Posting through his official Twitter, the actor wrote:

“Hello, this is private first class Lee Jun Ki, who is currently awaiting his promotion as a corporal. Attention!

Have you all been well? It’s been a while since I’ve received a break, but I’m currently spending my final break as a private first class right now. Having come out into the world again after such a long time, I’m finding it difficult to adjust. Seems like the world is going on just fine.

While serving, your unchanging love for me has become a great source of strength. Today (the 17th) was my birthday, but as I am a soldier, I was not able to return all of the support you have shown me today. I feel very apologetic for that.

Thank you for remembering every year. Thank you so, so much.”

Fans commented, “He’s become so masculine”, and “The picture looks straight out of a movie.”
