Less than a week in, he\u2019s already been sharing glimpses of how challenging the training is. Sanha, his bandmate, talked about it in their group chat with fans. He shared that Cha Eun Woo asked in disbelief how MJ, their older member who already completed his service, managed to get through it. He even messaged, \u201cHow did MJ do it? Save me,\u201d during the short hour trainees are allowed on their phones each day.<\/p>\n<p>Even though Cha Eun Woo is fit, he\u2019s finding the adjustment hard. Fans were relieved when Sanha added that he seems to be getting used to it, showing his determination to push through. He enlisted on July 28 at the Korea Army Training Center in Nonsan, South Chungcheong Province. After finishing the two-week basic training, he will serve in the military band for about 18 months, with an expected discharge around January 27, 2027.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s also been a funny but slightly overwhelming incident. Other trainees were apparently staring at him so much that an instructor had to step in and remind everyone that he\u2019s just a regular person like them. Even fans online laughed at the situation, imagining the star being treated like a celebrity in uniform. It\u2019s clear that Cha Eun Woo is facing the realities of military life head-on, but with fans cheering him on, he seems ready to take it in stride.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cha Eun Woo, the ASTRO singer and actor known for True Beauty, has recently started his mandatory military service, and\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":294,"featured_media":91425,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[67],"tags":[31035],"class_list":["post-91424","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-celebrity-news","tag-cha-eun-woo"],"reading_time":"2 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/91424","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/294"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=91424"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/91424\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/91425"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=91424"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=91424"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=91424"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
