Seo In Guk already received a note for his military service. This confirmed that he will be leaving the entertainment business soon to serve in the army and the official date for his enlistment was revealed to be on March 28.

Star News reported that a source from Jellyfish Entertainment, In guk's agency, verified the news by saying that they have confirmed the date when their talent is set to begin his mandatory army service. The source added that the actor has been assigned to train at the Gyeonggi-do Yeoncheon-gun miltary training center.

After undergoing the five-week military basic training, the "No Breathing" actor will take his post as an active-duty soldier. However, where exactly he will be carrying out his duties for the next 11 months is still unknown.

In any case, when news about Seo In Guk's enlistment first came out, Allkpop reported that there is no truth in the stories. The publication stated that Jellyfish debunked the reports of the actor's March enlistment.

It was further said that In Guk has yet to receive any notice from the military bureau so the news is not true. However, a few hours after, the news site wrote that Seo In Guk is indeed heading to the army after all and this was confirmed by his agency.

"After confirming that Seo In Guk's enlistment date has been determined for March 28, we have decided to adhere to it. He will be serving as an army soldier by reporting for his 5-week training in the Yeoncheon county's 5th division in Gyeonggi-do," Jellyfish's rep was quoted as saying.

Seo In Guk made a name after joining the talent show Mnet's "Superstar K." From there, he started to gain followers and his popularity soared even more after eventually becoming an actor. He already starred in a number of TV dramas and movies like "Reply 1997" and "High School King of Savvy."
