Hello again, I'm the anon who felt stupid about the whole Jungkook being a cook situation. Thank you so much for answering so nicely and thoroughly, I was a bit scared that my question would sound sarcastic or judging when it was anything but. I already knew about the companion system that meant Jimin and Jungkook would be in the same place. I just had no idea what type of role they had taken. As for Jungkook, he already loved cooking, so if that is what he does during MS, I hope it make him content. I personally was just super happy to hear from him today. It's sad that others are using this bit of news to hate on any members :(. From the very little I have seen, the BTS members have all tried to make the best of a situation they couldn't avoid no matter what. So I'll continue patiently waiting for them and hoping they are all doing as well as possible. I hope you have a great rest of your day :).
Of course lovely!😊
To you and anyone else, please feel confident to send in asks 💪. I’m more than happy to engage when it’s genuine.
You added some warmth to the cold I’d been feeling today from the different reactions online. I really appreciate your approach to how you think of the members, that should be the main focus for fans, for them to be doing as well as possible whilst we keep in mind they are making the best of a situation they couldn’t avoid. Your words are ✨
I too am happy for him, he doesn’t have to prove himself to anybody. He is a singer and entertainer. That is his life’s work. This is a pause in his life where we are privileged to keep up with him where we can.
He’s shown us how much he loves to eat AND loves to cook. How lovely has it been that we’ve been able to see him in action cooking several times, sharing recipes with us and cooking for him and Jimin in the Monuments documentary!
Like you I hope him, and all the members stay mentally, physically and emotionally well until they finish. Let’s continue to send nothing but love and positivity their way!
💜

There's no law or rule ordering Wilhelm or Erik to do military service but it is definitely expected (Erik served, and Jan-Olof also told August he'd have to start as soon as possible). Traditionally, royal and also many aristocratic men in European monarchies have done military service for historical reasons. As the future monarch, Erik and now Wille is also expected to be a sort of symbolic leader in times of national crisis etc. and even the current crown princess did a sort of military service for this reason.

BPP, since you live in Korea, do you know what the general population think of S Coups being too injured for ms or even alt service but being well enough to perform on tour?
***
I don't live in Korea. My job and temperament won't allow it. But I do try to make frequent/annual visits to see family.
That said, based on what I'm seeing, most people don't care that S.Coups of Seventeen got a military exemption. The topic of military exemption generally isn't something that makes the news or that most people care about when it concerns idols... who aren't BTS.
In fact, it was fairly common for idols to get exemptions for all sorts of reasons, like not doing high school in Korea or having a documented surgery at some point for everything from tonsils to ankle fractures. Some idols could engineer an exemption if they paid the right people to manipulate doctors' reports or create false diagnoses. This is the method Ravi - VIXX member and Kai's bff - used to try to evade military service, and it's ironically because of all the focus that BTS's possible exemption put on the topic, that he was discovered to have engaged in fraud to evade service.
Another example is how Jung Joonyoung, a (formerly) popular k-pop soloist, was exempted on the basis that he completed his high school abroad and not in Korea. But most people didn't know he was exempted until he was implicated in the Burning Sun Scandal for filming his gang rape of women on two occasions, and as one of the most active idols in the main group chat... That's when people realized he'd been exempted from military service several years before.
The only reason the regular Korean cared about the question of military service for BTS is because: (1) it's BTS; (2) k-pop stans of rival groups in Korea inflamed the issue into a controversy; (3) political factions in Korea hijacked the issue as a means to meet their own political goals.
BTS choosing to go was their choice. but one I'm very happy they made. S.Coups being exempted for his injury is, in some ways, the norm and what to expect. It's certainly not something anybody should attack him for.
Any ARMY doing that is an idiot. In my opinion.

D-Day is here...
We knew it was coming, but how can we ever be ready?
Today's news was unexpected despite knowing it was coming. I'm travelling in Korea for the next 2 weeks and damn, i haven't even been here a full day and my ult bias makes this announcement ... what a start to my trip!
But I WILL find a positive frame to put this in, because that's how I roll. Yoongi gave us (and himself) the most incredible going-away gift... the D-Day tour. What a send off! How could anyone top that? I was incredibly lucky to see him in Singapore and at the Final in Seoul. And i am so grateful.
I'm going to cry a little more, and then i will be done with my dramatics... for today anyway
💜 Borahae, Yoongi! 💜
And just to remind myself of how absolutely FUCKING LEGENDARY he is...

In just a little while longer Jimin will have completed one quarter of his service.
The days without him are long but we will wait for him faithfully!
