K-pop idol group BTS members RM and V reflected on their lives while fulfilling their military service for 18 months.

- By JONATHAN HICAP

RM and V were discharged from the military on June 10 after enlisting on Dec. 11, 2023.

RM served in the Korean Army's 15th Infantry Division band in Hwacheon, Gangwon Province, while V served in the 2nd Army Corps Military Police Special Duty Team (SDT).

Following their discharge, RM and V took to the Weverse fan communication platform and held a live broadcast.

"I came back from vacation and went for two weeks without eating lunch and climbing stairs. Yesterday, I was talking to my juniors and I lay down around 2 a.m. and I started crying. That's why my face is so swollen," said RM, Korean media reported.

He added, "I felt all the joys and sorrows of a human being yesterday. I felt a little emotional thinking about my juniors. It wasn't just happy, I felt a variety of emotions."
