Lee Seung Gi was previously rumored to begin his mandatory military service in March, but now it's been reported, and confirmed that he will be entering the army even earlier on February 1.

He received his enlistment notice, and on January 21, Lee Seung Gi stated through his agency, "I deeply thank everyone for always giving me undeserved love, and I will return as a real man. I didn't know when I would receive my enlistment notice so I was preparing to become a soldier in my heart. Because I am sorry that I'm not able to individually greet you all, I have put those feelings into a song."

About the song, he said, "It's my story too, but I hope that it will be a song that all soldiers-to-be, officers and men of the armed forces, and their families and friends can sympathize with."

His song "I'm Going to the Army" is a song about confessing to the person he loves right before entering the army.
