K-pop idol J-Hope joins South Korean army as 2nd BTS member

J-Hope has become the second BTS member to join the army. The 29-year-old K-pop singer will serve the South Korean military for a year and a half.

In December, Jin, 30 and the oldest member of BTS, became the band's first member to enter the army after revoking his request to delay his conscription.

South Korean TV footage Tuesday afternoon showed what they called a black minivan likely carrying J-Hope moving into the boot camp in Wonju, about 55 miles east of Seoul. Hybe Corp., the parent company of BTS’ management agency Big Hit Music, later confirmed the 29-year-old singer entered the camp.
