  "textContent": "**Cha Eunwoo** is making headlines with a **major life update** from the military. It has been reported that he officially received **Catholic baptism** last month.\n\nHis agency, **Fantagio** , quickly confirmed the news, stating:\n\n> _**\"It is true that Cha Eunwoo was baptized into the Catholic Church in June.\"**_\n\nRight now, **Cha Eunwoo** is serving in the **Ministry of National Defense's** **military band**. He reportedly attended a **baptism ceremony** held on base as part of the military's **routine religious activities**. His official **Christian name** is now **John the Apostle**.\n\nThis news is causing a huge stir online because he has **never publicly identified with any religion before**. This marks his first step as a Catholic, and he did it all while quietly doing his time in the military. As a quick refresher, he **enlisted** in **July last year** and is scheduled to be **discharged** in **January 2027**.\n\nPreviously in **January** , Cha Eunwoo got heavily embroiled in **allegations of tax evasion**. The **National Tax Service** launched an **intensive** **audit** into the**one-person agency** established by **his mother** , questioning whether it operated as a **paper company** to alter income distribution. As a result, Cha Eunwoo was hit with a notice for a **massive additional income tax assessment**.\n\nCha Eunwoo didn't drag it out, though. After getting the assessment notice, he **paid** the **full additional tax bill** of **13 billion KRW** (which is around **$8.3 million**) back in **April** , completely wrapping up the legal tax procedures. Since then, he has just been quietly focusing on his service.",
