Kim Youngdae to join NCT's Doyoung in the 12th Infantry Division after passing army band audition

Actor Kim Youngdae has officially been selected to join the Republic of Korea Army's military band.

If you missed the news, he enlisted as an active-duty soldier back on April 20 and completed his basic military training at the Korea Army Training Center. Right after finishing the training, he took the army band selection test at the end of June, and he successfully passed. Now, he has been assigned to his official post, serving as a member of the 12th Infantry Division's military band. 

What makes this news even more interesting is that the 12th Infantry Division is the exact same place where NCT's Doyoung is currently serving as a drill instructor. Since they are both '96-liners, fans are so excited to see them ending up in the same division together. 

Looking back at his career, he made his official debut in 2017 through a web drama 'Drama Special: The Expiration Date of You and Me' before shooting to fame and gaining massive recognition through hit dramas like 'Extraordinary You' and 'The Penthouse.' He stayed incredibly busy with back-to-back projects all through last year and early this year before finally heading to the army. For those who are counting down the days until his return, Kim Youngdae is scheduled to be discharged in October next year.
