On August 12, PLEDIS Entertainment shared important updates on SEVENTEEN members Jeonghan and JUN’s activities for the remainder of 2024 through the group’s official Weverse account.
According to the statement, Jeonghan is scheduled to enlist in the second half of 2024 to fulfill his mandatory military service as required for all Korean citizens. As a result, he will not be able to participate in the promotional activities for SEVENTEEN’s upcoming 12th mini album or the SEVENTEEN [RIGHT HERE] World Tour, which is set to begin in October. However, Jeonghan has pre-filmed most of his content, so CARATs will still have the opportunity to connect with him through a fan signing event and Lollapalooza Berlin. PLEDIS Entertainment mentioned that further details regarding Jeonghan’s military service will be provided in a separate notice.
In addition, PLEDIS Entertainment revealed that JUN will be focusing on acting and other opportunities in China during the latter half of this year. Similar to Jeonghan, JUN has completed filming for as much content as possible in advance. However, due to a scheduling conflict with on-location filming, he will not be able to join Lollapalooza Berlin, music show performances for the 12th mini album, or the SEVENTEEN [RIGHT HERE] World Tour. Despite these challenges, JUN remains committed to SEVENTEEN’s group activities and will participate in as many events as possible to engage with CARATs.
Below is the full statement from PLEDIS Entertainment:
“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.”
We wish Jeonghan all the best and hope he remains well and healthy.
