They say that to salute, you should keep a straight line between your wrist and forearm at 45 degrees off the ground, and your arm should stay between 30 and 45 degrees

J-Hope himself went to Weverse Live to reassure ARMYs about his draft. He revealed he had been thinking about reaching out since Jin left, and the oldest BTS member called him when the announcement was made, so J-Hope got some advice from him hyung.
I think I’ve been thinking about this for the past year. After Jin-hyung walked in, I wondered when I should do the same. As I thought about it, I decided the sooner I got in, the sooner I could come back and show you something good.

🐿️ how was the phone call with Jin Hyung? He called me the moment the review came out, hehe, like “yhooooope…I got the news!”

Now one of J-Hope’s close friends has revealed how they dealt with the news of his draft: Becky G.
Because J-Hope and the Latina soloist collaborated on the tribute record Bianca Bonnie‘s “Chicken Noodle Soup” in 2019, they became good friends.
We were among the first to master Korean, Spanish and English. It’s really bad.

It was previously announced that Becky G will perform at Coachella 2023. Just as J-Hope included her in his performance, she wanted to do the same.
That could of course change now. When word broke that J-Hope was about to materialize, some tweeted: “check becky” know what good friends they are.
I’ve just seen so many tweets telling Becky to drop by 😭 I’m sure she knows Hobi is going into the army and sent him her best wishes 💖 @iambeckyg

Becky G responded to one of the tweets and expressed her gratitude to fans for their concern. She revealed that she and J-Hope had actually spoken to each other. Like us, she was sad, mostly because she was hoping he would join her Coachella 2023, but she still wishes him the best.
I really appreciate this SM. We talked. 🥺 I really wanted him to join me in Chella but for obvious reasons he can’t be there. I am very grateful to him and wish him the best of luck. 🫶🏽💫
