ASTRO’s JinJin has been exempted from military service due to health-related concerns.

On June 2, ASTRO’s agency Fantagio released an official statement via the group’s fan cafe, announcing that JinJin was granted an exemption following a thorough medical examination by the Military Manpower Administration, which determined that his autoimmune condition made him unfit for service.

The agency’s full statement is as follows:

Hello, this is Fantagio.

We would like to inform you about ASTRO member JinJin’s military service status.

JinJin has been deemed unfit for military duty following a detailed medical examination by the Military Manpower Administration due to health issues related to an autoimmune condition.

While his condition does not interfere with daily life, he requires regular hospital visits for examinations and ongoing management. Based on the medical opinion that it would be difficult for him to participate in military service under such circumstances, he has been granted an exemption from mandatory military duty.

Our company places the utmost priority on our artist’s health and will continue to support his activities with that in mind.

We sincerely thank all the fans for your constant love and support, and we kindly ask for your continued interest in JinJin’s future endeavors.

Thank you.
