 There are BTS and Taekyeon who refused preferential treatment...Song Min-ho, Top, Rabbi, Seven Years of Military Service Scandal Disgrace



Group WINNER Song Min-ho is embroiled in a suspicion of poor service.

On the 17th, allegations were raised that Song Min-ho, who is working as an alternative social service worker, did not go to work properly at the Mapo resident convenience facility, where he worked, and even manipulated his commuting records.

In this regard, YG Entertainment (hereinafter referred to as YG), the agency, said "It is difficult to confirm details related to the artist's service. However, sick leave was used in accordance with the regulations, and the reason was the extension of the treatment received before service.




The facility also served in accordance with regulations" reported his position.

Song Min-ho started his military service in March last year, but a month later, he attended his younger brother's wedding in the United States in April. At that time, Song Min-ho walked the Virgin Road holding his younger brother's hand on behalf of his father's vacancy, but it was controversial because he maintained a long hair style that would not have been possible if he had entered the training center.




Accordingly, YG went through formal procedures and left the country. He explained that he was excluded from basic military education after being reviewed by the Military Manpower Administration.

However, in April, the appearance of long hair was revealed, and criticism arose once again. As such a history, the public is also paying cold attention to Song Min-ho's alleged poor service. The Military Manpower Administration also started to find out the facts about Song Min-ho's alleged poor service, such as manipulating his work.

It's not just Song Minho.

Ravi, a former VIXX member, was exempted from military service by deceiving him as if he was suffering from epilepsy. Ravi was sentenced to one year in prison and two years of probation in the first trial, but he was put on trial again after the prosecution appealed. Depending on the outcome of the trial, he may have to re-enter active duty.

Rapper Napla, a Grublin rapper with Rabi as head, was also sentenced to one year and two months in prison and suspended for two years for attempting to evade military service due to depression and other reasons while serving as a social service worker.

Top, from Big Bang, started his military service again as a social service worker after smoking cannabis while serving as a medical police officer. However, he was suspected of serving poorly, using sick leave on average three to four times that of other soldiers serving together in the same jurisdiction and not submitting medical certificates necessary for sick leave use.

Seven was controversial in 2013 when he entered the massage parlour while serving as an entertainment soldier.

In the midst of this, stars who have been exemplary in the military are also being re-examined. 2PM Taekyeon moved to the United States with his family in 2000 and obtained permanent residency, so he was exempted from military service. However, in 2010, he boldly gave up his permanent residency and expressed his intention to join the military. In the military service examination, he was diagnosed with a herniated disk in the fourth grade, but he underwent back surgery twice in 2012 and 2013 to join the active military and even performed elbow surgery. In the end, Taecyeon finished her military career as an active member. As many applause poured out, he even showed humility, saying, `Of course, duty.' He is considered a likeable star.

There was an opinion that the group BTS should recognize the contribution to promoting national prestige, such as attending the UN General Assembly as a representative of K-pop, and provide alternative service or exemption. In fact, discussions took place at the National Assembly, but BTS rejected preferential treatment and chose to join the military. Starting with Jin canceling the postponement of his enlistment and joining the army, the members entered the military service sequentially, and even most of them are faithfully serving in the military, winning titles such as early advancement, special soldiers, and excellent soldiers.
