It’s amazing how our Taehyung has been making huge waves in the military since Day 1 and up to now, for over a year since then. He has elevated interest in the military because he did not only enlist but got the grit and resilience to join the SDT, which has been known to have the hardest training. Our Taehyung is doing his best and we’re all so proud of him 👏🙌🫡 It’s exciting what our V will do and the stories he’ll tell once he’s with his service. I’m looking forward to them. But even while you’re serving, you have given us a number of projects so it doesn’t feel like you were gone for a year. We’re always reminded of you, your hard work, and your potential. Thank you so much for leaving us with a lot of gifts, Taehyung-ah. 

I have outlined these achievements of yours back in October. I apologize that I haven’t been able to send you the letter updates. Still, congratulations to our Taehyung on such an impactful military service 🥳🎉👏🙌
