Younghoon of THE BOYZ revealed during a June 14 live stream that he will soon enlist for mandatory military service lasting about a year and a half. Fans interpreted his comments about going away as a reference to enlistment.
Younghoon, a 97-liner, made the comments while discussing upcoming activities with fans. He stated he would be going away for a bit, a remark that quickly led fans to conclude he meant his enlistment.
Leader Sangyeon began his own military service in March 2025. THE BOYZ members have been pursuing individual activities after a legal dispute with agency One Hundred, during which most received injunctions suspending their contracts.
No official enlistment date has been announced. Fans expressed support in messages wishing him well during his service.
