"Hello, this is Yeo Jin Goo!!! As I write this letter, my heart is filled with gratitude, joy, and a little sadness. The time has come for me to leave you for a while and start a new experience. Being able to look into your eyes and laugh together during my last Asia tour before my military service has been a very precious memory for me!!," wrote Yeo Jin Goo.
"Looking back, from the beginning of my journey as an actor until now, you, the fans, have always watched over me and supported me relentlessly. Thanks to your warm love and support, I am able to continue moving forward—entertained, inspired, and full of enthusiasm," he continued.

I'll take care of myself both physically and mentally, and come back with deeper and stronger acting. Please stay healthy, eat well, and live happily during this time!!!," the actor wrote. "Oh, and don't be too sad!! You still have 30 dramas, variety shows, and 20 movies to remember Yeo Jin Goo by!!!
Whenever you miss me, just rewatch them while waiting for me (you will be waiting, right?) - I'll be so grateful! Until we meet again, I'll be back as a better version of myself," he concluded.
