Hong Sa Bin Surprises With Sudden Military Enlistment Announcement, Two Days After Winning Best Rookie Actor At The Blue Dragon Film Awards

The actor Hong Sa Bin will be enlisting in December!

According to a representative from Hong Sa Bin’s agency he will be enlisting on December 19th.

Debuting in 2018 with the film ‘Vacation’, Hong Sa Bin has appeared in various works such as ‘The Book of Fish’, ‘My Love, My Bride’, ‘Hi Bye, Mama!’, the drama ‘Duty After School,’ ‘Moving’, and more. He recently starred in his first leading role in the film “Hopeless.”

Hong Sa Bin has showcased his outstanding acting skills and received the Rising Star Award at the 8th London Asian Film Festival and the Best New Actor Award at the 44th Blue Dragon Film Awards held on the 24th.

The sudden decision to enlist amidst the increasing interest in the actor is somewhat puzzling. It may have been a better decision to delay the enlistment for about a year, considering the actor’s current popularity.

The representative commented on this point saying, “Hong Sa Bin received a great response from ‘Hopeless’ and was nominated for various awards. There were many discussions between the actor and the company regarding the enlistment date. We thought it shouldn’t be delayed any further, and there was also an opinion that it would be better to go and come back quickly, so we made the decision.”

Meanwhile, Hong Sa Bin received the Best New Actor Award at the Blue Dragon Film Awards.
