According to reports it’s now being claimed that the South Korean Parliament is now debating a new amendment that would allow K-pop stars (across South Korea) to do just three weeks of military training. Yes, you read that absolutely right. This comes after BTS members (RM, Jin, Suga, Jimin, Jungkook, V and J-Hope recently announced a hiatus and gave exhaustion as the reason for it.
However, during his conversation with Reuters lawmaker Sang-Hyun claimed that BTS’ main reason for the hiatus was ‘waiting for parliament to decide has been hugely stressful’ for them.
