Jungkook, known for his burgeoning solo career and a string of chart-topping hits in 2023, took to Weverse to address fans directly. His heartfelt letter, filled with gratitude and heartfelt sentiments, struck a chord among fans worldwide.

“To ARMY whom I love,

The wind is very cold as it is approaching the end of November already. Everyone knows it already, so I’m just going to try to write a short letter to you guys.

I’ll be starting a new journey in the coming December. I’ll be leaving everyone’s sides temporarily to fulfil my military duty. A part of me feels heavy as I tell you this, but on the other hand, my heart grows warm as I recall the precious memories that I’ve shared with ARMY.

Every moment that I’ve spent with you guys was the brightest period in my life. ARMYs’ smiles, support, and love, have led me to hear. I’m so thankful that you have encouraged my dream and silently walked with me.

I’m a little cautious about telling you to wait for me endlessly during my service. A year and 6 months is a long time. That’s why I can’t speak those selfish words, but I promise you that when I get back, I’ll be where I always was, standing on stage again having grown.

During this time, I hope that ARMYs’ lives will always be filled with laughter and happiness, and I hope that your daily lives will be filled with health and beauty.

I’ll be missing you deep in my heart, as I wait for the day where I can meet you again to talk about new things. Don’t be sick, and stay healthy.

I love you.”

— Jungkook

In his touching letter to ARMYs, Jungkook expressed a mix of emotions as he prepared to embark on this new chapter of his life.

He reminisced about the precious moments shared with fans and promised to return stronger and more mature after his service concludes.

The emotional impact of Jungkook's message resonated deeply with fans, with many taking to various platforms to express their love, support, and heartache at his impending absence.
