony in Qatar, and RM is preparing to release his debut solo album, Indigo on December 2.
