Actor Seo Kang Joon greeted fans with short hair ahead of his enlistment.

On November 18th, Seo Kang Joon communicated with fans through a live broadcast through his agency Man of Creation's official Instagram account.

Seo Kang Joon, who appeared with short hair that day, greeted coolly, "I'm going" and said, "All healthy men in Korea will go to the army soon to fulfill their national defense duty."

Seo Kang Joon, who was unfamiliar with the live broadcast after a long time, asked, "Everyone, I cut my hair. I've been wanting to cut my hair for a long time, but I had an opportunity to do that, so I cut it. I'm satisfied. How about you?"

When the fans complained about not going to the military, Seo Kang Joon exclaimed, "No, I'm in big trouble."

He said, "It was my first time enlisting, so I was afraid and very nervous, but now I feel comfortable. I don't know if you would believe it, but there is also excitement. I am spending every day with my own determination.”

Seo Kang Joon, who says he meets a lot of people, such as traveling with his loved ones and acquaintances, said, "I eat a lot of delicious things. No matter how much I eat, there are things I want to eat. I think I want coffee the most. Iced Americano. They said they only have coffee,” he shared.

He said that he moved up his bedtime to become a morning person in order to adapt well to military life. "I am an animal of adaptation, and I am also a person who adapts quickly.”

Seo Kang Joon, who said that the people around him would do well in the military, made the fans smile by emphasizing, "I'm not at all pitiful."

Seo Kang Joon said, "I don't plan on making a big bow to my parents. I also want to say, 'I don't want you to cry.' It's been a few months since I've been in touch with my older sister. They're like siblings, so I don't contact them often."

Referring to the Disney Plus original 'Grid', which has been filmed recently, he said, "It is said to be released in the early or first half of next year. In the future, 'Grid' will be introduced through Disney Plus. The movie 'Happy New Year' is also scheduled to be released. Please look forward to it a lot."

Seo Kang Joon also delivered words of encouragement to the students who took the 2022 college scholastic ability test on the same day.

He said, "It's been 10 years since I took the CSAT. After the CSAT, I had a lot of thoughts. I remember crossing the river of no return, preparing well and regretting not being able to say that I took the exam without regret. " He recalled, "Isn't it because I finished all of my , middle and high school education? So it was empty and I was thinking a lot about what to do in the future."

Seo Kang Joon continued, "There are people who are refreshed, there are people who regret it, and there are people who are fresh. Don't take it. It's already over, so I hope you enjoy your 20s."

Finally, he said, "I hope you are in good health above all else. I will spend the last days of my 20s in a new place. I will be in my 30s when I come back from the military, and I'm looking forward to 'there will be more diverse faces.' I hope you all do what you want to do hard. I will go back in good spirits and health."

Meanwhile, Seo Kang Joon will enlist in the army on the 23rd.

Hwanhee's agency, BT Entertainment, is firing back after serious fairness allegations were raised regarding the popular show ‘King of Singers Season 2’. They’ve denied all accusations and promised strong legal action for defamation.

On February 5th, the agency issued a statement through their official fan cafe, saying, “We want to correct the false claims.”

They explained that Hwanhee was initially approached to join the show in August 2024 by the production team. However, after checking with the event planning company, Dion Communication, they confirmed Hwanhee had no connection to the show or any related performances.

Despite this, the agency pointed out that certain media outlets published unverified articles, wrongly suggesting that Hwanhee’s involvement could compromise the fairness of the program.

BT Entertainment was quick to defend their artist, stressing the damage done to both Hwanhee's reputation and the agency itself due to these false claims. They added, "This has caused great harm to Hwanhee, who joined the program after careful consideration."

The statement didn’t stop there. BT Entertainment made it clear that they won’t stand for any further defamation. They said, “We are taking legal action against these baseless reports” and emphasized their commitment to protecting Hwanhee from any further harm.

They also reassured their fans, stating, “We will take swift action against any future misinformation to avoid any further harm to Hwanhee and his supporters.”

This controversy started after a media outlet raised concerns on January 23rd about Hwanhee’s participation in the show. The report claimed that BT Entertainment’s CEO, who is also a director at Dion Communication, had invested 1.1 billion KRW in the ‘King of Singers Season 2’ concert, leading to suspicions of favoritism towards certain contestants.

In the meantime, ‘King of Singers Season 2’ continues its intense competition, with Hwanhee making it to the semifinals. Fans are watching closely as he currently holds 1st place in the first round of the semifinals, cementing his position as a strong contender to represent Korea in the Korea-Japan King of Kings battle.
