Bangtan Sonyeondan (better known as BTS) is a well-known South Korean boy band. Type Labels is the name of the label that the group is signed to (former name Bighit Labels). Kim Namjoon, Kim Seokjin, Min Yoongi, Jung Hoseok, Park Jimin, Kim Taehyung, as well as Jeon Jungkook are indeed members of the boy group. Bighit Entertainment released the K-pop group in 2013.
BTS is famous all around the globe for breaking milestones such as being the first Korean boy band to receive Grammy nominations, participating at Grammys, being on Billboard’s top 10 for the longest length of time, and multiple Daesangs (Korean grand awards).
Contracts in K-pop are usually for seven years. The contract began in 2013 and ended in 2020. It was, however, extended until 2026-2027. The military enrollment of Kim Seokjin, on the other hand, has ARMYS (the BTS fans) concerned. In general, each male citizen must serve the country for 1.5 years under Korean law. That implies they must join the military when still young, preferably between the ages of 20 and 30. Nevertheless, some persons may be excused, including such Olympic athletes who’ve already aided the country.
As a result of their amazing accomplishments, the label is attempting to obtain an exemption for BTS members, that Korea is developing.
They contributed to 1.7 per cent of consumer goods exports, which is a significant amount given it was a single group’s contribution. In addition, BTS accounts for 3% of South Korea’s overall GDP. In light of this, there are extensive debates in parliament, with MPs divided on their positions. Despite the fact that Bighit has been attempting to obtain an exemption till now, Jin ( alias Kim Seokjin ) has only been delayed for another two years.
