10:25 am
if you go to the military service and then it will actually go kind of, it will be a big deal for korean pop music industry. it goes, game the, you know, lots of popularity, of course, the world. and they're also had to, you know, they're not, you know, lots of came, you know, which the sustain, but they're kind of pockets. no, i think it will make lots of the nervous, you know, the concern about this kind of sense of yes, but in my opinion, you know that they will get, go there in the pull their own reputation. that means the employee out, you know, the way saw more citizens and this month there wasn't, you know, give in on the rather, you know,
10:26 am
some kind of another beginning. what i mean after that it will be the turn, not as a team, but as an individual. i mean, i guess 2 to 3 years. i mean they're talking about 2025 and certainly a long time in the world of popular culture. and also bts is obviously one of the biggest symbols of south caresoft power. you know, they've met with the us president and the u. n. so what does this amount mean more broadly for the nation? so mostly athletes can the magician or any salivary who can come to with their kind of national would again, they're kind of a junction of this month and in that do service. but his case causes lots of controversial arguments moving around a month because the biggest room so they're kind of a cultural industry and then pop coach or something. so some controversy, you know,
