Shownu, a member of one of South Korea's most famous boy bands, has shared some photos of his enlistment day, adding that fans should take care of themselves and that he loves them. 
The K-Pop band member will begin his 4-week basic military training and will be carrying out his duties as a public service worker.
In a subsequent tweet, other members of the group showed their love and support for the band's eldest member, promising that the day will come when they meet again and that he will return as a more mature person.
Earlier the same day, Monbebe (the official name for Monsta X's fandom) threw a hashtag party, trending #SeeYouAgainShownu worldwide.
Right before Shownu's enlistment, Monsta X treated the fandom to a MV teaser for the group's special single "Kiss or Death" for their album "Universe Music". The latter is set to drop on the 26th of July.
