It turns out that they are the same age, born in 1996, with Doyoung enlisting in December 2025 and Kim Young Dae in April 2026.

Fans of both celebrities agreed that they would’ve never seen them together like if it weren’t for the military.

A two-shot that we’d never be able to see unless it’s the military.

I only heard that Kim Young Dae was in the 12th division, and I can’t believe I saw these two together.

It’s so crazy to see Doyoung and Kim Young Dae together…and Kim Young Dae is so sweet. I asked for a selfie, and even though his manager said no, he said ‘Of course’ and took a selfie for me.
