Pledis Entertainment has confirmed that Seventeen's Jeonghan will enlist in the mandatory military service in the second half of 2024.

The label confirmed, "Jeonghan is due to fulfill his military obligation in the second half of 2024. While Jeonghan filmed most of the content he could in advance, he will not be able to participate in promotional activities for the 12th mini album and the SEVENTEEN [RIGHT HERE] WORLD TOUR, scheduled to start in October."

Additionally, Pledis revealed that Jun will be stepping away from Seventeen's promotion activities for the time being to focus on his acting career in China.

Pledis Entertainment revealed, "After thorough discussions with JUN and the other members of SEVENTEEN, we have decided that Jun will pursue acting and other opportunities in China during the latter half of this year. Like Jeonghan, Jun has completed filming for content that could be prepared in advance. However, due to an overlap with the on-location filming schedule, JUN will not be able to participate in Lollapalooza Berlin, music show performances for the 12th mini album, and the SEVENTEEN [RIGHT HERE] WORLD TOUR."

Below is Pledis Entertainment's full statement:

"Hello.

This is PLEDIS Entertainment.

We would like to provide information regarding SEVENTEEN JEONGHAN and JUN’s activities in the second half of 2024.

JEONGHAN is due to fulfill his military obligation in the second half of 2024. While JEONGHAN filmed most of the content he could in advance, he will not be able to participate in promotional activities for the 12th mini album and the SEVENTEEN [RIGHT HERE] WORLD TOUR, scheduled to start in October. JEONGHAN will still be able to meet with CARATs through the previously announced fan signing event and Lollapalooza Berlin. Further details regarding JEONGHAN’s military service will be provided later in a separate notice.

After thorough discussions with JUN and the other members of SEVENTEEN, we have decided that JUN will pursue acting and other opportunities in China during the latter half of this year. Like JEONGHAN, JUN has completed filming for content that could be prepared in advance. However, due to an overlap with the on-location filming schedule, JUN will not be able to participate in Lollapalooza Berlin, music show performances for the 12th mini album, and the SEVENTEEN [RIGHT HERE] WORLD TOUR. JUN is determined to participate in SEVENTEEN’s group activities, and though he is unable to take part in the world tour, JUN will participate as much as he can in schedules that engage with CARATs.

We ask for your kind understanding and support for JEONGHAN’s healthy completion of his military service and JUN’s upcoming projects. Please continue to show your love for SEVENTEEN and stay tuned for SEVENTEEN’s upcoming activities this year.

Thank you."
