Earlier this month, Sehoon shared the news of his enlistment through a handwritten letter on the fan community app. In the letter, he apologized for the delayed announcement to EXO-L, expressed wishes for their well-being during his absence, and promised to return in good health. Sehoon is scheduled to be discharged in September 2025.

In other news, the band's winter song, "First Snow," secured the top position on Melon's top 100, the prominent music chart in Korea. Originally released a decade ago as a B-side track from the winter special album "Miracles in December," the enduring popularity of "First Snow" continues to resonate with listeners.
