EXO's Kai to quietly enlist in mandatory military service today

Posted by jieun-im48 pts Wednesday, May 10, 2023

EXO's Kai will be enlisting in South Korea's mandatory military service today.

On May 11 KST, EXO's Kai will be entering the training center to receive basic military training. Then, he will officially enlist as an active soldier in the public service department. The news of Kai's upcoming enlistment was suddenly announced, catching many, and even Kai himself, off-guard. Kai expressed his feelings regarding the sudden announcement by holding an Instagram live session, where he stated, "I just heard the news today too. I was preparing for a lot of things, but it's unfortunate. I'm upset that I can't show you [what I've been preparing for], but I can just show you when I return [from the military]."

Meanwhile, Kai is the sixth member of EXO to enlist in South Korea's mandatory military service.

You’ll be in a lot of people’s thoughts, prayers and hearts while you’re over there.

Always stay safe and healthy. We'll see you soon.

I'm against mandatory military enlistment in any country. It should always be voluntary. BUT Shhhhh.... He should have been more quiet. 15 articles and 9000 comments on social media defending his broken body and attitude is hardly considered quiet.
