Jung Kyung-ho clarifies military enlistment rumors
by | July 9, 2010 | 16 Comments

There has been a wave of reports that actor Jung Kyung-ho (Smile) is up for army duty soon, and on July 9 his management company, N.O.A Entertainment, issued a statement to rebut those rumors and clarify the situation.

As a 1983-er, the clock is ticking for Jung but he has a little more time than his 1982-er counterparts, who must enlist by the end of the year. His rep explained that he will be going soon enough, but that he hasn’t yet received his draft notice. It was added, “When Jung Kyung-ho does receive his notice, he plans to enlist without delays, and the management company will make an official announcement through the press once his schedule is confirmed.”

In case you, like me, were curious about his Drama Special episode with Jung Yumi, titled The Great Gye Choon-bin, it had been previously scheduled to air last week but was postponed. It airs tomorrow, July 10, on KBS.

    Loved him in Smile You. He was cute, nerdy and desirable at the same time. I just wanted to hug him. LOL loved the elevator scene, where he tries to act macho but fails. :D That drama had a lot of sweet moments. They were such a sweet couple.
    Frog and mismatched eyes :P

    Can’t wait to see him in this ! :D

    Kyungho-shi, before you go off to the army, leave us some more happy memories. Why don’t you and Minjung-shi just date already? Pretty please!

    I love both of you, really, really.

    :)

    I’m aboard the Smile You train too! The other storylines dragged the overall drama, but the lead couple’s chemistry and uber cuteness helped me finish it to the end. Jung Kyung Ho always shows a different side of himself through the characters he plays. He and Kim Min Jung should date. =D

    Gahh I don’t want him to go. Two years is too long T_T I hope he films at least one more drama or movie before he leaves. XD
