SS501‘s Kim Kyu Jong will be enlisting in the Korean military this July.
After receiving 4 weeks of basic military training at a recruit training center, he will be serving the country for 2 years.
His representatives remarked, “He could have postponed it a bit longer, but he thought it would be best to go now in order to plan out his later stages of life. After he becomes discharged, he plans to return to the entertainment industry with a lighter heart and mind.”
The singer gave his July enlistment a lot of thought.
Up until now, Kim Kyu Jong has been a member of SS501, promoted with a subgroup, and even released a solo album. Musically speaking, he fulfilled a lot of things that he wanted to accomplish.
He also tried his hand at acting through a musical, a web-toon drama, and TV Chosun‘s weekend drama ‘Saving Ahjooma Go Bong Shil‘.
But Kim Kyu Jong thought it would be important to establish his identity as an actor and a singer before his enlistment, and after discussing it with those around him, he has decided to enlist this July.
His reps continued, “Kyu Jong was born in 1987 so he still has some time before he needs to enlist. But he showed his strong will to serve, and we can look forward to a lot of his activities after his discharge, so we decided to respect his decision.”
Kim Kyu Jong promoted with SS501 under DSP Media, but moved to Lee Hyori‘s agency B2M, fully exploring his options in both music and acting.

ugghhh I'm going to miss him so much. Does this mean we have to wait 2 more years for a SS501 comeback? or maybe even more since who knows when the others will enlist?!?! I'll always be a TripleS though, so I guess I'll wait forever...

He doesn't have to yet! and he hasn't been in any scandel or anything! why would he do this???
I was convinced the 5 of them would have a comeback next year, guess not now. How long are we going to have to wait?

Since when were you able to predict the future? LOL
Anyway, I don't have a problem with your comment except for the fact that your calling the fans delusional. They have every right to believe in what they believe, just like you. And if you think I'm being defensive because I'm a TS, well I'm not a TS. I'm a HyunJoong fan ONLY. It doesn't matter to me if they come back as a group or not. I'll still be supporting him, group or solo. I just find your use of the world "delusional" insulting and uncalled for. It's already a sad day for the fans. Have a heart. It won't kill you.
OK, moving on. I'm shocked by this news. I hope KyuJong will be safe and happy.
hi, @12:29 pm, you can share you own opinion just like the rest.
but personal opinion, you do not need to state that you are ONLY leader's fans. he has nothing to do with this article. let him enjoy his peace, thank you :)
no matter you are a fans or non fans, i guess the blogger Liezle will not might you leave a footstep here even if you are just stopby.
thank you, and let's show kyu support.

Sorry, if you feel that way. It wasn't my intention. I was trying to emphasize that what that person said was offensive even to nonfans of the group, not just KyoJong's fans and TS. It was just uncalled for. That's it. I just wanted to make it clear to that one person that anyone will find it offensive when reading that comment. I'll just keep my mouth shut now as I have offended some.

i understand your point. Thank you. it is really offensive even to non fans. whether we TS want to wait DS or not is not their job!!! we have faith in each other like no one can understand. sometimes we keep our mouth shut is good too. we shall just show action as we are always with SS501 no matter what other say.
ya... i am proud TS who have faith on SS501 and will support forever...^^ one day when we all can reunion, we will show TS and DS power together...^^
just want to let people know this. there is a lot fans ready to cheer SS501 whenever they can comeback together.:) if people have heart, should not take advantages on this and attack instead.
just to voice out what i think. *zip my mouth* now too. the more we talk, the more trouble.hehe...
Hope u are safe and sound in the military.Hooo.Then we have to wait SS501 comeback for two years.But it's okay,of course we'll wait for you guys since we want to see SS501 comeback.Don't worry there are so many fans supporting you guys.SS501 FIGHTING!!!
