On May 8, Cube Entertainment confirmed that Pentagon member Jinho (28) will be enlisting later this month on May 11. 

As the oldest member of Pentagon, Jinho will also mark the first member of his group to begin his mandatory military service. After completing his basic training starting on May 11, Jinho will be carrying out the remainder of his service as an active duty soldier.

May 11 also marks the enlistment date of Jinho's fellow Cube Entertainment labelmates, BTOB's Hyunsik and Sungjae. Pentagon will continue to promote as 7-members in light of Minho's absence, and the group will participate in the third round of Mnet's 'Road To Kingdom' as 7-members.

According to insiders, the Pentagon members bid farewell to Jinho back during their second round performance recording of 'Road To Kingdom', shedding tears together and touching the other contestants.

    Who's Minho? Is it supposed to be Yanan but they mistyped?


    With Road to Kingdom in progress, I thought he'd enlist at the end of the year... It's too late to announce that he'll be leaving ㅠㅠ and only NEXT WEEK at that...

    So when you use the words "active duty soldier" does this mean like he could be on front lines if a war were to break out? Cuz dam
