Before leaving, Jinyoung caused quite a stir on social media by showing his buzz cut, a popular hairdo for those enlisting in the military. He later posted a touching letter on Instagram to his followers thanking them for their support and expressing his love for them.

"I promise to think of you all, stay healthy, experience many things, and come back as a better person," Jinyoung wrote.

Fans have been heartbroken by the news of Jinyoung's enlistment and have flooded social media with messages of comfort and best wishes.
