The Military Manpower Administration (MMA), led by Hong So-young, will start accepting applications for the '2027 Active Duty Date Selection' on July 22.
According to the MMA on July 8, eligible applicants include those born in 2007 who have undergone military service examinations this year and have been deemed fit for active duty, as well as students currently enrolled in or on leave from university, and individuals deferring service due to long-term overseas residency.
Application schedules vary by region and will close on a first-come, first-served basis, so applicants should check the MMA's website for details regarding their local office, application times, and important notes.
To apply, individuals can access the MMA's website or app, verify their identity, and select their desired enlistment date through the 'Active Duty Date Selection Application' for the following year.
Those wishing to enlist in the Army in 2027 can choose their enlistment date based on their academic or employment schedules. After selecting a date, they can also confirm their assigned unit. Changes or cancellations to the selected enlistment date are allowed once.
The application process for selecting active duty enlistment dates will occur in three phases, with this being the first phase. Those who have not yet undergone military service examinations or who miss the first application period for unavoidable reasons can apply during the second phase (September 16-18) or the third phase (November 25-27).
