BTS RM Faces Massive Backlash For Revealing Jungkook’s Private Information
RM talked about the time when BTS members were doing their military service. The service started with Jin in December 2022 and ended with Suga in June 2025. While some members were still serving, the others worked on solo projects. Fans waited for all seven members to come back together.
Jungkook opened so many lives but he never mentioned that #topic or talked about it , i’m sorry but i don’t think we have the right to talk about his emotions when its didn’t even come from him in the first place, idk but this is my opinion

In the livestream, the leader remembered a tough moment. He said it was around one year before the rest finished service when Jin got discharged. Everyone was feeling low at that time. The members gathered at Jimin’s house after Jin returned. RM played the saxophone there. Jungkook was having a very difficult period, and all of them were struggling as new soldiers. They cried a lot while sharing their feelings.
RM explained that the older members discussed taking more responsibility to keep the group strong. They had honest discussions and promised to make a good album after everyone finished military service. Their plan was to thank the fans who waited so long for them.
The story quickly sparked mixed reactions. Some fans felt angry with the leader. They believed he should not have discussed Jungkook’s personal struggles during military service.
