[08.10.13][news] Photo of dignified Eric in military training released

A picture of Shinhwa leader Eric Mun Jung Hyuk (29) at the military training center has been released to the public. Eric is currently undergoing a 4-week military training. On 13th Oct, the official website for the training center posted a photograph taken on 9th Oct at Chungnam's Nonsan Training Center that featured Eric. In the photo, with his piercing gaze, Eric seemed to be in high spirits as he cheered with the rest of the recruits.

When Eric enlisted on 9th Oct, he promised the fans that he would "proudly fulfill his responsibility to the country". He also said, "Please wait for a short while, in 4 years' time Shinhwa will be back together with a reunion concert. We will definitely keep this promise to restart our group activities. In the meantime, please wait for us."

Eric has given up his US citizenship in 2003 to stay in Korea for his career, and thus it meant that he now had to serve his military duty as well. He was initially assigned for active duty after medical checks, but owing to an onset accident on MBC drama Wolf in 2006, he was re-deployed to serve as a civil service officer instead. Eric will be assigned to Seoul Metro after his basic military training.
