JAKARTA - S.Coups from K-pop group SEVENTEEN was officially released from military liability due to a leg injury he experienced last year.

Today, Friday, March 1, PLEDIS Entertainment announced, "As a result of the breakdown of the anterior ligament in the joints of its left knee, S.Coups underwent anterior ligament reconstruction and an overall ligament reconstruction operation."

Due to large surgery, he has been undergoing physical rehabilitation therapy for a long time, from last year until now. As a result, he is classified as Level 5.

Every man serving in the military must take a health test that is determined by the level. The higher the level, their health condition does not meet the requirements to carry out their duties.

Men who are level 5 are exempt from the obligation to go to the military. This is because they have to undergo a number of jobs while serving as a form of support for the military.

In 2023, S.Coups had a tear in the liman area of his left leg and underwent surgery. Although the operation was successful, the SEVENTEEN leader had to rest so he missed the SEVENTEEN concert tour throughout 2023.

On the other hand, SEVENTEEN reportedly released a new album in April. S.Coups, who was previously confirmed to be promoting with the group, now has to wait for a new agency statement. So far, he was confirmed to attend a concert at Incheon this month.

"We will make an official announcement regarding SEVENTEEN's comeback schedule," PleDIS said again.
