Actor Kim Jae Wook has cropped his hair in preparation for his army enlistment!
On July 5th, Kim Jae Wook’s company wrote via Twitter, “Last photo before enlisting”. The attached photo sees Kim Jae Wook sporting a short cut and a navy-colored V-neck. Along with that came a photo of him standing in front of the training center.
The company also released a note Kim Jae Wook wrote. The note read:

“When you read this, I think I will have already enlisted at the training center. I think I have received an extreme amount of love till now. I will never forget that.
I almost think this is the best time to leave society. The celebrity world is a place where if you don’t pay attention at all times, you can ruin yourself. I think I have been losing a lot of important and sacred things as I continued living in that world.
While I’m in the army, I will slowly look back on my 20’s. The mind that might have been rotting without me knowing, I will come back more awakened with that mind. I will see you two years later as a healthy person. Everyone stay healthy.”

Netizens commented, “The short cut suits him”, “Be careful and come back soon!”, “I will wait for you”.
After five weeks of basic military training, Kim Jae Wook will officially begin his active service.

Kim Jae Wook to enlist in Military Service on July 5

Kim Jae Wook to enlist in Military Service on July 5

by: Rebby on Jul 4, 2011 

An official from Kim Jae Wook’s agency ESteem Models recently revealed that Kim Jae Wook would be enlisted in active military service on July 5, catching many by surprise as the announcement came with just a few days’ notice.

The official said "Kim Jae Wook will begin his active military service on July 5, he will return in two years' time in a healthy image, and will continue to participate in good productions to show us his cool acting, we hope for his fans’ support." He went on to inform "Kim Jae Wook wishes to have a quiet enlistment and the agency would not be disclosing the venue and time." However I bet the late news would not stop ardent fans from finding enough information to give him a send-off!
Kim Jae Wook recently starred in the musical "Hedwig" as a transgender singer "Hedwig". He left the team on June 19 to prepare for his impending enlistment. This was his first attempt at a musical but model-turned-actor Kim Jae Wook took to the stage with fine acting and sang with explosive power, winning acclaims that he’s in control of the stage.

Kim Jae Wook debuted as an actor through the 2007 popular MBC drama "The 1^st Shop of Coffee Prince" in which viewers fondly remembers him as the waffle guy. He also took leading roles in SBS drama "Bad Guy", KBS dramas "The Kingdom of the Winds", "Dalja’s Spring" and "Marry Me, Mary", of course not forgetting the monster-gay baker in the movie "Antique Bakery".
Let’s wish Kim Jae Wook all the best and await his return in two years’ time!

Kim Jae-wook currently in musical, prepares for army duty soon

by: javabeans on Jun 4, 2011 

 Here’s a look at Kim Jae-wook‘s fantastic transformation in drag for the Korean adaptation of Hedwig And the Angry Inch, the rock musical by John Cameron Mitchell and Stephen Trask. He’s been starring in this stage adaptation since May 14, and has announced that June 19 will be his last performance, due to his impending enlistment in the army.

Wah, not another one!
Kim Jae-wook is a 1983er, which means he’s 28 this year (and 29 in Korea), so totally due for the army. I don’t know why, but that took me by surprise. I thought he was younger than that, though he did debut post-college, and post-indie-band-days. His band Walrus self-produced an album earlier this year, and he had two big roles in the past drama year — wasted in Mary Stayed Out All Night and a breakout in Bad Guy.

Kim said of having to leave Hedwig early: “The moment I read and heard Hedwig‘s music, I trembled, and I had the feeling that I had to do this, so I feel regret [in having to leave the project]. Though I’m leaving to defend the country, I’ll do my best till the end.”

I guess we’ll just have to wait two years to see him back in dramaland. Sniff.
