PLEDIS Entertainment shared the following statement :
Hello.
This is PLEDIS Entertainment.
SEVENTEEN members Hoshi and Woozi will be starting their mandatory military service starting this September. Woozi is set to enlist for active duty on September 15, with Hoshi to follow on September 16. They are scheduled to participate in the “HOSHI X WOOZI FAN CONCERT [WARNING]” and the SEVENTEEN 5th Studio Album Yizhiyu video call fan signing as their last official activities before enlistment. Following the start of their military service, they will not be able to participate in SEVENTEEN’s group activities. However, they will continue to stay connected with CARAT through a variety of pre-recorded content.
As numerous enlistees and their families will be present at the enlistment ceremony, we respectfully request that you refrain from visiting the site in person. Please send your heartfelt messages of farewell and encouragement for Hoshi and Woozi through Weverse.
We ask for your continued love and support for the artists and best wishes for their safe and healthy return. We will also strive to provide our artists with all the necessary support during this time.
Thank you.
Ahead of their enlistment, Hoshi and Woozi will hold their final scheduled events, including the ‘HOSHI X WOOZI FAN CONCERT [WARNING]’ in Korea and a video call fan sign for SEVENTEEN’s 5th studio album ‘Yizhiyu’. These events will give fans a chance to connect with the duo one last time before their temporary hiatus.
Hoshi and Woozi are the next SEVENTEEN members to enlist following Jeonghan, who joined the military on September 26, 2024, and Wonwoo, who began his service in April 2025.
PLEDIS has requested fans not to visit the enlistment sites out of respect for other enlistees and their families, encouraging messages of support to be sent through Weverse instead.
We wish both Hoshi and Woozi a safe and healthy service.
