Hwang Minhyun will join the military on March 21st. His agency said on March 29 that he will fulfill his military duty from March 21st.

Ahead of his enlistment, Hwang Minhyun has been communicating with his fans in various ways. "I will be away for a while, but I don't think I will be afraid of any future as long as I am with Hwangdo (fandom name). I will be back cooler and more mature and I will definitely feel the preciousness of Hwangdo even more", he said. He also released his digital single "Lullaby" on the 13th.

In addition, TVING's "Study Group" will be released in the second half of the year after he joins the military. Based on the webcomic of the same name, "Study Group" is a story about Yoon Ga-min, a boy who wants to study well but only has skills in fighting, creating Study Group in the worst high school, Yusung High. Hwang Minhyun plays the main role of Yoon Ga-min.

Kim Min-kyu will then join the army as the first runner in April. "Kim Min-kyu will join the army on April 1st", the agency Companion Company said on its official fan cafe on the 20th. "There will be no separate official event on the day of his admission to the training center. We ask for your understanding that he will enter the military behind closed doors to prevent safety accidents caused by on-site congestion".

Kim Min-kyu was loved for his roles in dramas such as "Because This Is My First Life", "Backstreet Rookie", "Business Proposal", and "The Heavenly Idol". In addition, he recently appeared as a regular member of ENA and Channel S entertainment show "I Am Ground", proving his sense of entertainment.

According to the agency, Kim Min-kyu will complete his planned schedules by the end of March and prepare for the enlistment. Therefore, even after joining the military, expectations are high on how Kim Min-kyu will fulfill his military life.

Song Kang, who is the same age as Kim Min-kyu, announced his enlistment on April 2nd, the very next day. "Song Kang will join the Army on April 2nd", his agency Namu Actors said on its official fan cafe on February 29th. "We ask for warm love and support from many people so that he can faithfully fulfill his duty of national defense and come back more mature and healthy".

Starting with the drama "Sweet Home", "Navillera", "Nevertheless" and "Forecasting Love and Weather", Song Kang has been working hard for several years without a break. In particular, at the end of last year, "Sweet Home - Season 2" and "My Demon" were released at the same time, and they were loved by many viewers.

Song Kang joined as a storyteller for "I Land 2", which will premiere on April 18th. In "I Land", the storyteller is a connection with viewers and a symbol that leads the world view, and Song Kang will play a storyteller following actor Namkoong Min in season 1

"Sweet Home - Season 3" will also be released this summer. As a result, Song Kang will minimize his military absence to the fullest through "Sweet Home - Season 3".

Group BTS and actor Lee Do-hyun continue to be active in the military even after joining the army. Attention is focused on whether the three mainstream actors, who are working hard even before joining the army, can continue to make headlines while they're gone.
