The BTS ARMY gathers in Seoul for the K-pop phenomenon's annual FESTA, which this year has coincided with Jin - the band's oldest member - finishing his compulsory military service. The group has been on a self-desribed 'hiatus' since 2022, when all seven band members were conscripted, a requirement for all men under 30 in South Korea. Just days after being released from service, Jin is set to host a 'huggathon', during which he will hug 1,000 lucky fans.
