SEVENTEEN's Jeonghan will finally fulfill his military service obligation starting September 26, 2024. Jeonghan will be the first member of the group to enlist in the military, and will be serving as a social service worker instead. So why will he be serving as a social service worker? We will summarize the reasons and detailed information about Jeonghan's enlistment here!

What is a social service worker?

When Jeonghan completes his military service, he will serve as a community service officer. Unlike regular military service, community service officers are an alternative service chosen for those who have physical limitations that make military service difficult. This allows him to fulfill his military service obligations through work at a public institution.

There has been no official word on exactly why Jeonghan is serving, but health reasons or other considerations may be involved.

Heartwarming interactions with fans

Before enlisting, Jeonghan left a message for his fans on Weverse and Instagram.

Jeonghan said goodbye in a light-hearted manner that is so typical of him, saying things like, "See you later" and "I'm off to honey!" During the farewell, he told his fans, "Don't worry!" and many fans were touched by his kindness.

Social media is flooded with messages such as "I'm sad, but I support you" and "I'll always be waiting for you," as many fans eagerly await Jeonghan's return.

Military service and future plans

Due to Jeonghan's military service, SEVENTEEN will be entering a "military white period" for a while.

Although the group will be taking a break from activities as a full group for a while, they will continue to connect with fans through pre-prepared content.

Additionally, according to an official statement from Pledis Entertainment, Jeonghan will not be holding any special events on the day he begins his military service, and has asked fans to leave messages for him through Weverse.
