Ok Taecyeon

Another "beastly idol," Taecyeon of 2PM returned from the military last May 16, 2019. Fans were floored to see the singer-actor all bulked up, earning him the nickname "Captain Korea." In fact, he led a platoon while he was serving the army.

Soon enough, he starred in "The Game: Towards Zero" in 2020 and was marked as his first drama following "Save Me" before enlisting in 2017.

Taecyeon then played as the villain Jang Han Seok in tvN's megahit crime-comedy drama "Vincenzo," one of Taecyeon's iconic roles.

In 2021, he portrayed the role of Ra Yi Eon in the historical-romance series "Secret Royal Inspector & Joy," alongside Kim Hye Yoon.

Park Hyung Sik

Park Hyung Sik made fans drool over him with his muscular physique as he got discharged from the military on January 4.

Then, the Wooga Squad member starred in the thriller K-drama "Happiness" as Jung Yi Hyun, a fearless and smart detective who has romantic feelings for Yoon Sae Bom (Han Hyo Joo).

The 30-year-old actor also co-starred with the gorgeous actress Han So Hee in the romance drama "Soundtrack#1".

EXO D.O.

EXO member and "100 Days My Prince" star Doh Kyungsoo (prominently known as D.O.) enlisted from the military on July 1, 2019. He finished his mandatory service last January 25. His fans were impressed by his transformation as he seemed bulked up after serving the army.

Then, D.O. excitedly returned to his music activities with his group, and also released his first solo mini-album "Empathy" in July.

The "It's Okay, That's Love" star also made a comeback as an actor and bagged two projects this year.
