Stars in their 20s entering military. Emptiness in Talent Pool-Eric

In 2009, there will be an emptiness in the talent pool as a result of people in their 20s entering military. In the past year, Chin Jeongmin, GongYoo, Jaehee, Eric, Jo SeungYoo have entered the military, and it has been confirmed that in March, Jo In Sung will join the military, making it difficult for producers.


Not only this, but "King's Man" Lee Junki is also planning to enter the army at the end of 2009. Jo Hansun who recently acted in "Pleasant Lie" is also considering entering the army in the later half of the year. As well, active on the big and silver screens are Lee DongWook, Lee DongGun and Lee Kiwoo and others are also due to enter the military.

Army service is a very sensitive issue. The time to confirm entry dates for many actors have come. Actors in the late 20s now are becoming bothered by the dates. This will bring an emptiness to this age group of actors in the film industry. There is also the question of finding new blood to replace them.
