BTOB's Yook Sungjae And Hyunsik, PENTAGON's Jinho Officially Discharged From The Military Today

Nov 14, 2021

BTOB members Yook Sungjae and Hyunsik and PENTAGON’s Jinho have officially been discharged from mandatory military service.

They enlisted on the same day, May 11, 2020, and the official date of their discharge is November 14, 2021. However, during the pandemic, soldiers are unofficially discharged early when they take their last vacation, as they do not return to their base afterward in order to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

Yook Sungjae previously updated fans on his status after his early discharge. On November 14, he shared a selfie on Instagram with the caption, “D-Day,” celebrating his official discharge date.

Hyunsik shared a handwritten letter on his personal Instagram that read:

Dear Melody,

Hello, this is Hyunsik. How have you been? Just like I promised before I left, I have returned well and in good health. I really missed you! I’ve been thinking and waiting for the day that Melody and BTOB would meet again, and now the moment I dreamed of has finally arrived. It took longer than I thought, but it’s a meeting that is more beautiful because we waited.

Thank you again and again for waiting. It is really difficult to express my feelings for Melody and all the things I want to say in a few words. For Melodies who waited for me for a long time, I will work hard to express my sincere feelings to them for a long time.

Let’s fly together while looking in the same direction and going at the same pace.
