Lim Seul-ong to join military on Nov. 28

Singer-turned-actor Lim Seul-ong will begin his mandatory military service on Nov. 28, his agency SidusHQ said Monday.

Lim will enter an army training center without fanfare, according to the agency. He does not plan to address fans or inform the media of the training center he will be entering. 

The 29-year-old made his debut as a member of 2AM with the hit single “This Song” in 2008. Lim left JYP Entertainment in 2015 when his contract expired, and signed with SidusHQ as an actor. He has acted in dramas such as the web drama “Love Cells Season 2” in 2015 and last year’s “Mrs. Cop 2.”

Lim has been active as a singer as well, releasing the single “That Moment” in January and “It’s You,” which features rapper Beenzino, in June.

Lim also made his musical debut with “Mata Hari,” which ran from June to August.
