According to one of Korean news outlet, News 1 on March 1st, Seventeen’s agency Pledis Entertainment said, “S.Coups has undergone reconstruction due to a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament in the left knee joint and is undergoing long-term rehabilitation treatment.” “By this reconstruction he has retested and got Level 5 grade in physical examination from military,” they added.
S.Coups exempting from the Military?
According to the Military Service Act, those who receive Level 5 grade after physical examination are classified as wartime labor. S.Coups is not conscripted during peacetime, but is called up only for wartime service and is put into military support. S.Coups was born in 1995 and was 29 years old this year, so he was eligible to join the military within this year.
S.Coups had an injury on his left knee during filming in August last year and had to stop promoting his new album. Because of that, he couldn’t join Seventeen’s 11th mini album “Seventeen Heaven” and tvN’s “Nana Tour with Seventeen.” He plans to resume his activities this month.
