Kim Soo Hyun Starts With His Military Services, Bids Goodbye To Fans On Social Media
Actor Kim Soo Hyun started with a new role in his life. The 29-year-old actor has begun with his mandatory military services from yesterday.
As per his agency, Kim wanted to enter the training camp in Gyeonggi Province quietly. Therefore, no events or press conference were planned before it.
The "My Love from the Star" actor arrived at the site in a black van. At the center around 40 international fans were waiting for the actor, but Kim headed inside without addressing them. But Kim left a message for all his fans on Instagram.
He wrote, "Hello, this is Kim Soo Hyun. I wanted to briefly greet everyone before I enlist. I want to express my gratitude to those who have always supported me. I will return in good health. I hope everyone stays healthy."
안녕하세요 김수현 입니다. 입대 전 짧게나마 인사드리고 갑니다. 늘 저를 응원해주신 분들께 감사하다는 말씀 전하고 싶습니다. 몸 건강히 잘 다녀오겠습니다. 모두들 건강하게 지내시길 바랍니다.

Earlier in 2012, Kim Soo Hyun was declared unfit for his active military duty because of his heart condition. At that time, the actor was just 20 years old.
After being disqualified for the active post, Kim started working towards improvement of his bad health in order to be posted to active duty. It was back in 2015 that the actor underwent health checkup once again and was found fit for the active duty.
The news of Kim Soo Hyun enlisting was first broke by his agency Keyeast Entertainment on 28th September 2017. After five weeks of training, Kim will be assigned to a unit where he will serve for 21 months and will be discharged from his duties on July 22, 2019.
