South Korea is one of the countries that implement conscription for its citizens, men aged 20-30 years who physically and mentally healthy. Each of these men have to undergo the program for 20 months. According to several (male) Korean friends (male), that period will be the most unpleasant pleasant time in their lives because it will cut their youth time, a period in which they normally use to have fun. Once obtaining a warrant for conscripts some will feel as if their world collapses for a moment. For example my friend Jae who always looks cheerful all of a sudden he got irritated when I asked when he would join Army Service. It seems that the topic is sensitive to the Korean guy who has not been on Army service.
What do they (Korean men) do in army service???
First of all they have to quit school or from work for a while. Then they are required to fill out a form where they wish to be placed, naval, air force or a soldier who helped American troops. But most of them end up as the army. Basic training they received about 4 weeks in training camp, after that they just transferred assigned to the unit they choose to continue with the remaining time before conscription to 20 months ahead.
Army Service be one important factor why the sense of brotherhood among the Korean guy is very close and tight. In addition, there is interesting thing that I gain about army service. One of simple way to distinguish whether a guy that has or has not been in army service is by observing their body shape. If someone has OK/good/awesome body (strapping, athletic, good arm) I can guess that he had joined army service. If his body is not OK, I will guess that he hasn't joined army service yet, hehe. exception for Korean actors, has or hasn't joined army service they have good body shape like won Bin on the picture below. Kyakya,,, I love Won Bin.
