Tohoshinki to be drafted into the military



According to a lot of fan sites, Yunho from Tohoshinki has received a letter requesting him to render compulsory military service in Korea as most males ages 19-22 (of Korean nationality) will face in the country.The 5-unit all-male group originated from Korea under SM Entertainment now has moved to Japan under the Rhythm Zone label (avex group) and has enjoyed a big fandom in East Asia, doing concerts in countries like Hong Kong, Malaysia, and Taiwan.This wasn't the first time a Korean male celebrity was drafted into the military. The R&B group in Korea, G.O.D., had been drafted more than a year ago and has disbanded ever since. Shinhwa, another all-male group also from SM Entertainment had also been requested to serve but will enlist on 2008.There have been reports that SM Entertainment will find a way to move the start of the service to 2 years from now as starting the service now might prove detrimental to the group. The group is set to have their first concert in Thailand on December 15th and Xiah Junsu, one of the members, is busy with the Anyband concert in Korea this November 27th. Anyband is the newest ad campaign by Anycall, a mobile service carrier in Korea famous for having famous music stars as endorsers for their mobile carrier service. Some of these stars include BoA, Jin Bora, Tablo of Epik High, etc.It has been discussed that if ever one of the members of TVXQ will have to render military service, the group plans to sign-up together. Some fans have also said that "Hero" Jaejoong, another member of the group, might not be required to render service because of a rule exempts the 'only sons' of Korean families.credits: tellyjae@multiply + Cyxion Forums
