JAKARTA - Baekhyun EXO will undergo military service on May 6 as a public worker. The decision made fans wonder considering the other EXO members mostly chose to become active soldiers.

Saturday, April 3, Dispatch wrote that Baekhyun was released from active duty because of the hypothyroidism he had been suffering from for a long time. Baekhyun also expressed this through a community platform where he could talk with fans.

The South Korean military said there are several levels in determining a person's duties. Baekhyun is known to have been undergoing treatment for a long time so he is in 4th Grade, which is the lowest level.

Hypothyroidism is a condition in which the thyroid gland is deficient in hormones and causes metabolic conditions that are easy, fatigue, sluggishness, weight gain, swelling, and others.

Baekhyun himself explained that he realized this condition when he was still in middle school. Until now Baekhyun continues to have blood tests once a year and takes regular medication.

The Bambi singer will conduct basic military training for three weeks and start serving as a public servant. Before carrying out his assignment, Baekhyun released his third mini-album titled Bambi at the end of March.

Baekhyun is the sixth member of EXO to enlist in the military after Xiumin, DO, Suho, Chen, and Chanyeol. Baekhyun will start his duties on May 6.
