Hwanhee's agency H2 Media stated on the 18th, "Hwanhee's discharge date which was originally scheduled for October 27th has been changed to the 25th." A Military Manpower Administration rep explained the reason for his early discharge, stating, "In the case of one's discharge date landing on a Sunday, it is normal procedure to move up the date to the Friday before it."

His agency also spoke on behalf of Hwanhee who shared, "After completing my public service, I want to be discharged quietly."

Hwanhee enlisted back in 2011 and has been serving as a public service officer since then.
