Kim Heechul in the army

After thanking his fans and the press, Super Junior member Kim Heechul formally enlisted in the army on September 1, and it created quite a stir in the entertainment industry.

Fans from Korea, Japan and all over the world waited at the entrance before his arrival. He arrived wearing a hat, which he immediately took off to greet his fans. He began with a warm smile, “I wasn’t going to greet anyone before enlisting, but I think my haircut came out okay.”

 
He continued with a bow, “I’ll come back as an adult. Thank you so much for coming all the way out here." After making a cute pose for the cameras, he added, “Please edit the pictures nicely if you’re going to upload them!" And although he stayed for only a brief moment, he made sure to wave to his fans before leaving the scene. The fans shouted in unison, “Be well, we’ll wait for you until the end.” Some emotional fans couldn’t help but shed tears over his enlistment.

Heechul will be receiving four weeks of training at the Nonsan Training Camp before beginning his service as a member of the public service personnel for 23 months.

Recently, pictures of Heechul in his army uniform surfaced online, causing fans to sigh with relief over Heechul’s smooth adjustment. The first picture shows the idol holding up his right hand as he pledges his military oath, while the second picture shows him confidently holding onto a gun, completely focused on his senior’s orders.




Commenting on his enlistment, Heechul expressed, “It’s still a bit unfamiliar, but I had already heard a lot of training stories from member Kang In, so I think I can do well.”
