Hallyu star Lee Min-ho finally opened up about his military enlistment, in an interview with a Chinese media outlet, Friday.

Although the agency had asked the interviewers not to bring up the topic of “enlistment,” Lee opened up about it on his own.

“I heard that a fan shaved her hair as a sign that she would wait for me during the years as a soldier,” he said.

“I was really touched by her meaningful actions. But unfortunately there are no specific details or plans regarding my enlistment yet. Her hair might have grown back by then.”

Lee Min-ho is to return to the big screen with a Chinese film “Bounty Hunters” set to hit cinemas on June 9.
