Super Junior Yesung Enters Military Training Like 007

Super Junior's Yesung entered the military. To the disappointment of fans and media reporters who arrived to hear a few words from him, Yesung walked into the military base in secrecy.

Yesung is certainly not the first celebrity to execute a 007 operation to enter the military without much publicity. Actors Kang Dong Won and Yoo Seung Ho also went about it in a similar fashion.

Why do some celebrities choose to enter the military without much fanfare?

Back in November 2011, Kang Dong Won entered military service without public announcement. "We do not want to make a big deal out of something that every male citizen has to do as a countryman." His release date was also kept secret and he exited the camp in private.

Yoo Seung Ho was even more confidential about his entering military service in March. Only his immediate family and management staff members were informed. Prior to enlistment, Yoo Seung Ho posted on his online fan café, "It is a great time to join the military and it is something I have been looking forward to. I have been wanting to get away from the same old routine after ten years of acting. So I am glad to face this new experience."

Similarly, Yesung entered military training without a formal interview because, as his management company revealed, "it is something everyone does. Yesung just wanted to keep it quiet."
