However, according to the law revision in 06, Choi will now subject to military draft and if his "public interest work" (note: for those who cannot work in the regular army/navy/air force) starts he will be out of the ring for 26 months. A notice will soon be issued by Choi's agent. OSU!

Choi going into service for 26 months might be bad for the korean k-1 fans, but I think it would be very good for k-1 internationally.
But the korean army is not stupid enough to draft him or make him do menial work. It would be wasting a resource. I could see them making him fight under their supervision, as good publicity. customizing his civil service so to speak.
