Boy band BTOB’s leader Eun-kwang will enlist in the army as a draft on Tuesday.
Cube Entertainment, representing BTOB, said, “As the singer wants a quiet enlistment, the time and place of the enlistment will not be revealed.”
On Monday midnight, Eun-kwang posted a handwritten letter on his Instagram that starts with the sentence, “Hello Melody, my love! This is BTOB’s leader Eun-kwang.”
잘 다녀올게요! 모두 이거 하나는 꼭 약속해요. 우리 다시 만날 날까지 꼭 건강하고 행복하기! 약속!!! 내 사람들. 정말 진심을 다해 사랑하고 감사합니다.
