Jang Geun Suk was relieved of his military duties on May 29th after finishing two years of service as a social service worker. 

He was seen wearing a black cap and a mask while waving for the reporters at the press conference, saying: "Thank you" repeatedly. His agency stated that he was discharged early in order to adhere to social distancing measures, stating that to hold such an event would be overstepping a boundary.
