What happens when one of your favorite stars suddenly steps away from the spotlight? This is exactly what SEVENTEEN fans are wondering after a surprising announcement about Jeonghan and Jun. Read on to find out more about this surprising news!
On August 12, 2024, PLEDIS Entertainment shared some unexpected news: Jeonghan and Jun will not be part of SEVENTEEN's activities in the second half of the year. But why? What does this mean for the group and their fans?
Jeonghan, a key member of SEVENTEEN, will start his mandatory military service later this year. This means he won’t be able to join the group for their new album promotions or their big world tour starting in October. Even though he won’t be performing, Jeonghan will still meet fans at Lollapalooza Berlin and a fan signing event. But is this enough to ease the sadness of his absence?
Jeonghan tried to comfort fans with a short live broadcast on Weverse, lasting only 11 minutes. In these 11 minutes, he offered glimpses of comfort and familiarity. "I had a lot of fun today," he said, adding, "I hope you all live well until the next time I see you." His parting words were filled with the warmth that fans have come to love, yet they couldn't mask the sense of impending change.
Here is the full live video!
He talked about seeing them again and hoped they would stay well. Fans were touched, with one noting, "Jeonghan did the live to comfort us. He said 10 minutes was enough for us to see his face and live 끝," reflecting on how his short but sweet appearance was intended to soothe the heartache of his departure. Another fan shared, "Jeonghan’s way of comfort is just so precious," admiring his efforts to stay connected despite the circumstances."
Jun is also stepping away to focus on acting in China. This means he will miss the group’s performance at Lollapalooza Berlin and other events for their new album. Fans are curious about why Jun chose this path and how his absence will affect the group.
Amid the emotional turbulence, fans found solace in the final performance they would see Jeonghan and Jun partake in together:
The last performance with all members before Jeonghan’s military service and Jun’s acting career was a special one. They performed "Shining Diamond," their first song, which made fans nostalgic.
As SEVENTEEN faces these changes, their future is uncertain. Fans are left with many questions and emotions : How will the group adapt to these changes? Will the group continue to do well without Jeonghan and Jun? What surprises does the future hold for Jeonghan and Jun? And most importantly, how will their absence shape the next chapters of SEVENTEEN's journey?
Stay tuned as this story unfolds, and let’s continue to show our unwavering support for both Jeonghan and Jun during this transformative time.
