PENTAGON's Hongseok Discharged Early From Military Service Due To Health Reasons

PENTAGON’s Hongseok has been discharged early from the military.

Hongseok enlisted in the military in May, and his agency announced his early discharge on December 26.

The agency’s statement reads as follows:

Hello.

This is Cube Entertainment.

PENTAGON member Hongseok was classified for the Wartime Labor Service and was medically discharged from his military service.

Hongseok has been receiving continuous treatment and counseling during his military service due to symptoms of depression and panic disorder with agoraphobia that he has been suffering from since before. However, as his symptoms have worsened, the military has decided that it is not possible for him to simultaneously continue military life and treatment, so he has been medically discharged.

We apologize for causing concern due to the sudden news, and we will continue to do our best for Hongseok to focus on treatment.

Thank you.

Wishing all the best for Hongseok’s recovery!
