Nickhun shirtless

Oh my gosh, Thai citizen and Korean pop star from 2PM, Nickhun takes off his top for the Thai military. Lucky them. Nickhun, who turns 21 this year is up for the Thai draft.

While in Korea, all able men must serve, Thailand works a little differently, it works through a lottery system. Draw a red card, must serve for up to 2 years. Draw a black card, yeah, don’t have to!

Black or red for Nickhun, most likely black. If he draws red, he can always apply for an academic deferral. Young men who draw a red card and are currently studying at a university or busy working, they can apply for a 2 year deferral.

Depending on the district, if enough young men apply to be soldiers, the lottery is not needed. This was the case for “Golf” Pichaya Nitipaisalkul last year. Though he went and drew a red card, his services was not needed, enough young men applied as soldiers for his district. BKKdreamer has more on this.

Update: No military duty for Nickhun because enough people applied as soldiers in his district. No draft lottery was conducted. Soon after, Nickhun flew back to Korea to continue working on 2PM’s new album.

More of Nickhun shirtless, dude needs to get some sun. Still totally WOW! I like Nickhun, he presents himself well, his matter of speech, his choice of words, just exceptional. I remember watching an interview of Nickhun on 9 Entertain, I was blown away by his maturity and cuteness. I don’t know about his English or Korean, sometimes you can sound really cool in one language and totally stupid in another. Though I wasn’t a fan before, I became a fan after the interview.

NIckhun at the conscription place. If you understand thai, the two anchorpersons are freaking hilarious. First they made fun of the fat kid who went up for measurements before Nickhun.

Anchorwoman:”Oh…there is so much of him.”

Anchorman:”WOW, he is so fat.”–literally he said that.

Near the end, they start talking about Nickhun’s body. The anchorman said that if Nickhun is a 6-pack, he is a 1 bag (meaning he has a tummy). HAHA.

2PM in Thailand interview, in English. Nickhun kinda has a So-Cal accent, thank you lolagurl for the link
