Dann of K-pop boy group The KingDom will begin his mandatory military service next week.

His agency GF Entertainment said Thursday, “While preparing for the group’s next album, Dann received notification from the Military Manpower Administration and will enlist in the Army on Sept. 9, earlier than expected.”

His entry into the recruit training center will be held privately, with the agency stressing that both the location and time will not be disclosed.

With Dann’s enlistment, The KingDom will continue activities as a five-member group. “We ask fans to send warm support and encouragement to Dann as he faithfully completes his military duty and returns in good health,” the agency said.

The KingDom debuted in 2021 with the EP “History of KingDom: Part I. Arthur.”
