Seo Kang Joon is a popular Korean actor and singer who was a former member of the actor group 5urprise, the first actor group consisting of Yoo Il, Seo Kang Joon, Gong Myung, Kang Tae Oh and Lee Tae-hwan. 

Seo Kang Joon gained popularity due to his role in the series "Cheese in the Trap" in 2016 and has since followed up with brilliant performances in "Entourage" in 2016 as well, "Are You Human Too?" in 2018, "The Third Charm" in 2018, "Watcher" in 2019, and "When The Weather Is Fine" previously in 2020.

On the 8th of November, an industry insider revealed that Seo Kang Joon is enlisting as an active-duty soldier on November 23. This comes to no one's surprise as the actor is 28 years old and is nearing the end of the window for his mandatory enlistment.

Not long after the reports surfaced, Seo Kang Joon's agency, Man of Creation, dropped the following announcement:

"Hello. This is Man of Creation.
