Holy chipmunks! Ex-H.O.T member Kangta has transformed into an ajusshi in front of our very eyes. The 29 year old singer has not even come out of the army yet and he looks like he is bursting out of his cheeks. What is going on?

Perhaps the thought of doing his military service has made him pack on the pounds for extra fuel. You know that food in the military is less than appetizing and they give you only 5 minutes to eat. So having said that, perhaps the pounds will melt off when he comes out in 2 years.

Let’s hope so.

Kangta held his last concert, “Eternity” at Yonsei University on March 29^th and 30th, 2008. He will be shipped off for his mandatory military service on April 1^st, 2008.

Actor Chun Jung Myung and NRG member No Yoo Min both started their 5 week military training today at Uijeongbu. Both were shy to show their buzz cuts to the eager cameramen and interested fans and we can see why. Hopefully we’ll see Chun Jung Myung 5 pounds heavier and No Yoo Min 15 pounds lighter in 2009. Good luck boys!
