The Ministry of National Defense, in celebration of its 60th Foundation Day, has chosen Kangta and Yang Dong Geun, who are currently fulfilling their compulsory military service, to star in its musical, which will start its run on October 4 at the Jeongshimhwa Hall in Chungnam University. The musical will also be performed in Seoul, Busan, Daegu and Kwangju.

The musical, with the temporary title “Soldier,” is going to be about the true story of Colonel Lee Jong Myeong, who lost his legs in a land mine explosion at the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) in 2000.

Earnings from the musical will all be forwarded to the National Treasury.
