ASTRO’s Cha Eun Woo gets caught by senior soldier for hiding THIS during military meal: ‘What is in your pockets?’
Cha Eun Woo’s military moments are being talked about online and this one from during his mealtime at the cafeteria is the newest addition to a series of funny events.
Anecdotes from Cha Eun Woo’s military time are all the talk in the Korean communities these days. According to a recent post from an online user, the singer and actor was caught by a fellow soldier during his training days, only to be demanded to see what was in his uniform's pockets. A startled but righteous Cha Eun Woo did not get intimidated by the situation and was honest as well as upfront about pocketing the plums that were provided during the meal. Assuming they were unripe and needed more time to get to their edible stage, he was carrying it with him only to be called out by the instructor, who informed them that they were, in fact, ready to be consumed. It was followed by a base-wide announcement, informing all military trainees of the state of the plums.

Cha Eun Woo: I was going to take them and eat them when they are ripe.
Instructor: Those plums can be eaten right now.

Broadcasting room: Ah Ah! (Mic check) Among the fruits prepared today, the plums may look unripe and green, but they are ripe, so they can be eaten right away.”
