*Disclaimer - boys are real people and I'm just...
Kim Seokjin yesterday completed his five weeks of mandatory basic training and posted to Weverse, with permission from the military, to update ARMY. However, today, ARMY received an even bigger surprise from BigHit when an announcement was posted to Weverse, prompting ARMY to go onto Twitter to share the news.
BigHit Entertainment released a statement which reads:
Hello, this is BigHit Entertainment.
We thank ARMY for their continuous support of Seokjin as he continues his military career. He completed his five weeks of mandatory basic training with a ceremony where families are invited. We are here to confirm that Chu Grace was also included in the invitation.
After numerous speculations over the years about their possible relationship, as well as continuous harassment from media outlets regarding this, we have spoken to both artists and we hereby confirm that Grace and Seokjin in fact have been dating since January 2018. They have thought carefully over the decision to publicise their relationship and they didn't want to exclude this information from fans, however, they wished to keep the relationship secret until they both felt comfortable speaking about it.
"We love ARMY to the moon and back and are very thankful for the support we have received as solo artists, as members of Bangtan Sonyeondan and as individuals. Although this may come as a shock to fans, we ask that they continue to support us and the rest of the boys, who are delighted that this news has finally been announced."
With the news of the confirmation of their relationship, ARMY's on Twitter soon caused the website to crash and soon the #JinChu ship name began to trend alongside other hashtags as #congratulationsJinGrace and #bighitspowercouple.
There have been no reports from the other members of BTS, other than an Instagram story from Jungkook who posted the following lyrics from Seokjin's Moon which was deleted an hour later.
