He will be receiving five weeks of basic military training at the training base before being stationed to a particular military base.

TAEYANG is expected to discharge from the army in December 2019.
Currently, a fellow member T.O.P serves his alternative military service as a public service worker, and the group's leader G-DRAGON enlisted in the military on February 27.

On March 13, DAESUNG, another member of BIGBANG also joins the army.

BIGBANG's management agency YG Entertainment recently stated that SEUNGRI, the last member to serve the mandatory duty, will be enlisting in the military after the promotion of his upcoming Chinese movie 'Love Only' and solo album, but his enlistment date has not been officially announced yet.

It is expected that BIGBANG's return as five members will take some time.
