The Chief of Naval Education and Training (CNET) released some snippets of their recruits on their official website just this September 9th. And guess who we spotted? None other than our favorite Korean drama actor Park Bo Gum!
As seen in the photos posted on the website, the handsome actor wears a well-dressed uniform and mask while shooting with a group of Navy recruits. It was previously declared that Park Bo Gum reportedly enlisted at the Naval Education Command in Jinhae, Changwon, South Gyeongsang Province. Currently, the basic naval training is set to 5 weeks, including the enlistees, but the training period is said to be extended to 6 weeks starting August 31st. After completing six weeks of basic training, the actor will then serve as a cultural promotion soldier in the navy.
Yes! It has been more than a week since Park Bo Gum entered the training facility, and we just miss him already! He is now away from the showbiz spotlight, which makes his fans excited to get a glimpse of their favorite star, still doing great in the early stages of serving the country.
This is also considered as the perfect time for Park Bo Gum to focus on his development physically, mentally, and emotionally. He would be able to learn a lot of things in the military and gradually develop as a person.
We are all aware that currently, we are facing a health crisis due to the COVID19 pandemic and the number 1 priority is the health of the people. So to maintain the health precautions in South Korea, the newly enlisted soldiers are required to wear their face masks, as seen in the photos released. Nevertheless, our beloved Park Bo Gum is looking great and healthy wearing his military uniform as he starts his basic training.
Blossom Entertainment, the management agency of Park Bo Gum previously declared that his enlistment would be private in order to follow the social distancing guidelines. It's such a great thing that we were able to catch a glimpse of Park Bo Gum looking so great! Fans can't seem to hide their excitement and happiness.
