Apparently History's Kyungil is enlisting too, so at least he'll have a friend to go in with.

Are you still in denial, Omona? Are any of your faves enlisting soon?

oops didn't mean to answer to ur comment

In another article they said that at least Daesung and Seungri are thinking of enlisting early and according to fan accounts Seungri said that GD told him to enlist with him. Apparently when TOP left Hawaii to take his exam, Taeyang was with him (second oldest in thr group). From what I know, GD already took the physicals for enlistment a long time ago because according to the rumors, he tried to enlist in either 2011-2012 but YG didnt let him. So I think if it was up to them, they would enlist together.

On the one hand I do wish they'd all enlist together so they could just get it over with and come back as 5, but I can see why YG wouldn't want all of them off the radar for that long. Even between albums, you still have members doing solo promotions, filming etc. and touring.

As it is, 3/5 of them are going to have to enlist by mid-next year and I don't know what I'm going to do TT_TT

omona did him so dirty, couldn't even get him to the finals of the sexiest men alive battle

[donaldjdrumpf.livejournal.com]

I think Omona must get bored, because honestly he should repeat as champion every year.

[shazz-chan.livejournal.com]

IKR I was shook at him not getting through :/

[typhlogirl.livejournal.com]

Exactly why I peaced out tbh

[bunnyfries.livejournal.com]

I'm relieved it wasn't him tbh, we needed new (more worthy) blood. Love him but he's overhyped

[jileader.livejournal.com]

he didn't have to win, i'm just bitter he was out of the race in the first/second round hahah

[mjspice.livejournal.com]

Mte. That was a surprise.

[donaldjdrumpf.livejournal.com]

I don't really like the concept of the draft/mandatory service tbh, but then again I don't like next to North Korea so...

[typhlogirl.livejournal.com]

[gathyou.livejournal.com]

2010-me would be ugly crying in a corner. I'm still sad, it's going to be two long years.

[mjspice.livejournal.com]

Dang. Well it's only two years unless there's a real war. :/

[dynamite-state.livejournal.com]

who will spam my instagram timeline now??

[atelierlune.livejournal.com]

We knew this day was coming. I'm not going to sit here and act like the thought of him going to the military hasn't filled me with apprehension, but I want him to go, have a quiet, uneventful service period, and come back to live his life.
