Actor Choi Jin Hyuk confirmed to enlist as an active duty soldier next month

The actor had previously applied to enlist as a conscripted policeman last year, but he decided to give it up to enlist as an active duty soldier. He had previously guessed at his upcoming enlistment during an interview, and he was spot on as he had said, "I think I'll most likely be going in March. As the service is for a year and 9 months, I'll probably be discharged around December of next year."

Since he is of quite a late age to be enlisting, Choi Jin Hyuk had also previously relayed his worries about how he will adjust as the soldiers he'll be enlisting with could be up to 12 years younger than him.

His agency commented, "Choi Jin Hyuk will be enlisting next month on the 31st. Because he wants to go quietly, we are preparing for things to go that way," and did not mention the location he'd be enlisting at to prevent drawing a crowd. 

The actor will bid goodbye to his fans today through a fan meeting and this will be his last public event before he enlists.
