Singer Tei has announced that he will be enlisting in the army as an active-duty soldier on September 11th.

On August 22nd, Flexus Entertainment revealed, "Tei will be serving as an active duty soldier in Choonchun starting September 11th. He wanted to enlist quietly because he feels that it's something he definitely must do as a citizen of the country. He seems a bit surprised that many have found out about it suddenly."

Tei debuted in 2004 with 'The First Journey' and shot to fame as a top soloist and has left hits like "Love is One" and "Leaving Love". He came back in the game last year with a win on tvN's 'Opera Star' and MBC's 'I Am a Singer 2', along with a new project band called Handsome People and his musical, 'Sherlock Holmes'.
