Kim Bum is officially back from the military! On March 13, King Kong by Starship announced, “Kim Bum completed his military service as a public service worker earlier this morning.” The actor enlisted in the military in April 2018, and due to health reasons, he fulfilled his mandatory military service as a public service worker after completing his basic training. He is currently in talks to make his return to the small screen in the upcoming tvN fantasy drama “The Tale of Gumiho”, which will star Lee Dong Wook and Jo Bo Ah. Public service worker is an alternative form of military service. Kim Bum joins the likes of Lee Min Ho, Lee Joon, Seulong and Big Bang’s T.O.P, who are serving as such due to personal reasons. Kim Bum’s agency added that he ‘has been receiving continual treatment since his early 20s due to a hereditary illness. In order to recover, he’s put in a lot of effort towards caring for his health through medication and exercising, but in the end, he was assigned to be a public service worker.’ Congratulations to Kim Bum on successfully completing his service!
