N of boy band VIXX will join South Korea’s armed forces on March 4 as part of the Army band.
The VIXX vocalist and leader announced via the group’s official fan website on Saturday that he wanted to enlist without “making a big deal,” but decided he would “deliver the news (himself), as word spreads quickly.”
The VIXX vocalist and leader announced via the group’s official fan website on Saturday that he wanted to enlist without “making a big deal,” but decided he would “deliver the news (himself), as word spreads quickly.”
He will serve as an active-duty soldier as part of his mandatory military service. All able-bodied Korean men are required to serve in the military for around two years.
While he feels sorry about having to be away from the K-pop scene, he said he will be “carrying out (his) duty as a citizen of the Republic of Korea.”
“Your support means a lot to me. Thank you always,” he wrote at the end of the note.
N debuted with the six-piece act VIXX in 2012 with the single “Super Hero” under Jellyfish Entertainment. Prior to his enlistment, the 28-year-old will hold fan meetings from Feb. 16-17 at Sejong University’s Daeyang Hall in eastern Seoul.
