Block B Member P.O. Has Completed Military Service

On September 27, P.O marked a significant milestone as he officially completed his 1-year and 6-month military service, holding the rank of sergeant. His military journey began on March 28, 2022, when he enlisted and joined the Marine Corps, serving as a member of the military band.

Expressing his joy and gratitude, P.O took to Instagram to announce his discharge, calling it a “happy moment” in his life. “Jihoon has finally completed his military service,” he wrote. “It’s admirable and impressive, aren’t we all feeling the same way?”

Fans are truly proud of Pyo Jihoon and there is an important reason why he was so determined to enlist for military service. Back in June, the musician pleasantly surprised his fans by making an appearance on the “National Defense News” YouTube channel. During the interview, he shared updates about his military service and revealed the heartfelt reason behind his decision to enlist – fulfilling his late mother’s wish.

Pyo Jihoon’s path to military service was not without its challenges. He had applied to join the Marine Corps three times, from the ages of 27 to 29, facing setbacks due to his previous school attendance issues caused by his debut in the entertainment industry. However, he persevered, eventually securing a spot in the military band. Reflecting on his journey, P.O described his time in the military as an invaluable experience that he believes every Korean man should undergo at least once in their lifetime.

P.O, who debuted as part of Block B in 2011, was the last member of the group to complete his military service. His return has ignited excitement among his fellow Block B members and fans, raising hopes for a potential group comeback in the near future.
