Namoo Actors, the agency which is representing Song Kang, has officially announced his mandatory military enlistment.
The statement read, "Hello, this is Namoo Actors. We express deep gratitude to the fans who always show love for actor Song Kang, and this is a notice regarding Song Kang’s enlistment. Song Kang will be enlisting as an active duty soldier of the [Republic of Korea] Army on Tuesday, April 2. There will be no official events held when he enters the recruit training centre, and he will be enlisting privately to prevent safety accidents due to congestion on site, so we ask for your understanding. We ask for the warm love and support of many people in order for Song Kang to return in good health with greater maturity after diligently completing his mandatory service. Thank you."
For the unversed, in South Korea, every healthy and capable man must serve in the military for around 18 to 22 months as a part of national defence measures, due to the country's geopolitical tensions, especially with nearby North Korea.
Song Kang is best known for his appearances in Korean dramas Love Alarm, Navillera, Nevertheless, Sweet Home series and his recent hit My Demon.
On the work front, Song Kang will next be seen in Sweet Home Season 3 which is slated to release during his military service.
