Korea’s Nonsan military camp located in South Chungcheong Province posted a pic of Kim Nam Gil yesterday. The Bad Boy/Guy actor entered training camp last week as part of his two-year mandatory military duty. I miss you!!!
Check out Kim’s photo spread for Allure (Korea) magazine below.

I am so ‘EFFIN mad at Korea for forcing Kim Nam Gil, 29, to enlist in the military at this time. KNG was at the tail end of filming Bad Guy when the military dropped the bomb that he must report to active duty on July 15th. SBS tried to get an extension to wrap up shooting but Korea quickly shot down the request. So now, instead of the promised 20 episodes the show will only have 17 episodes. This totally sucks because now the drama’s ending will more than likely be wack. As you can tell I really love this drama.
At any rate, KNG reported for duty at Nonsan training camp in South Chungcheong Province on Thursday afternoon. It’s estimated some 300 local and overseas fans from China, Japan, Indonesia, Taiwan, etc came to say their last goodbyes…at least for the next two years.
Btw…

Rain is due to enlist in the army this September. The actor/singer is currently filming the highly-anticipated kdrama Domangja s1 (aka Fugitive / Plan B) , co-starring Lee Na-young, Lee Jung-jin, Kong Hyung-jin, Daniel Henney, Eric Tsang, Takenaka Naoto and Uehara Takako of jpop idol group Speed.







Jang Dong Gun and Go So Young, both of whom are 38 years old, tied the knot on May 2nd at the Shilla Hotel in S. Korea. The couple will stay at the $8,000/per night presidential suite then head off to vacy in Bali, Indonesia. Pretty sweet.
More good news! The newlywed couple is expecting a baby later this year.

Actor Kim Nam-gil recently visited Sumatra Island, Indonesia to help with the earthquake relief efforts. As you may recall Indonesia was hit with a 7.6 magnitude earthquake and tsunami in September 2009. Nam-gil volunteers for PLAN KOREA, an international children’s charity.

Good news for all you Kim Man-gil fans. Nam-gil has signed on to star in Bad Guy [나쁜남자], a story about a man’s quest to achieve a secret ambition. The kdrama is slated to premiere this year. I’ll keep you posted folks.
