On June 2, 2025, fan-based X account km_charts reported that BTS' Jimin and Jungkook both crossed 900 million streams each on Spotify in 2025. They’re the only male Korean solo artists to hit this number this year.

BTS' Jimin and Jungkook were seen at Gimpo Airport during their final military time off last month
BTS members Jimin and Jungkook were last seen at Seoul’s Gimpo Airport on May 23 and 24 during their last vacation from mandatory army duty. The two appeared to travel on separate days, with reports suggesting both headed toward Japan.
Though Jimin’s endpoint hasn’t been officially named, the airport mainly handles short regional routes, including Tokyo, making a Japan-bound flight highly probable.
Gimpo serves mostly nearby destinations and isn’t equipped for long-haul trips, which rules out far-off locations like the U.S. The idols remain enlisted but are currently using their final military leave.
Defense regulations typically limit travel abroad unless pre-approved, narrowing down where they could fly. This visit closely reflects their November 23, 2023, trip, when both singers flew out to Japan a day after HYBE shared that BTS bandmates RM, Jimin, V, and Jungkook had begun their enlistment steps.
During that journey, the two were spotted with compact video gear, sparking talk of an upcoming project. That footage was later revealed to be part of the Disney+ travel reality show Are You Sure?!, which aired on August 8, 2024. The travel and filming happened right before they entered military training.
Together, BTS's Jimin alongside Jungkook are slated for release from South Korea's armed forces on June 11, 2025. They enlisted together in December 2023 and are serving in the 5th Infantry Division.
