Exemption BTS from the Military Service

The Issue

BTS is a Worldwide Known South Korean pop music group. We the international fans want our voices heard. According to SK military law Exemptions can also be granted to those with exceptional skills. For example, some violinists, pianists, and ballet performers can get exemptions from duty. Also, athletes who have won medals in the Olympics, specifically a gold medal in the Asian Games, are exempted from active duty. Does the South Korean government believe that BTS doesn't deserve that chance? Their names are synonyms for South Korea all over the world. How many proofs and awards do they need? Please sign this petition, let's see that we are here, and we care. We want BTS exemption by their deeds, it's not the privilege. P.S. If exempted they shouldn't be held hostage to do government work. If the government chooses to enlist them they shouldn't be expected to do any other duties.
