Lee Jun-young recently announced that he is set to enlist in the military soon.

Sharing the news via a handwritten letter posted on his social media account on 15 June, the former U-KISS member expressed, “I have been agonising for months over where to start the story, and I have finally decided to write it myself. I am already on my tenth revision.”

“By now, you must have watched episode 6 of ‘Reborn Rookie’ and be getting ready to sleep, right? Thank you for watching today. I thought it would be better to tell you myself rather than conveying the news through an article, so I am writing this post. I never thought I would be delivering this news with my own mouth. I am enlisting on July 21st.”

He continued, “Before I found out my enlistment date, I thought, ‘Well, what’s the big deal? I’m just going!’ But now that I actually have the date, I find myself having a lot of thoughts for the first time in a while. I also thought a lot about how to share this news. But as I write this down word by word, I feel a little lighter.”

Lee stated that he will go and return in good health, adding, “Until the day I greet you again, I sincerely hope everyone stays healthy and spends happy and meaningful time in their lives. Thank you for always cherishing and supporting me.”

It is noted that Lee has one drama, “Four Drama” that has yet to be aired.
