[Dispatch=Reporter Lee Ah-jin] Mingyu of SEVENTEEN is fulfilling his military service obligation.

Pledis Entertainment announced on the 8th, "Mingyu is enlisting today as an active-duty soldier in the Army." He is the sixth member of the team to enter military service.

There will be no separate official event. The agency said, "The training camp entrance ceremony is an occasion where many soldiers and their families gather together," and asked that people refrain from visiting the site.

The company added, "Mingyu plans to continue meeting fans through content prepared in advance before enlisting," and requested "unchanging love and support."

Mingyu also left a message for fans on SNS on the 7th. He unveiled his short-cut hair and said, "I will return in good health."

SEVENTEEN is currently sequentially fulfilling military service obligations. Jeonghan was discharged last June. Wonwoo, Hoshi, Woozi, and Vernon are currently serving.

Jun will work as a social service worker starting on the 10th. Seungkwan and Dino are scheduled to enlist as Army military musicians on the 26th of next month.
