“Hello everyone. I have 57 minutes left (before I enlist),” Yang, with his hair cut short for the military duty.

The singer said he was at a cafe with his family and company staff.

He recalled watching bandmate Yoon Doo-joon’s V Live broadcast, which Yoon aired right before his enlistment.

Yoon, the band’s leader, joined the Army as an active duty solider on Aug. 24.

“I kind of know how you guys would feel right now watching me. As we all know, time will go by fast,” he said.

Yang said his self-written songs would be released at 6 p.m. the same day.

“Listen to them when you happen to think of me, when you miss me and when there is a full moon,” he said.

Yang’s farewell gift for fans, the digital single “20 Full Moons” has two tracks “With You” and “Moonlight.”
