SF9’s Inseong has announced his plans to enlist in the military.

On February 5, FNC Entertainment revealed that Inseong’s enlistment date has been set for March 21 and that he will be fulfilling his mandatory service as a member of the military band.

The agency also stated that they will make a separate announcement about Youngbin’s military enlistment once the date is confirmed.

FNC Entertainment’s full statement is as follows:

Hello, this is FNC Entertainment.

We are making an announcement regarding SF9’s Inseong’s military enlistment.

On March 21, after receiving basic military training at a training center, Inseong will be fulfilling his military duty as a member of the military band. In order to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and minimize chaos, there will be no public event on the day of his enlistment.

In consideration of the fact that it will be an occasion shared with many other soldiers, fans are prohibited from attending, and we hope that you will refrain from doing so.

We are always grateful for the love that you send SF9’s Inseong, and we ask that the fans cheer him on until the day he successfully wraps up his military service and returns in good health.

As for Youngbin, as soon as his enlistment date is finalized, we will inform you through an announcement.

Thank you.

Couldn't imagine him anyway else but the military band tbh. What are some of your favorite second-hand embarrassment Inseong moments?

(note that this is purely based on my impression of inseong on the basis of interviews/variety and stuff and i obviously do not know him in person!)

oh i mean that i don't think he would thrive well in a hypermasculine/toxic masculine environment like i imagine regular army divisions would be. in contrast to the majority of sf9, he hates working out and most people describe him as innocent/moodmaker/lighthearted, he usually embarrasses himself in order to pick up the mood for others and i can imagine that not always being well received/abused in environments with a lot of hierarchy/structure/competition
