Actor Baek Ju-ho is enlisting as an active-duty soldier.
According to his agency, Haewadal Entertainment, Baek Ju-ho will enter the Nonsan New Recruit Training Center on the 11th. After completing basic military training, he will serve as an active-duty soldier in the Army.
Through his agency, Baek Ju-ho shared, “I’m enlisting a bit late because I’ve been busy with various activities, but I will fulfill my national defense duty with even more sincerity. I plan to be active as both a singer and an actor after my discharge.”
He added, “I will consistently show a steady side of myself so that I can always bring joy to the fans who are waiting for me. I will return as a more mature person without ever disappointing you.”
In 2025, Baek Ju-ho played the role of Son Jin-woo, the son of the founder of game company SB Games, in the short-form drama ‘Sonny’s Competition’. He earned the nickname ‘Crown Prince of Short-form Dramas’ for playing a dual role, including a plot where his soul was swapped with a high school classmate of the same name, Son Jin-woo (played by Cha Sun-woo).
He also garnered explosive support from fans by playing the lead role of Lee Jung-woo in ‘I Can Hear Your Heartbeat’. Additionally, as singer Ju-ho, he successfully completed solo concerts both domestically and internationally.
