Today is a sad day for many fans in Korea as three celebrities have enlisted into the military.
Super Junior‘s Leeteuk and Mighty Mouth‘s Sangchu have entered together into the 306 reserve at Gyeonggido Uijeongbu, while actor Ryu Sang Wook has been enlisted into the 102 reserve at Kangwondo. The three will be completing a few weeks of basic training before serving as active duty soldiers.
Sangchu was seen off by his fellow member Shorry and a few other celebrity friends, while Leeteuk bid farewell to his Super Junior members and immense sea of ELF that had gathered to see their beloved Super Junior leader leave for the next two years.
Best of luck to the three stars!

Date: 2012-10-30 06:31 am (UTC)*rolls around* I have all of the Child of a Veteran feeeeeeeeels. I'm too tired for language fluency so I'll just leave it at that. xD
Also, I don't care if it looks like fame whoring to other people, I think giving a lot of fans the chance to see him before he goes into the military is a really nice gesture. I know if I could have I probably would have gone to cheer him on, it would have given me a close, warm and fuzzy feeling.
EDIT: After sleeping some I still can't get over how much of a creeper Sungmin looks like in that outfit. Horrible baggy sweater, dark sunglasses and a baseball hat. I think I watch too much Law & Order: SVU.

(Be still my heart, pictures of random Korean infantry dudes doing PT on beaches.)

Date: 2012-10-30 06:40 am (UTC)I really respect that Leeteuk chose to go into an active duty unit rather than public service. Not that I think there's anything wrong with celebrities choosing not to participate in active duty, because that's a really intense decision for anyone to make. But I know that he had to advocate for himself (because of his ridiculous crooked spine) to be allowed to serve in an active unit, and that's a really brave decision. I hope that his time in the military lets him gain some perspective on life and gives him some better anger-management coping skills. God knows he needs them.
(Also: He looks so adorable with no hair! If also heartbreakingly like his dad. *all the feels*)

Date: 2012-10-30 07:18 am (UTC)Enoa03 6 years ago would be absolutely devastated about Teuk's enlistment but since having adult responsibilities of my own, I see this as an opportunity for him to regroup and gain new perspective outside idol life. I wish him all the best and though I will certainly miss him, I look forward to welcoming him again in 2014. I've been a fan for 6 years through major life changes and growing up years, what's another 2 years more?
Heechul will be back in no time as well. Someday my 83-line will be complete <3
P.S I am so happy to see adorable HenHen was there to see him off!

Date: 2012-10-30 07:26 am (UTC)It just makes me sad to think that all three of these guys are probably about to get more sleep, more days off, and better food over the next two years than they have over the past however many (at least ten for Teuk) and they're in the FUCKING ARMY. Celebrity life is killer in Korea, man.
Eternal sigh at everyone who doesn't know these folks personally and is either crying or throwing a party. They're celebrities, if u love them they don't know u and if you hate them just turn off the tv. XD

Sangchu is fine...more muscles please
I'm sure Heechul said bye to both his dear friends the night before.

Date: 2012-10-30 07:43 am (UTC)It will be fascinating to see how much more rapidly these idol enlistments happen. There will be exponentially more guys starting their service beginning with the idols that were big from 2000-2007. Seems like a trickle that will turn into a downpour in the next 5-10 years.
