The military has never been a highly repected organization in Korea since Joseon period. I can see some of the attitudes that brought down the previous dynasty is surfacing up again.
Its real embarrassing when the cultural mindset that brought us to our current predictament is once again on rise. You think our people would have learned from history, but we haven't. I call this stupidity.
If we can't find a way to respect our own military. Than we should start importing cultural attitudes from other cultures, especially Turkey.
To be fair though, some expats in Korea are equally stupid.

What evidence do you have to support this? Here, I'll help you. I'll give you some images (of the powerful Korean marines in action) and you can say that they are Japanese soldiers picking on freedom-loving Koreans.

The Korean Marines in Viet Nam were first rate troops. As an American friend who served with the US Marines in Viet Nam said they were some of the toughest people he had ever met.
