Who are male artists who have the same age as Lee Jong Suk (born in 1989) but have not enlisted in the military?
On July 21, a media reported that Lee Jong Suk has received a military registration letter from the Military Labor Administration. Lee Jong Suk was offered a role in the movie ‘Whitch’ by director Park Hoon Jung, but decided to decline it because he had to enlist soon.
Many fans sent their support and encouragement to Lee Jong Suk regarding the news of the mandatory enlistment. Lee Jong Suk, who was born in 1989, is now 29 years old. He is already late for military service as most Korean men sign up for military service in their early 20s. Lee Jong Suk has had a hard time enlisting due to his acting career.
If so, then who are the artists born in the year of 1989 but have not enlisted as well? The first is a member of CNBLUE, Jung Yong Hwa. Jung Yong Hwa is not only active in singing activities, but also in a tvN show called ‘The Three Musketeers’ a few years ago. In April, Jung Yong Hwa was interviewed by one media and said, “I am preparing for compulsory military service. Though I have not decided the date yet, as a young Korean, I want to always be remembered as an obedient citizen.”
The last one is a member of BIGBANG, Daesung. Daesung is BIGBANG’s lead vocal who made K-POP known by the world through Hallyu wave. Daesung once said, “It’s natural for a young Korean to go to the army,” He promised to do his military service enthusiastically when the time comes.
