1. [+1,203, -38] So can you just line up late then if you don't want to serve?

2. [+1,058, -15] How lucky ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

3. [+48, -3] Not sure how popular he is in Korea but he's superstar level over in Thailand. Super popular.

4. [+41, -3] Thailand's system is set up so that if there are a lot of volunteers, the rest of the people in life are automatically exempt. Even if you did pick a red ticket, you can pass it on to someone else. Thailand has great benefits for soldiers and are paid better than most odd jobs around the country so some even pay for red tickets so they can serve instead.

5. [+41, -4] ㅋㅋㅋ I guess this is what they did with Nichkhun to keep him from serving. Purposely didn't put him in line.

6. [+27, -4] Just fyi, there are a lot of people who volunteer to serve because soldiers are paid about the same as an entry level job after college. The rates are usually 70% black balls, 30% red balls but it varies by district since a lot of the poorer areas have a lot more serving for the income. There are some towns where everyone serves too.

7. [+20, -4] What the ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ then the system sucks for the people in the front of the line ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

8. [+13, -0] Man I kept seeing Bambam in the live search rankings so I thought Momoland released a follow up to 'Bboom Bboom' titled 'Bam Bam' but it was a Got7 member's name
