Jungkook, who has officially begun his military enlistment, has written a heartfelt letter to his followers all across the world.

The BTS group’s youngest member revealed his statement on Weverse, stating that his heart is also heavy at the moment.

“Dear ARMY,” the Seven singer wrote. “It’s already the end of November, the wind is quite very cold. You all might already be aware so I’m writing a short letter to you.”

Jungkook revealed that he will go on a new voyage in December. “I’m leaving you for a while to serve in the military.”

“As I deliver this news, on one hand, my heart feels heavy but on the other hand, my heart warms up the precious memories with our ARMYs coming to my mind,” he said in a statement.

“The time I spent until now together with you guys were the brightest moments of my life. The smiles, support, love of ARMYs have led me here,” he remarked, expressing his gratitude to his supporters.

Jungkook announced that he will be taking a year and six months off from music.

The singer went on to say, “I’m somewhat cautious about asking you guys to wait while we do the military service… but I promise that I’ll be back on stage with more developed form of myself.”

Jungkook also expressed his desire that “ARMYs’ lives are full of smiles and happiness.”

“I’ll miss you deeply while waiting for the day we meet again and share new stories,” he wrote at the end of his post.
