"As soon as the official date is given he will be entering his military service. He is currently preparing for his fan meeting," the source said.
When asked about his thoughts on his upcoming enlistment, Lee Min Ho admittedly said he will bad about leaving his fans for a while. "I think everyone feels the same way before enlisting," he said as noted by Soompi.
The 29-year-old actor continued, "I feel like I will be separated for a while and I feel sad. As I am waiting for my enlistment date, I do have ambition regarding work and would like to film another project."
Lee Min Ho's latest drama project, "Legend of the Blue Sea," ended with an impressive viewership. The 20-episode fantasy series, which ran for three months, also starred award-winning actress Jun Ji Hyun.
