JYJ's Junsu's comment has earned backlash.
On the 10th, Junsu held his last concert before his military enlistment in February next year, called '2016 XIA Ballad & Musical Concert with Orchestra Vol. 5'. During the concert, he talked about his enlistment, and said, "It felt a bit ironic to wear a military outfit for my 'Tears of Heaven' musical. This 5th ballad & musical concert is my last concert before I enlist. I think of it as having a short break time. I think it's something that every Korean man has to do, and I'll come back healthily. I want to give back all the love I've received after I've served."
While he meant only to comfort his fans on leaving, others were not too happy that he described military service as 'a break', especially because Junsu is going as a PR member of the conscripted policemen. This means he will face less hard work than those in active duty, and people were not amused by the comment.
What do you think of the situation?

Okay like why you gotta be so negative? Thinking of it in such twisted ways is your own fault, he literally said nothing wrong. He is taking a break form his actual career to do what he believes is every man in South Korea's duty. Good for him. There are people who try to make up pettie reasons to not enlist, there are those who try to run from it. And btw netz saying he has a "easier" task just dissed all conscripted policemen who are very important or else they wouldn't even be a part of the services one could enlist it. Think before you speak and you'll appear less stupid.

Some artists just take a "break" from their music, and Junsu is too, but during his break, he will be doing his military service. If you want to hate on him, you'll interpret "break" as the military service, if you're not a hater, you'll interpret "break" about his music.

Most netizens who cry wolf are bored housewives in their 40s or 50s ... their opinions should not matter in the slightest, so the less attention you pay to them, the better.

It's ridiculous that people are hating on him for saying that he's taking some time to rest... Like boo you don't have to do all the shit he has to do to please the fans and work... He's been through so much, it's hard enough to be doing what he's doing, the military duty is important, but trust me, being in the military is probably easier than being an idol/artist...

leave it to the korean reporters to totally misinterpret and piece of information they are given. it's like playing broken telephone. Junsu actually meant that he was taking a break from his music career to carry out his 2 year military services. not that he was taking an actual "break". why do they love to do this all the time? so dramatic. these reporters always wanting to blow things out of proportion. they should've become screenplay writers instead.

Not my first connotation, though, I understand what he means. Perhaps he will be less active in military than his regular work
