The 28-year-old singer and dancer shared that he and Woozi, aka Lee Ji Hoon, would enlist in the military in the second half of 2025. Kwon Soon Young, aka Hoshi, also mentioned that the two would be able to celebrate SEVENTEEN’s 10th debut anniversary before going for their mandatory service. “Woozi and I have received our military enlistment schedules. We’re planning to enlist in the second half of the year, so we’ll be able to spend the 10th anniversary together and make some fun memories before we go," he began his speech, as quoted by Koreaboo.
Hoshi then praised SEVENTEEN’s leader, S.Coups, aka Choi Seung Cheol, for keeping all 13 of them together since they debuted. He said, “I’ve never said this before, but I’m really grateful to S.Coups for keeping all 13 of us together since we were young." Such praiseworthy words brought S.Coups to tears.
The K-pop idol ended his speech by addressing their fans and saying that they are going to take the challenge to last forever. “Maybe because it’s time to enlist, every performance feels even more precious. It’s not like we’re disappearing—we will continue to work hard even after we return. People say nothing lasts forever, but SEVENTEEN is going to take on that challenge. We’ll need your support to do it," Hoshi mentioned as he concluded his speech.
SEVENTEEN, who made their debut in May 2015 with the EP 17 Carat, will be celebrating their 10th debut anniversary on May 16, 2025. Formed under Pledis Entertainment, the 13-membered group is considered one of the biggest K-pop groups.
