Kim Do-jun didn't expect that his military service extension would be denied, and after returning from the United States, he accepted the application for a medical examination from the Military Affairs Agency, and to be honest, he didn't expect it to be a first-class one.

If it is a level one, then it is basically announced that Kim Do-joon only has three places to go, the Air Force, the Navy, and the Marine Corps, which is the so-called Marine.

The period of service in the Air Force is relatively long, about 30 months, that is, two and a half years.

The time in the Navy is a little shorter, reaching 28 months, and the time of Marine Corps service is also more than 26 months, so it can be said that Kim Do-joon has served a little longer than the average artist.

Everyone is trying their best to evade military service, try not to obtain a first-level or second-level physical examination qualification, if it is confirmed, it is doomed that Kim Do-jun will disappear from the entertainment industry for a long time.

No matter how popular an artist is, once he serves in the military, he will face the problem of losing popularity, which is a very common thing in the Korean entertainment industry.

Korean artists, on the other hand, rarely choose to join the active army, and basically choose performing arts, police, court police, and even public service personnel.

Cho In-sung, who is very familiar with Kim Do-jun, seems to have been selected for the Air Force Military Band, and even so, he has served for a long time.

South Korea has a conscription system for all citizens, and the constitution obliges every male citizen to serve in the military, ranging in age from 19 to 36.

If you refuse or abscond, you will face 1 to 3 years in prison.

Of course, college students or those who choose to go to graduate school will choose to apply for a deferment of enlistment, but after graduation. It is still necessary to enter service.

Besides. Excessive training, hard life, and harsh discipline during the military service have all become reasons for young people to avoid military service. South Korea is a country with a strict sense of hierarchy. Nowhere is this more evident than in the military.

Some veterans often take out anger at new recruits, beating them and physically punishing them.

According to South Korean media reports, in the barracks, it is very common for veterans to insult and violate human rights such as insulting, slapping, and stripping off their clothes to recruits, and there are even incidents of superior non-commissioned officers committing ** to recruits.

Most of the "literary and artistic soldiers" are selected from the actors, singers, hosts, comedians, and other showbiz personnel who are in service, and are dispatched to perform in various literary and artistic activities sponsored by the Ministry of National Defense of the Republic of Korea.

At first, the literary and artistic soldiers were to boost the morale of officers and soldiers. Raise the image of the army and build.

However, because they do not have to participate in harsh combat training, literary and artistic soldiers have gradually become a safe haven for showbiz stars to escape service, and in recent years, the media has continuously exposed the news of literary and artistic soldiers' abuse of privileges and bad work style, which has had a negative impact on soldiers who serve honestly, so more and more people are calling for the abolition of the privileges of literary and artistic soldiers and the abolition of the literary and artistic soldier system that has been implemented for so many years.

South Korean actors, with the assistance of their brokerage companies, continue to apply to the court for extension of enlistment, but in fact, they are only trying to extend their acting life as much as possible. In the highly competitive entertainment industry, it is likely to be a "fatal" blow for artists to completely stop performing arts activities during their two-year service period. It will also be an irreparable loss to the brokerage company.

In the second half of 2004, a scandal broke out in the Korean entertainment industry that male celebrities cheated to evade military service. Since the protagonists were the three stars of Song Seung-heon, Jang Hyuk and Han Jae-suk, who were popular at the time, it caused a great sensation. After a massive investigation that lasted more than two months, South Korea's Military Service Agency announced that the three must enlist immediately in November of that year. At the same time, many other male stars who have reached the service age are also required to report on time, so in a period of time from the end of 2004 to the first half of 2005, a large number of male stars began to enlist in the army, such as Won Bin, Su Ji-sub, Ji Cheng, Lee Tingzhen, etc. These male stars are all at the peak of their careers, and they are the leading students of major Korean TV stations, and their collective enlistment makes the production company immediately feel stretched.

Every wave of enlistment climax will cause changes in the Korean entertainment industry.

Without the familiar faces of big names, production companies must rely on training new talents to seize the market.

So after the big shock in 2004, a group of new faces were able to become the new favorites of film and television.

In the summer of 2005, a "My Name is Kim Sam-soon" sent Hyun Bin to the throne of "King of Popularity", and Lee Joon-gi became an instant hit with "The King's Man".

In addition, Jae-hee who starred in "Haojie Chunhyang", Lee Dong-wook who starred in "MyGirl", Cheon Jeong-myung who starred in "Fox, what are you doing", and Zhu Ji-hoon who starred in "Palace" all successfully ascended to the position during this period.

In July 2004, the premiere of "Full House" in South Korea also made Rain successfully transform from a singer to an all-round artist.

As the "post-80s" Korean stars ushered in the peak period of enlistment, another large-scale metabolism in the Korean entertainment industry is inevitable.

Although Kim Do-jun applied for a deferment of service after returning from the United States with the help of his brokerage company, now that the two years are almost up, he will face a notice of enlistment for the second time.

South Korea has a clear rule that there are only two chances to apply for an extension, and Kim Do-joon has already used it once.

Of course, if he is studying, he can choose to report in the army after graduating from college or after graduating with a master's degree, and complete his own responsibilities and obligations.

However, the brokerage company did not know that Kim Do-jun had any plans to study for a master's degree, and did not notify him in advance, so it did not send his study procedures to the Military Affairs Agency as evidence for registration and examination.

Therefore, when the notice came, it was too late to apply for another provisional application, and it was simply too late.

I hurriedly applied for various master's degree admissions, drafted extension reports, and negotiated with the Military Affairs Agency.

After all, Kim Do-joon participated in the filming of movies in Japan and Hollywood, and it was also to promote Korean culture, as one of the stars of the Korean Wave, he cannot be said to be a representative of the Korean Wave, but not all people can star in Hollywood movies, and on this point, Kim Do-jun cannot enlist in the army now.

Besides, he is still very young, he is just 22 years old this year, and most of the star artists in South Korea. Almost all of them are after the age of 28. will go to the army. It would be even more perfect if I wished I had less time to serve, or even not to do military service.

"Brother so Yong, what now?"

Kim Dojun received a call from the company, and he was also confused, he had already undergone a physical examination two years ago, and he also submitted various materials, because of his identity as an artist. The application for an extension was approved, but I didn't expect to receive a notice of military service again.

This kind of thing is something that no one wants to receive, especially the notice issued by the Military Affairs Agency, which is sometimes really scary.

"It's nothing, this kind of thing is normal, when I was in S.M Company, I had to deal with this kind of thing several times a year, and the Military Affairs Agency is like this, and it takes 2 years. There will be all kinds of enlistment notices, and we basically use the reason for studying as a prevarication. By the way, relying on the strength of the company, find some relationships, there is no problem! ”

Kim so-young patted Kim Do-joon on the shoulder, this kind of thing doesn't need to worry about at all, a company like S.M has already thought of a set of processes, and from the beginning to the end, everything is designed perfectly.

If you don't meet the deadline, you're not in a hurry to enlist in the army, who doesn't want to make more money when you're young and popular, in case after 2 years, after you come out, there's nothing, then wouldn't you be a dumb loser, and you can't say anything about your suffering.

Kim Do-jun doesn't want to evade military service, with his own personal thoughts, it is completely unnecessary, if he escapes military service, it will be inappropriate, especially after his identity is exposed, it will become the focus of public opinion, society, and media criticism, so the more this moment, the more calm it is, or finish military service safely, this is the most important thing.

Everything else is fine, you don't even have to worry about business matters, you can use your mobile phone in the barracks, you can also have a fixed holiday, come out to visit relatives or something, but you won't expose your news, when you are resting, you can still be like ordinary people, you can go to the street, eat, and even accompany your family.

"That's good, what should Brother so Yong do next?"

Kim Do-jun continued to ask, he has never experienced this kind of thing, and he doesn't know what to do, and besides, he is still in Japan, and if there is any news, he called from South Korea to tell him, and many things are not very clear.

"It's okay, I'll go back to South Korea tomorrow to help you apply for an extension, just go to Dongguk University to study for a master's degree as a reason, I think there should be no problem, as long as the back is a little bit of operation, go to Changsu for a favor, it's just a little late, it's not a big deal, you can rest assured!"

South Korea still attaches great importance to education and the cultivation of talents, and many students in universities will choose to take a leave of absence and go directly to military service when they are just admitted to university, and then return to school and start studying again after two years.

Although I spent two years in the army, in order to better train myself in the future, after all, the army is still a bigger school, and if I stay in it for a long time, I can exercise my body, and I can also let myself know more and understand this society better.

"That's good, in that case, it's going to be troublesome Brother So Yong, go back and get this matter done, and go and check it out, why my second extension was rejected, what's the problem here!"

Kim Do-joon attaches great importance to his military service, he can't enlist in the army yet, even if he wants to, reality doesn't allow it, and Taeyeon has been separated for more than two years at once, is this realistic?

Except for the new recruits, after training, they can have about two weeks of vacation, and from then on, until they are discharged, there is hardly any long vacation, and they are trapped in the barracks.

If Kim Do-joon's physical examination is level three, level four, or even level five, who made this guy a level one!

Even Kim so Young has a headache, and he can't change it if he wants to find a relationship.

The Korean people are very dissatisfied with the collective fragility of artists, and almost all artists, hosts, even funny artists, have evaded military service for various reasons and obtained lower physical examination grades, many of which are level 3 or even level 4.

Therefore, criticism is endless, and they have asked for a thorough investigation of these artists to see how their real health is, if their health is really so bad, why is it that so frequent filming daily and so many itinerary announcements have not made their bodies collapse?

On the contrary, he appeared on TV with great energy, participated in variety shows, or filmed TV series, movies, etc., isn't this deceiving all the people in the country?

"Daojun, these are not things now, even if it is postponed seven times, isn't this the case with MC Meng, from 1999 to 2006, the time of enlistment was postponed 7 times, and there were two more, and the civil service examination was used as a reason for postponement, and now you are only applying for an extension, but after the time has passed, you can naturally use other methods to continue to apply for other extensions, such as going to the United States to shoot movies and promote movies, but I am very worried about one thing, and I can't escape at all, It's your first-level physical examination report, which is the real big problem! ”

Regardless of other things, Kim so Young has the confidence to settle down, as long as he goes to military service before the age of 30.

But only his physical examination report is already doomed, and he will not easily complete his military service like ordinary people.

With such an excellent body, and he is also a top student who came back from Yale University, it is impossible to make good use of it, not to mention that he is still a first-class student.

This question is bound to be discussed and discussed to see what Daojun has in mind.

"That report of mine? Isn't it level one? I know what you mean, but what can I do, the results of the medical examination are like that! ”

Jin Daojun spread his hands and said a little helplessly, he didn't want to be like this, after all the items were examined, he told himself the result, and he couldn't accept it at that time, and he didn't know these grading standards, what might he do?

"So where exactly do you want to go? Air force? Navy? Or the Marines? ”

In the South Korean military, a large part of the army respects the opinions of individuals, and some people will take the initiative to apply for the air force, and some people will take the initiative to apply for the navy, mainly based on personal interests, personal hobbies, and personal physical condition, and select excellent people from them.

Because these troops are all active troops and regular soldiers, the selection will be very strict, and many of them are not qualified to sign up.

"Marines! Should choose this! ”

Kim Do-jun touched his chin and thought about it for a while, the Air Force, I don't know what to do when I go, do you still want to learn to fly an airplane?

Estimates are also unrealistic.

The navy always sounds like staying at sea for a long time, South Korea is a multi-island country, there are many islands, plus there is the factor of North Korea, so many islands are stationed, so the number of the navy is relatively large.

After thinking about it, Kim Do-joon still chose the Marine Corps, thinking that this might be more suitable for him.

"You choose this? I heard that someone has chosen the same as you, and it seems that they have already found out the news from the brokerage company in advance, so I guess I will have an interview soon! ”

Kim so young leaned back and replied in surprise, he didn't expect Kim Do-jun to choose the same as him.

"Who?"

"Who else can there be, Song Hye Kyo's boyfriend Hyun Bin, I heard that he also chose the Marine Corps, and he volunteered to serve, it is estimated that next year, before March of the year after next at the latest, he will definitely enlist in the army, and I recently heard that he is going to star in SBS's new drama next year, and I don't know what it is!"

Hyun Bin was born in 82, and it is not long before the number of years of military service, and after next year, he will definitely go to the army.

Isn't it a good thing to come back with a better image after two years?

Kim Do-joon and Hyun Bin know each other, but they have never had a chance to speak, and they are not very acquainted.

In the next month, Kim Do-joon ran movie promotion throughout Japan, from Tokyo to Osaka, Nagoya, Nagasaki and other places, and on the other hand, sent Kim so-young back to China to deal with the postponement of military service.

No one thought that what was just a few casual conversations at the beginning became a reality two years later, and Kim Do-jun actually became comrades-in-arms of the Navy with Hyun Bin, which can be regarded as a creation and a trick! (To be continued......)
