I promise to come back safely without getting hurt, so please take care of yourselves, eat well, and stay healthy too”.He continued and asked fans to look at the moon whenever they miss him too much. “I’ll also look at the same moon, thinking of all of you, and I’ll work hard while I’m away”, he added.

For the past few years, Yugyeom, as well as fellow GOT7 members, had been heavily focused on their solo activities. As of right now, Yugyeom is the only member left to complete his mandatory enlistment. Mark Tuan, BamBam, and Jackson Wang are not Korean and hence, not obligated to serve in the military.
