BTS’ RM has fans worried in resurfaced controversy about poor military living conditions

A resurfaced photo of BTS’ RM bedless military base in Hwacheon hit social media again! Despite being just two months away from completing his mandatory service, fans remembered the group’s leader resting on a bare wooden platform instead of a traditional bunk. This glimpse into his daily life sparked debates among ARMY about living conditions for enlisted idols.

Many fans recalled RM’s Weverse messages describing his desire to be done with his military service, thinking his remarks could be related to his bedless Hwacheon place. In contrast, some believe renovations might have taken place before RM’s arrival, leaving him in tougher circumstances. Fans remain divided on whether conditions really improved or if RM got the short end of the stick.

Meanwhile, BTS is set to fully reunite in June 2025, once each member completes his service, but fans fear RM’s recent experience signals bigger concerns about the well-being of K-pop stars in the military. Many are urging the government to rethink soldier facilities. For now, ARMY is absolutely ready to welcome their beloved leader back home the moment he’s officially discharged.
