Actor Rowoon is currently serving in the military as an active-duty soldier, and his recent thirtieth birthday, celebrated during his service, garnered significant attention from fans after he shared an update on social media. Born in 1996, Rowoon enlisted on October 27, 2025, and is expected to be discharged in April 2027.
Despite his military service, Rowoon posted a short message '30' along with a birthday cake photo on his social media, reassuring fans of his well-being. Before enlisting, he completed filming for the Disney+ original series 'The Trunk,' where he plays Jang Si-yul, and this drama is scheduled to air in the latter half of this year while he is still serving. Rowoon debuted with SF9 and established himself as an actor through leading roles in dramas such as 'Extraordinary You' and 'The King's Affection.'
Fans have expressed their delight at Rowoon's brief update and conveyed their commitment to waiting until his discharge. There is anticipation for Rowoon to return as a more mature actor in his thirties, transitioning from a twenties youth star, and his pre-enlistment works are helping to fill the void during his service.
