The time is ticking faster and i bet Hyun Bin and his fans counting the days so excitedly. Finally just 20 days left before the private Kim Tae Pyung (Hyun Bin’s real name) discharged from military duty on December 6.

And with pleasure i just want to share this pleasure, Hyun Bin’s latest photos. These photos were taken from military event that held on November 14th when Hyun Bin trusted to became the host the 23rd Marine Corps Music Concert. That night he said even has 20 days left, but for him it still feels a long time.

As always, he looked dashing wore military uniform, but i don’t like his military haircut that night, frankly i think he’s little bit weird with that haircut, i prefer the haircut on his first day entered the military about two years ago.

Reportedly, before officially discharged on December 6th, Hyun Bin takes some day-off for 8 days start from today (November 15th).
He uses the vacation to meet the people he loves, family and friends, and of course for preparing his return as an actor, especially his dealings with his new agency.

Due to his popularity that never fade even physically he is on military, so many people anticipating his comeback, including me..ooh…time really flies, and i like it. Actually i am really happy these days because my two favorite actors, Kang Dong Won already discharged (on November 12) and (surprisingly) he has younger post-military appearance, and then this, just with a wink (only a couple more weeks) Hyun Bin also will be back. yay! I can’t wait for D-day…

Omo!!! actually i’ve been sinking on my works for these days, but suddenly i was distracted when seeing  these pictures of Hyun Bin! I can’t take off my eyes of this dashing private, and i can’t get back concentrate on my works until i post and share this just because i miss him…

This morning (September 28th), Hyun Bin oops..i mean the most charming soldier in the world, Kim Tae Pyung, was involved  in military ceremony at Battle of Yongsan Memorial Plaza, Seoul.

On ceremony that was attended by lots of military leaders from navy, Hyun Bin must be proud since he had the task as the flag raiser. While running his duty, although he looks so stiff and serious in military uniform, Hyun Bin can’t hide his charm as the star, just so stunning.

Actually, in less than three more months his duty will be completed.  Oh, December, please come fast… everybody misses him…

Frankly i didn’t like myself when i posted this article, seriously..i felt like a stalker, peeking others’s personal life. Actually i just want to share this information, Hyun Bin (Private Kim Tae Pyung) recieved 10 days and 9 nights vacation due to his corporal promotion on Marine Corps. His holiday started on May 5th, yeah…our beloved private is free like bird for a while…

So just in case if you meet someone like him in the next 9 days at someplace in Seoul you will not be confused, maybe that person wasn’t his doppelganger, but he might be the real Hyun Bin.

On first day, he was seen  hanging out with his friends on Apgujeong, Seoul. That night he met his acting mentor, Kang Gun Taek, i bet he already miss his job, acting. and i know he just wanted to blend, but he looked cool even he was  just wearing the casual outfit and cap, and I just realized about his long legs..damn! i miss him…

Actually, i’m not his fans, but of course he is on my most-awaited-actors-back-from-military list,  he will be officially discharged on December. His agency annouced that he will just spend his free times with his friends and beloved family, he doesn’t have particular job schedule due to his status on military.

Hyun Bin or Kim Tae Pyung, our celebrity soldier (oops..sorry if i’m too frank, because i think marines corps has been too much exploiting his popularity, can’t they let him as ordinary soldier???) has new duty as Korean defense ambassador.  For his first task he is scheduled to visit Indonesia. He will be in Indonesia for 2 nights and 3 days, starts on October 5th until October 7th. Along with his fellow soldiers ,today (October 4th) he left for Indonesia from Incheon International Airport.

Indonesian government who invites Hyun Bin personally to attentd the celebration of army force anyversary on October 5th. then as schedule, on October 6th he will meet Indonesian marine corps. Hyun Bin is quite known by the Indonesian public through his popular dramas (Secret Garden and My Name is Kim Sam Soon) and TV ads. Both Indonesian army force and Korean army force are smart enough to harness it, make the military look charming.

Hyun bin to Indonesia also took a special mission, as part of negotiation to sell submarines and other military equipment to the Indonesian military and also to advance training models of Korea Aerospace Industries T-50 Golden Eagle multirole fighter jets . Okay, it turns out that it is part of the military business, i knew it. But why they send Hyun Bin? Is there no real soldier to cover this 1 billion deal matter?:?

Unlike  the other actors, who seemed to “disappear” while in the military, Hyun Bin still “exists” on public. I think not only as an actor, as a soldier he also has a lot of tasks. As a spokerphone, MC, athlete, because lately (on his birthday, September 25th) he’s chosen to participate on marathon event, and now he becomes the military lobbyists?

Oh yeah, I almost forget, happy belated birthday, Hyun Bin-ssi, always be safe on military!

After having 5 days and 4 nights holiday, Hyun Bin (Kim Tae Pyung) has to be back to his duties in marine corp. on April 29th, he and a bunch of his mates left for Baengnyeong Island with military ships. He looks thinner and tanned.
Good bye, good luck, and be safe Hyun Bin-ssi! see you again on December 6th,2012.

Finally, on April 18th South Korean Marine Corps official decided that Hyun Bin (Kim Tae Pyung) who serves as a combat soldier will be placed in the country border area.

Hyun Bin will end his basic training on April 22nd, then he would be given 5 days off . After the 5 days rest he will immediately be placed in the western border area, Baeknyeong Island. So he will begin his official duties on Baeknyeong around April 28th.

Marine corps proved their claim that there is no special treatment for celebrities like Hyun Bin, therefore they put Hyun Bin on a pretty dangerous area. Seeing his records during basic training, I’m sure he is able to carry on these dangerous duties. And now, I just can say: “Take care, my dearest oppa!”

After four weeks doing basic training, finally Hyun Bin officially takes the duty. He was chosen as a public relations officer on Marine corps until December 6th, 2012. He’s already on his post since April 8.

Even he is a public figure and gets a perfect score on the shooting test. There is no special consideration for him to be placed on the Public Relations post, but I think the marine corps use his popularity to promote their corp. For me it’s okay as long as there’s always news updates about Hyun Bin.

But lately (after a lot of questions arise in public about his “safe” duty), Marine Corps announced that since April 14th  Hyun Bin will not only served as a public relations officer at his cozy post because he was given the other main task that is as general soldier who will be placed at the forefront (battlefront), maybe on dangerous spot.

Based on his records which almost perfect pretty pointless if he only served as a PR officer. Therefore Hyun Bin will primarily serve as a general soldier but also as a PR officer only when needed. I hope Hyun Bin does the best for any duties given to him, and more importantly, be safe oppa!

He entered to Marine corps with amazing result test, get 29 points out of 30. And now on marine corps, on gunnery training and test he managed shot 19 targets out of 20, and 10 targets out of 10 at night.

He got achievement as “First-Class Marksman” because his record over 90% point in the test, he’s so close to perfect.
Oh oppa..may I marry you???

You know Kim Tae Pyung? Oh yeah of course you know him, Its Hyun Bin’s real name. On March 25th, Marine corps through the official website released video containing Platoon 1137 members. Hyun Bin seemed to be there, he looked very serious.

He’s Kim Tae Pyung (that printed on his uniform). He’s no longer a celebrity there, just one of the trainees. He didn’t get any special treatment, but sometimes his charm makes him look different there, looks glowing for me … huhuhu .. Kim Tae Pyung-oppa, I already miss you! And I feel December 2012 it still very long to come…
