Baekho, who has been active as NU'EST, announced his enlistment date. Baekho will enlist on December 29 while still active. At 30 years old, he revealed his enlistment during a fan interaction today (the 8th). Baekho debuted as NU'EST in 2012 and gained popularity with hit songs like 'FACE', 'Not Over You', 'Yoboseyo', and 'Negoto'. He suspended group activities in 2017 to appear on Mnet's survival program 'PRODUCE 101' Season 2. After that, he balanced activities with NU'EST W and solo work, leaving Pledis Entertainment in March after 13 years and signing with PRISMFILTER. With his enlistment, all NU'EST members, except for foreign member Aron, will fulfill their military duties. Baekho's digital single 'RUSH MODE' is released today! A new starting point as an artist. Baekho's last event before enlistment, his first solo concert in Japan, will be held on October 29 at Asakusa Hanagekijou in Tokyo. [TEAM Baekho Official Comment] We sincerely thank all dOnO (fan name) who always love Baekho. Baekho will enter the army training center on December 29 to receive basic military training and will serve in the active army. There will be no separate official events on the day of enlistment. Also, since the training center entrance ceremony will have many soldiers and families present, please refrain from visiting the enlistment site. We hope dOnO will leave their hearts for Baekho through Weverse. Until the day Baekho fulfills his national defense duty and returns healthy, we ask for your warm encouragement and continued love. We will also continue to support Baekho. Thank you.
