In a recent press conference, Stray Kids‘ Lee Know speaks candidly about his military enlistment plans and makes fans a promise for his return.
On August 6th, the members of Stray Kids reunite amid the boy group promotions for their new mini album ‘THIS & THAT‘ to answer questions about this comeback and their plans for the upcoming hiatus for the Korean members to complete their military duty.
During the conversation, Lee Know claimed, “Fulfilling national service is a responsibility I will carry out sincerely when called upon,” as he is the first of the group expected to join the army due to being the oldest South Korean member.
