On April 1, BIGHIT MUSIC put out an official statement informing fans that BTS member J-Hope will be enlisting in the military soon for his mandatory service.
HYBE Makes Official Statement Regarding BTS J-Hope’s Military Enlistment
The rapper then posted a smiling selfie on Weverese, asking ARMYs not to worry too much about him.
Soon, fans flooded the post with supportive comments, wishing for his safety and promising to wait for him until he returns. But the emotionally charged comment section soon turned into a sitcom scene when the group’s eldest, Jin, decided to tease his younger member.
Jin is always a pro at diffusing tensions and making his members or ARMYs laugh when the situation isn’t ideal. When J-Hope had first announced that he would be enlisting in the military soon, Jin came running to Weverse to joke with him and play the senior card. Needless to say, the hilarious exchange between the two was a huge stress booster for fans.

This time too, the BTS madhyung came to the rescue with his dry humor. Jin commented under J-Hope’s selfie, faking astonishment that he could smile even at this moment. In response, Jimin cracked up so hard that he begged his hyung to stop joking around. Jin then hit him back with a cold reality check that soon Jimin won’t be able to smile as well.

The reminder probably did a number on Jimin, who replied with a crying emoji, unless he used it in the stan Twitter sense. A minute later, Jin replied, saying he isn’t laughing much himself either.

J-Hope finally joined the banter and joked that he has achieved the state of nirvana.
ARMYs couldn’t help but LOL at this sibling-like dynamics among the trio and are happy to laugh along with their chaotic shenanigans.
