Rowoon, who debuted as a member of SF9 and is currently active as an actor, enlisted today (27th). After completing basic military training, Rowoon will begin his military service as an active duty soldier. On this day, his staff released two photos on Instagram with a short comment saying, 'I will go safely!!' In the photos, Rowoon is smiling and making a peace sign at the camera while dressed casually. Prior to this, on the 25th, Rowoon posted several photos on his Instagram with the comment, 'I feel refreshed. I will go now,' having shaved his head in preparation for enlistment, he boasted a non-embarrassing visual even with a buzz cut. Rowoon was initially scheduled to fulfill his military duty starting July 21 this year, but after receiving a re-examination (grade 7) during the enlistment assessment, he underwent a re-examination in early August, and his enlistment date was postponed to October 27. He debuted as a member of SF9 in 2016 and is currently active in numerous works as an actor. He has appeared in dramas such as 'Accidentally Found Hal,' 'Senior, Don't Put on That Lipstick,' 'Lovestruck in the City,' and 'This Love is Uncontrollable.' He also appeared in the recently released Disney+ original historical drama series 'Turbulence,' which became his last work before enlistment. Additionally, Rowoon will challenge his first Japanese work in the film 'Last Man -FIRST LOVE-' featuring Masaharu Fukuyama and Yo Oizumi, set to be released on December 24, where he plays FBI agent Clyde Yun.
