Hwarang! Reporting!

Sergeant Jo Kwon of the military band has been officially discharged as of March 24, 2020. Reporting this!


I enlisted during the heatwave two years ago, and after 597 days (1 year, 7 months, and 18 days), the day of discharge that seemed never to come has finally arrived.


I sincerely thank everyone who waited for me.

It was never easy and full of many events.


However, I am truly grateful to the wonderful officers, military band members, and military musical dispatch soldiers who were a great support during my military service,

as well as my family, friends, and beloved fans.

Thanks to them, I was able to be discharged in good health.


There were many unforgettable moments throughout my life,

important times connecting the past, present, and future,

and after faithfully fulfilling my duties for the Republic of Korea and doing my best until the end,

I have many happy memories left behind.


Now I have become reservist Jo Kwon.

Returning as singer Jo Kwon, my main profession, please look forward to and support the various rainbow-colored aspects I want to show!


Thank you.

Hwarang!!!


(This can't be a dream... I opened my eyes, so it can't be the training camp again.

Due to COVID-19, I was granted pre-discharge leave and was discharged on the 24th.

Hongcheon, Gangwon Province is a clean area.

I pray that COVID-19 will end as soon as possible.)
