jo sungmo looks a bit too happy isn’t it :p
Ya, JSM looks like coming out from jail instead of the army :)
Maybe JSM does look really happy but who wouldn’t, the ARMY is horrrid and some MEN don’t survive it, sad but true. Life in the ARMY is not easy.
WELCOME BACK BOYS, or should we call you MEN!!!
Now we can continue to see the YEH & KJK evovle. We do know you wold like you privacy but we LOVE YOU TOO MUCH to leave you alone.
GOOD LUCK.
Well, army life for these guys are not as hard as you thought… it’s different from real army trainings.
They got into army training for 2-3 months, and then sat in offices doing paper work for another 22-24 months… it might be boring, but it won’t kill.
lol, they’re wearing similar hats in the picture.
so how long exactly did they spent there?
and what other korean celebs are serving for the army now?
Ya, most of the stars that are released from the army wore those hats when they were discharged. I guess it’s part of their uniform… and they are trying to hide their messy hair.
These two fellas spent 26 months there. The standard is 24-28 if not mistaken.
The recent new entries to the army include Haha, Kangta and Gong Yoo… at least a dozen or two big names but can’t recall all. Shinhwa’s member Eric and Minwoo will be joining in by October or November 2008… Lee Junki probably by next year.
lol, why would their hair be messy?
they don’t get to tidy up themselves?
so they stay there for 2 years doing paper work?
that’s very boring indeed.
i will miss eric and minwoo.
Normally their hair would be quite short during military service… some of the stars would be ok with it, but some might not.
Paper work is just a general term… they are variety of duties to be performed. Just saying that it’s not as tough as some people were thinking (battlefield and physical training etc.)
