After completing basic training, he will join the military band unit.

It is estimated that Jaehyun will complete his military service by May 3, 2026. Jaehyun, born in 1997, has been pursuing his music career since debuting in 2016 as part of NCT.

Before military registration, Jaehyun will make his big screen debut in a film titled 6 Hours Later You Will Die. In this film, Jaehyun plays the character Junwoo. The film is scheduled to be released on October 16, giving fans a chance to see his acting before he officially undergoes military service.

2. Second Member to Serve in the Military

Jaehyun becomes the second member of NCT to serve in the military. Previously, Taeyong, his group mate, registered back in April and is currently serving in the Navy as a member of the military band.

With Jaehyun entering the military, NCT fans will certainly miss his presence on stage. However, they fully support this new journey until he returns in 2026.

"Hello, we are from SM Entertainment.

Jaehyun from NCT has registered to join the Army's military band unit and today received a notice of acceptance from the Military Manpower Administration. Therefore, on November 4, he will begin his active duty service and fulfill his obligations as a soldier.

There will be no official farewell event to avoid crowds and ensure safety, as on the day of entry into the training unit, many other soldiers and their families will also be present together.

We ask for your continued support and love until Jaehyun returns after completing his military duties.

Thank you."
