Hmmm. But some would say that him going off now while he's on fire might be a good thing? Since, you know, leave a star, come back and there will still be enough of a demand. It has worked for others. Or who knows, maybe the Kang Dong Won (Kyaaaaaaaaaaaa) way is best too. XD

Well, te way I see it - the sooner they go, the sooner they return. And they all have to go anyway. If Kim Soo Hyun went to the army now, we could see a rare phenomenon - a 28 year old guy at large in the showbiz after his release!

I just love you gals, thankfully non of you are enlisting...

"Soon it’ll be: “Joo-won has a fever!” and “Lee Min-ho grew two inches!”," laughed so hard at those.

Wouldn't it be a good idea to go after such big hits.. Look at Hyun bin coming back already, and everyone's like Secret Garden was two years ago?!!

I am all for getting his military service over and done with when he's popular. However, he only just recently reached this crazy popularity of his, so I don't know. He should go after a couple more hits :D:D I can't let go of too many at once. Lee Je Hoon was hard enough. I already sense Song Joong Ki's time is coming. Not Kim Soo Hyun too! aldkfjaldkfjk All my biases will be gone!

I actually think this would be a good time to go to the army - let's face it, there aren't many parts for actors his age and he could get his military service over and done with before he enters his prime years as an actor. It would also win him a lot admiration and build up anticipation for his return.

:)
I don't know, if he has to go now, I think there will be more benefit for him, besides it's only two years.
It will be interesting if we see Jang Geun Suk go to the army, right? ...
^__^

I love that Lee Min-ho popped up on this tag. Love him right now!

Is is really only 2 weeks until Hyun Bin gets out? Secret Garden seems like just last winter. Oh, it's ridiculous how fast time passes in drama world. I love that he's a marine. If you're going to do it, then do it big. He respect from me for that.

Does anyone know when Rain's getting out? His music was the soundtrack for my life back in 2009. :-)

He should go. He will be a huge star when he comes back.

JB, this noona had a minor episode of lung function arrest, but all is well now. I have full lung capacity again.

I agree with those who say he should just go and get it over with instead of delaying to the last possible moment. Or maybe go after one my tv series. He is already gorgeous, can you imagine how hot he will be post army duty?

If Lee Min Ho grew two inches taller, it would make me want to do all sorts of things to him even more, but yelling isn't one of them. ;D

I remember reading that Kim Soo Hyun had surgery in 2010 due to arrhythmia and supraventricular tachycardia. It was said at the time that with the surgery he was healthy again, and with medication he was not expected to have any more problems. I am not so sure this would qualify him for combat duty, maybe public service.

HOLD THE PHONE! Binnie is coming back in TWO weeks???? GAAAHHH! Doing a happy dance people.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

OK, freakout over. For now. Maybe it would be good to start seeing shirtless muscle scenes before he's 30...? I mean, that never happens with actors, right?

Frankly, I think the sooner you go, the sooner you're out too. If you're out and you're still 26, how hot would that be?! There are actually 28 year olds in the industry. :) I do totally understand the traditional concept. Maybe do what they do in TW (although their time is much shorter now)... release a bunch of stuff while serving and then you're still in the limelight even though you can't promote.

Besides, he's so talented and good actor, korea would be missing something if they did not fully embrace him when he returns. But I wonder if the mgmt companies have a lot of say in it. They like to make the most money now when it's more of a sure thing I guess. I don't really know how the industry works, but just guessing since, money talks.

I think it would be good if he just got it out of the way...

Yeah, I think it might be a smart move for KSH to do it now. He'll be more marketable when other '87-88ers go to do their service later.

Personally, I would like my faves to go one at a time, so that way I can still watch some of them on screen.

The order should be like this KSH--->Jung Il-woo-->LMH (weep).

Oh, all the heartaches, if Seung Gi is to go to the army. Withdrawal syndrome.

Hate to say this....but if there is no great project for Kdrama, should he focus on movie career? Thus he can cooperate with those best directors and actors in zhong-wu road! Even have chance to win awards globalwide! I imagine Soo Hyun another talent as Kang Dong-won and Bin Won: low-key but classy!! As awesome it would be to see Soo Hyun on big screens 30 yrs from now...like those industry icons Song Kang-ho, Ahn Seong-gi,Choi Min-sik...I know it's still a long way to go, but....I really think Kim Soo Hyun deserves such bright future for so many surprises he has brought to the industry!!! Hope Keyeast could help him to become what he meant to be~~ Sometimes this career path ask an actor to have less entertainment exposure, sometimes may need to give up fame or money..Best of Luck Soo Hyun xi!!!!
