At the start of the month, it was revealed that Lee Do Hyun would be enlisting, with his company confirming that he would be starting his service on August 14. Yet, unlike many stars, it was explained that the actor would be enlisting in private with no events.

Lee Do Hyun will be enlisting on the 14th, getting his basic training at the new recruits center and then completing his military service as a part of the military band for the Korean Air Force. He will not be holding any events on the day of the enlistment. And since the enlistment ceremony is a time and space for all the other new recruits and their families, too, we ask fans to please refrain from visiting the base.

On August 30, new official photos of the actor during his military service were released.

In another photo, all the soldiers have a more casual photo as Lee Do Hyun and the rest of the squad are seen pointing to one of the soldiers.

Another photo of the actor showcased just how smart Lee Do Hyun looks in his uniform as he is completing his military service as a part of the military band for the Korean Air Force.

Considering that Lee Do Hyun enlisted in private and these are some of the first official photos of the actor in the military, it wasn’t surprising that netizens couldn’t get enough of the pictures.

In particular, in the quote retweets of some of these posts, international netizens hilariously couldn’t get over the fact that they had forgotten that Lee Do Hyun wasn’t his real name. In the photos, his name badge unsurprisingly had his real name, which is Lim Dong Hyun, and some netizens didn’t even realize that Lee Do Hyun wasn’t his real name.
