Actor Cha Seo-won reported the news of Uhm Hyun-kyung's premarital pregnancy in addition to the fact that he was dating Eom Hyun-kyung while serving in the military. It is not usually difficult to carry out both military duty and childcare while on active duty. For this reason, the government is implementing a system that transfers active duty soldiers with children to full-time reserve service. Singers Jang Bum-joon and Chen, the fathers of the child, served as full-time reservists through this system.
Singer Jang Beom-jun married actress Song Seung-ah in April 2014, and in July of that year, they had their first daughter. He was originally scheduled to enlist in early 2014, but Song Seung-ah was pregnant and delayed enlistment to prepare for the wedding.
Jang Bum-Jun, a father of a daughter, was in a situation where he had to fulfill his military service obligations. Jang Beom-jun started his military service in May 2017 as a full-time reserve and was able to play the role of a father and a father. In September 2017, not long after enlisting, their second son was born. Jang Bum-jun was a full-time reserve and could not complete his military service. He was discharged from the army with 5 months left before being discharged due to knee ligament rupture.
EXO's Chen, who suddenly announced the news of his marriage and second generation, also served as a full-time reserve. Chen married his non-celebrity girlfriend in January 2020, and after three months, in April, he had a daughter.
At the time, Chen, who was unwritten, had to enlist with a beautiful daughter. He entered the Army Training Center in October 2020, completed basic military training, and began service as a full-time reserve in the 56th Infantry Division. During his alternative service, Chen once again delivered 'good news'. In November 2020, he revealed that his wife was pregnant with their second child, and their second daughter was born in January 2021 while Chen was serving in the military.
Actor Sung Joon enlisted as an active duty soldier, but switched to a full-time reserve role and finished his military service. Sung Joon enlisted in the army in December 2018, but belatedly revealed that he got married in February 2020 and has a child. He found out about his girlfriend's pregnancy before enlisting and enlisted after registering their marriage. Seongjun, who enlisted as an active duty soldier, finished his military service as a full-time reserve.
Interest is also focused on whether Cha Seo-won, who recently revealed her lover's pregnancy and plans to marry, will complete her military service as an active duty soldier. Cha Seo-won, who enlisted in active duty in November last year, recently revealed that he is in a relationship with Eom Hyun-kyung and plans to have a wedding after being discharged. The reason he revealed his marriage plan while serving in the military is because Uhm Hyun-kyung is pregnant. If Cha Seo-won gets a child while his military service period is left, he may switch to full-time reserve service and play the role of a father and a father.
According to the Military Service Act, married active duty soldiers with children before enlistment and married active duty soldiers who gave birth to a child while serving in the military can be transferred to the full-time reserve service to guarantee childrearing conditions. They are transferred to the reserve service according to the selection criteria for full-time reserve service as determined by the Commissioner of the Military Manpower Administration, and serve in a call-up unit in an area where they can commute from their place of residence.
