FNC Entertainment announced via SF9's official fan cafe on May 21 KST that Dawon is set to enlist for his mandatory service on July 1. In a bid to minimize congestion during his enlistment, no separate official event will be held.

Furthermore, the agency emphasized that due to the private nature of the venue and the presence of military service members, fans are strictly prohibited from visiting. They urged fans to refrain from attempting to visit Dawon during this time.

Expressing gratitude for the continuous support shown to SF9’s Dawon, the agency appealed for fans’ unwavering support until the day he safely completes his service and returns in good health.

Confirming the news, Dawon also posted on his personal SNS, simply saying "7/1 Army."
