Park Bo Gum's Military Achievements: From Joining the Navy's Military Band to Passing Barber License Exam 

To recall, on February 21, 2022, the 28-year-old star officially ended his military service two months earlier than expected. 

This is because the actor wasn't able to use his personal leaves due to the COVID-19 pandemic and did not return to the base once his vacation was over. 

The "Love in the Moonlight" star joined the military in August 2020 and participated in the Navy's Military Band.
