Could be a platform error

Online users suggested that it could be a platform error, and fromm might have accidentally used a template meant for male artistes.

At the time of writing, Solar's agency RBW Entertainment has not released an official statement to clarify the situation.

In South Korea, military service is mandatory for all abled males aged 18 to 35. It is not mandatory for women.

Solar is expected to hold a solo concert in Singapore at the Arena@Expo next month on Nov. 22.
