Jeonghan Discharge Confirmed as SEVENTEEN Member Completes Public Service

SEVENTEEN member Jeonghan was discharged from his duties as a social service worker on June 25, 2026, completing the alternative service he began on September 26, 2024. The Jeonghan discharge also makes him the first SEVENTEEN member to complete mandatory military service, a point reported across multiple Korean entertainment outlets on the day of his release. ¹

The update marks a defined change in SEVENTEEN’s current military-service timeline. While Jeonghan has completed his obligation, other members remain in service, with Wonwoo serving as a social service worker and Hoshi and Woozi serving on active duty in the Army, according to reports published on June 25. ²

Jeonghan Discharged After Social Service Duty

Jeonghan’s service period lasted about one year and nine months, beginning on September 26, 2024 and ending with his release on June 25, 2026. Korean reports described the completion as a formal 소집해제, the term used for release from call-up or completion of public service duty, rather than a standard active-duty military discharge. ³

Star Today reported that Jeonghan completed his service as a social service worker and became the first SEVENTEEN member to fulfill his military obligation. ¹ StarNews, through Asia Artist Awards, also reported that he was the earliest member of the group to finish military service and noted that his alternative service had started on September 26, 2024. ⁴

The confirmation came one day before June 26, 2026, the current date for this article, meaning the discharge is no longer a scheduled event but a completed status. Reports published on June 25 framed the release as both a personal milestone for Jeonghan and a group-level marker for SEVENTEEN, whose members are now moving through military obligations at different stages.

Jeonghan’s release followed SEVENTEEN’s 10th fan meeting, “CARATLAND,” which StarNews reported was held on June 20 and 21 at Incheon Asiad Main Stadium. ⁴ The available source material does not state that Jeonghan participated in that event, so the fan meeting is relevant only as part of SEVENTEEN’s broader June schedule.

First SEVENTEEN Member To Complete Service

The most widely repeated point in the June 25 coverage was Jeonghan’s status as SEVENTEEN’s first member to complete mandatory service. Sports Today, Star Today, StarNews and SPOTV NEWS all reported that he became the group’s first “군필자,” a Korean term commonly used for someone who has completed military service. ¹ ³ ⁴ ²

That distinction is notable because SEVENTEEN’s military-service period is unfolding across several members rather than all at once. SPOTV NEWS reported that Wonwoo is currently serving as a social service worker, while Hoshi and Woozi are serving as active-duty Army soldiers. ² Star Today also listed the same current service statuses for Wonwoo, Hoshi and Woozi. ¹

The source material does not provide a full timetable for all remaining members, nor does it state a complete schedule for Jeonghan’s future group activities after release. For that reason, the confirmed facts are limited to his completion date, his service start date, his social service worker status, and his position as the first SEVENTEEN member to complete the obligation.

Business Insider reported on June 26 that Yoon Jeonghan had returned to idol activities after completing mandatory service that began in September 2024. The article also noted that he was the first SEVENTEEN member to complete military service while other members are enlisted or awaiting enlistment. ⁵

Post-Discharge Livestream And Public Return

A post-discharge media item appeared on SEVENTEEN’s official Weverse channel on June 25 under the Korean title “하니 돌아왔쫑,” published the same date as Jeonghan’s release from social service duty. ⁶ The Weverse listing provides an official rights-holder platform record of his post-discharge appearance, though official video embedding is not included in this article.

Business Insider reported that Jeonghan spoke during his first livestream after the hiatus about adjusting to a structured public-service routine and rebuilding his health during the break. In one cited comment, he said, “Life as a 9-to-6 office worker” allowed him to live more healthily and that he liked it. ⁵

The same report cited Jeonghan as saying, “I couldn’t get used to it,” while discussing the return to idol life after time away. ⁵ The available source material does not provide additional verified details on specific comeback stages, recordings, appearances or future promotions connected to the discharge.

SEVENTEEN Jeonghan public service completion concept

Jeonghan’s June 25, 2026 소집해제 closes the first completed military-service chapter within SEVENTEEN. With his alternative service now finished and other members still serving or awaiting their own obligations, the confirmed development is a clear personnel milestone for the group rather than a broader schedule announcement.
