Actor Na In-woo has been exempted from military service.

On the 17th, news broke that Na In-woo was exempted from military service while waiting for his call-up as a social service agent. According to the initial report, Na In-woo was waiting for his enlistment after receiving a grade 4 supplementary service rating during a physical examination. However, he became an ‘exempt person’ after 3 years without receiving a call-up notice from the Military Manpower Administration.

According to the Military Service Act, if you are not called up for 3 years after receiving a grade 4 supplementary service rating, you are ‘exempted from military service’.

Na In-woo‘s agency, Hanada Company, acknowledged the facts. However, they remained tight-lipped about why he received a grade 4 supplementary service rating.

Na In-woo will meet viewers in January next year through MBC’s new Friday-Saturday drama ‘Motel California’. It was expected to be his last work before his military enlistment, but he plans to continue his active career after receiving a grade 4 exemption.
