Taeyong of NCT communicated with his fans ahead of his military enlistment. On the 14th, he revealed his shaved hairstyle on the fan communication platform 'Bubble'.

Taeyong posed with his short hair and sunglasses on. He exuded an extraordinary charisma. He created excitement with his warm visuals that could not be hidden.

Taeyong said, "The members shaved my hair. Jungwoo was the starter, but he cut it way too short. I've always wanted to try a skinhead. It's quite hip."

He then wittily said, "This is the shaped of my head that I saw for the first time since I was born. Why does it look like this?" and made everyone laugh.

Taeyong enters the training center today (15th). He will undergo basic military training for a certain period of time and fulfills his national defense duties as an active-duty member of the Navy.

He will not hold any official events. SM entertainment said, "We ask for your understanding that Taeyong's admission will be held privately to prevent safety accidents due to on-site congestion."

Taeyong also expressed his feelings to his fans in a handwritten letter last month. He expressed his gratitude, saying, "Every moment was a truly meaningful and happy time."

He then promised, "There are many things I want to achieve in the future, so I will work hard during my military service and learn many new things. I will become a better person and stand on stage again."

Meanwhile, Taeyong became the first NCT member to serve in the military. Taeyong's expected discharge date is December 14th, 2025.
