K-Pop BTS.


This is coolbert:

Not shirking their military service as mandated by law. South Korean celebrities! Elvis Presley lives and he is a Korean!

See previous blog entry as relevant: https://militaryanalysis.blogspot.com/2022/09/bones.html

"K-Pop stars BTS will be forced to serve in South Korea’s military after all—and reconvene as a group ‘around 2025’"

From fortune.com the original story from the AP October 17, 2022.

"The members of K-pop band BTS will serve their mandatory military duties under South Korean law, their management company said Monday, effectively ending a debate on exempting them because of their artistic accomplishments."

"Big Hit Music said the band’s oldest member, Jin, will revoke his request to delay his conscription at the end of the month and undertake the required conscription steps. The six other members also plan to serve in the military, according to the company’s notice to financial regulators, which it described as management-related information that could possibly affect investment decisions."

"That other Korean 'celebrity' in 2010 having his front teeth yanked to avoid conscription and military service. That individual must now feel shamed and big time! Jin in contrast setting the standard for which he can stand proud!

About $1 billion USD in contracts are to be lost for a period of time! It can be reasonably expected too that K-Pop  BTS might not recover their luster ever? Honor however takes precedent over the won! I should hope so.
