South Korea’s National Assembly is reportedly divided over exempting the BTS from mandatory military service. Lawmakers on Thursday discussed a bill that would allow the boyband to substitute their mandatory military service for other public service but no solution is found yet. A new report from Yonhap News Agency, which quoted remarks from Boo Seung-chan, the spokesperson for Korea’s defense ministry, said that the military is considering “situational variables" over the so-called BTS Law.
The BTS Law bill, if passed, would allow the K-pop band members to continue their work as K-pop idols for 34 months under an alternative program, instead of 18 to 22 months of mandatory military service served by South Korean males.
