The current military service law is that men over the age of 28 must join the military.

However, if special reasons are recognized by the Military Manpower Administration, the enlistment date may be postponed until the age of 30.

Therefore, among the stars who postponed their enlistment for the sake of the entertainment industry, must enlist in the army unconditionally this year.

Changmo, who was born in 1994 and is 28 years old this year according to the Military Manpower Administration's calculation method, is due to enlistment in the military this year.

In December 2021, Changmo announced on his Instagram that he would be enlisting in the military in early 2022.

On January 23, he regretted not being able to leave the military early and released a picture of his hair shaved.

In addition, Jin, the eldest brother of BTS, who is gaining worldwide popularity, has to go to the military this year.

Jin, who was born in 1992, has already passed the age of enlistment, but his enlistment has been delayed until the age of 30 according to the amendment to the Military Service Act for Outstanding Popular Culture and Arts that was implemented in June of last year.

Accordingly, Jin must unconditionally enlist in the military by December 31, 2022.

P.O, who had to enlist in the military at the age of 28 in 2021, said that he delayed his enlistment until December last year. Therefore, P.O is expected to enlist within this year. Ravi and Song Min Ho, who are the same age as P.O, have passed the age of 28, which can postpone enlistment, so they must enlist in the army within 2022.

In addition, Song Kang, Nam Joo Hyuk, and EXO Kai, born in 1994, who are 28 years old are also expected to join the military this year. This is because, according to the Military Service Standards Act, people born in 1994 must enlist in the army by the end of December of this year, regardless of their birthday.

Kim Jaejoong, the famous singer and businessman, recently revealed that he was the victim of a hacking incident involving his Kakao Pay account, raising concerns about his financial safety.

On May 7, the star shared his experience with fans via the official fan platform From, explaining that his Kakao Pay account was hacked and the password was changed without his permission. As a result, Kim Jaejoong was locked out of his account and couldn’t access any of his information, which made the situation even more difficult to handle.

He expressed frustration over the customer service process, sharing that he had contacted support multiple times for help. Despite talking to a representative for over an hour, the issue wasn’t resolved. Kim Jaejoong pointed out a flaw in the system: “The hacker changed the password, so why do I, the victim, have to prove everything?”

Things only got worse when he was told he would be connected to another representative, only for it to be the same department. He admitted, “I was mentally crushed” after realizing the lack of progress. While he acknowledged that the customer service staff was working hard, he couldn’t help but feel that the system was too weak to handle such incidents.

Fortunately, after two days of struggle, the situation was finally resolved. Kim Jae Joong confirmed that his account was closed and deleted, and luckily, no financial loss occurred. “It was truly a terrifying day,” he shared, relieved that the problem was fixed.

Despite the scary experience, Kim Jaejoong continues to thrive in other areas of his career. In 2023, he co-founded iNKODE Entertainment, a company where he works as a producer and businessman. iNKODE Entertainment currently manages artists like Oh Ji Yul, Jung Si Hyun, Lee Ji Hoon, and others. Kim Jae joong also launched the 7-member girl group Say My Name last year.

Even though he’s facing challenges, Kim Jaejoong’s career remains strong, and he’s taking steps to ensure this type of situation doesn’t happen again.
