The discharge date for BTS’s J-Hope has been announced.
According to the latest announcement, J-Hope's official discharge date is October 17. Big Hit Music announced on October 14 that "J-Hope is nearing the end of his active-duty service and will soon be discharged."
The label continued, "As the discharge date coincides with the return of many soldiers, there will be no special event on this day. To prevent safety accidents due to crowding, we kindly ask fans to refrain from visiting the site."
