Korean mandatory military service for men aged between 18 and 28 has existed ever since 1957. Exceptions are made for no one, not even our favorite idols! Most Korean men complete their military service in the early 20s. Typically, they will first graduate high school and complete one or two years of university and then start their military service.
There are more than a couple of idol singers that have contributed to drama OSTs over the years. In this article, we list some of those brilliant artists!
BTOB's Lee Changsub finished his military service as an active member of the army on the 21st and has been finally discharged from the military.
The following active groups are indeed praiseworthy for having members that are all solo artists. Talk about versatility! The members of these idol groups have their individuality, excelling either in the music or acting field after releasing official songs or thriving in their solo acting career.
Due to the increasing popularity of K-pop and Hallyu across the globe, several K-pop groups debuting in the third-generation era are getting the attention and support that they deserve even before their debut in the music scene. However, these K-pop groups debuted with little to no hype, but determination and perseverance guided them to achieve the success they are experiencing right now.
Most of the time, the youngest members in K-pop groups appear as the “babies” of the team. Older members tend to pay attention to them more, care for them, and even spoil them to whatever they want to have and do. However, it doesn’t mean that youngest members can always be obedient and innocent to their older members, as, at times, they can be naughty and savage, too.
K-pop idols being in a romantic relationship with other idols still does not sit well with a lot of Koreans, but looking at how some couples are normalizing idols dating, such as Hyuna and Dawn, it is such a precious sight when couples in the Korean pop industry don't mind what people say.
In a glance, you could mistake these K-pop idols as the youngest member of their groups, but can you believe that they are actually one of the oldest members? Due to their young-looking visuals and child-like personality, youw wouldn't be able to tell who is the real and fake maknae!
The following groups may appear like angels and reserved, but it’s the complete opposite once they started entering the variety shows’ rooms - you will finally know how crackheads the idols you are stanning. Here are the K-pop groups that are the most chaotic and funniest especially during variety shows, that you don’t dare to mess up with.
According to media sources on July 29, BTOB's Changsub has been discharged from the military following his final vacation during the mandatory military service.
Korean netizens decided which K-Pop idol they consider legendary, to the point where there are no bad songs and that if they played it, no song would be skipped. Did your favorite album make the list?
