Supernova's Yoonhak to enlist on October 25th + temporary leader appointed

[xshinebrighterx.livejournal.com]

Earlier on it was revealed that Supernova's leader Yoonhak was drafted for his military duties and would be leaving sometime in October. At Supernova's concert in Nagoya, Japan earlier this month, the group unveiled that their leader will be enlisting on October 25th. 

It was also revealed that a new and temporary leader, Sungje, was appointed to serve the duties of a group's leader during the absence of Yoonhak. Sungje, being the second oldest of the group, had previously been appointed as leader prior to Yoonhak's entrance to the group.

In addition, it was reported that Yoonhak will be serving 18 months instead of the usual 24 months, as he was rewarded a shorter draft because of his studies. Yoonhak studied in Japan and even worked as an interpreter before joining the male group. He had even received an academic award for being one of South Korea's top scholars as outstanding student.

Supernova is also set on having a fanmeet before Yoonhak's enlistment. The meeting, titled "For You," will be held on October 16th at the Saitama Super Arena. The news was revealed through their official website.

I still can't believe he's a) the oldest b) older than I am which is a phenomenon I rarely encounter in Kpop.

That said, seeing idols leave for the army and the reactions of their bandmates is just seriously heartbreaking :,(
