Ahead of his scheduled mandatory military enlistment in South Korea on July 28, actor-singer Cha Eun-woo has flaunted his new army hairdo.
The member of K-pop boy band Astro posted a series of photos of his crop on Instagram on July 21 with the caption: “These days.”
The star of K-dramas like My ID Is Gangnam Beauty (2018) and Wonderful World (2024) is seen donning a party crown and holding a cake against a “We Will Miss U” backdrop. Other images show his visit to the hair salon and his fresh look.
Cha’s agency Fantagio previously said in May that the 28-year-old idol will join the army’s military band after completing his basic military training.
His next project will be Netflix’s superhero comedy series The Wonderfools (2026), as well as First Ride, a comedy film in which Cha plays one of four childhood friends who go on an overseas trip together. The release date has not been announced.
Cha was last in Singapore in April 2024 for his solo fan concert, as part of his Just One 10 Minute (Mystery Elevator) tour, at The Star Theatre.
From July 31 to Aug 16, fans can catch his virtual reality special Cha Eun-Woo VR Concert: Memories GV Bugis+. The immersive journey allows viewers to personalise their concert experience, choosing the locations, backgrounds, images and choreography. Tickets are priced at $38 for Golden Village Movie Club members and $40 for non-members.
