Yunho of TVXQ and one of the representatives of K-pop idol groups now serving the military will reportedly be returning to society soon. After finishing his stint in active military duty, he will be discharged in Apr. 20. The pop-star enlisted into Yangju City's 26th Mechanised Infantry Division as an active-duty soldier and is also in the military band.

He became the leader of his squadron and was a recipient of the "Best Recruit" award. Yunho, according to Soompi, had scored above 90 percent mark in all highly difficult physical and mental examinations. His exploits apparently landed him the "Special Class Soldier" award, a title allegedly only one percent of land troops can bear.

Accordingly, one thing about male k-pop idols is that not even their fame can spare them from South Korea's mandatory military service, says Koreaboo. All male South Korean citizen are being required to enlist in the army or national service and serve for approximately two years. All men between the ages of 18 and 35, must perform their military service with a term of duty that ranges from 21 to 36 months.

Having served his term, Yunho can now return to the stage and perform as a celebrity with his group TVXQ. Reportedly in the wee hours on April 1, over 1,000 fans arrived at Yangju's Culture and Art Center to witness the K-pop star's final public performance at the Concert for Citizens and Army Personnel. The master of the stage proved once again that he is the king,

Since his K-pop debut in 2004 with TVXQ, Yunho's strong charisma has made him very popular both domestically and internationally. This is allegedly the main reason that fans are looking forward to his discharge from active military duties. On the other hand, Choikang Changmin, who is also a member of TVXQ is currently serving as a police constable at the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency and will be discharged in Aug.
