Sehun Wraps Up Service Duties Today
On September 20, Sehun, the youngest member of K-pop powerhouse EXO, was officially discharged from his alternative military service. As a public service worker, Sehun completed his duty without fanfare—just like he preferred it.
He first announced his enlistment in late December 2023, with a heartfelt message to fans: “To my beloved EXO-Ls, I’m sorry for the sudden news. I’ve been reflecting a lot these days, and I hope you understand. I’ll return healthy and stronger than ever.”
EXO’s Military Chapter Comes to a Close
With Sehun’s discharge, all EXO members have officially fulfilled their mandatory military service—a rite of passage in South Korea for men aged 18 to 28. From Kai to Suho, each member served in different capacities, temporarily pausing group activities but consistently reminding fans they’d be back.
And now, that moment might be just around the corner.
Fans Spot Comeback Clues for December 2025
Earlier this month, EXO’s official social media account posted a cryptic teaser reading: “WHEN WE BECOME TRUE ONE, A NEW WORLD AWAKENS.” It also dropped the phrase “DECEMBER 2025,” sparking serious comeback theories across fandom circles.
While SM Entertainment hasn’t confirmed anything official, the timeline aligns all too perfectly with the group being whole again and prepped for a full-on reunion. After years of solo projects, sub-units, and military gaps, EXO-Ls (the group’s fandom) are more than ready for OT9 to light up the stage.
What’s Next for EXO?
With military responsibilities officially off the checklist, there’s fresh anticipation for music, tours, and more fan interactions. Whether EXO returns this December—or uses 2025 as a symbolic milestone—their chapter post-service is about to begin.
Consider this the end of an era—and the start of a powerful new one.
