All Korean members of the group ONF will join the military next month to fulfill their national defense obligations.
On November 3rd, WM Entertainment agency said:
“Korean members of ONF, HYOJIN, E-TION, J-US, WYATT and MK will join the military in December.“
Earlier on the night of November 2nd, ONF leaders HYOJIN and J-US posted handwritten letters on the official fan café announcing their enlistment. ONF will debut with MK on December 21, J-US and WYATT on December 27, HYOJIN and E-TION on December 28 will enter each training center. In order to prevent the spread of COVID-19, the location and time of enrollment is closed and will be carried out without separate procedures.
We know that this was carefully decided based on the opinions of members who wanted to minimize the gap in group activities. As an idol group, all Korean members who are obligated to perform national defense service, will start serving in the military at the same time.
ONF is considered a “popular boy group” dominating the music show for the first time in four years since its debut with the track “Beautiful beautiful” released in February. In addition, with his summer pop-up album “POPPING” released in August, he performed remarkably on both domestic and foreign charts, such as the Billboard and iTunes charts, and continued to increase his popularity sharply, beating his own best streaming record of albums and music videos.
ONF will hold its first solo concert “ONF 2021 LIVE CONTACT :: CODE # 1. [REVERSE]” for four days from December 9 to 12 and will meet fans with a face-to-face performance after two years.
