On the 10th, the Military Manpower Administration announced that the enlistment of active duty Army soldiers originally scheduled for Armed Forces Day will be rescheduled to the 30th of this month. The affected individuals number 1,476 across five units, and the enlistment units and times remain unchanged.

Additionally, due to the closure of military service physical examination centers on October 1, the examination dates for those scheduled for physical tests on that day will be changed.

The mobilization training assembly dates for those originally scheduled on September 30 will also be adjusted to mid-October or later.
