The South Korean government requires all men to serve in the military for about 18-21 months, depending on the branch and type of service. It's a big deal, and Super Junior members have been doing it one by one, like a never-ending cycle of military enlistment. First, it was Eunhyuk, then Donghae, and before you knew it, half the group was gone!
But don't worry, fans - they didn't leave without a fight (or at least, a bunch of emotional goodbyes). Leeteuk, the leader of Super Junior, was one of the first to enlist, and let me tell you, it was a real tear-jerker. He was so dedicated to his country that he even got injured during training - talk about commitment!
And then there's Shindong, the lovable shy guy of the group, who enlisted in 2015 and served for 18 months. Can you imagine him in the military, with his cute, awkward self trying to follow orders? It's like, yes, please, we need more of that!
