South Korean boy band BTS member J-hope, who was discharged from the military in October 2024, sat down for a conversation on Jung Jae-hyung's talk show YooJungJaeHyung which premiered on YouTube. During their candid rendezvous, the K-pop idol spoke about his life as a soldier, including the dilemma he faced while showering in front of other men upon his enlistment.

When Jung asked Hobi, “How did you bathe?” He answered, “We all did it together. As soon as I entered the training center, I immediately thought, ‘How am I supposed to shower here?’. I thought, ‘Just be bold about it’. ‘Oh, you’re all going to get a look at a celebrity’s body today’. So that’s why I ended up completely exposed. To avoid feeling embarrassed. I didn’t worry about it and decided I should be confident instead.”
