Although most of korean people obey their law and order, there are some events happening illegally because of the special situation of Korea. One of them is about Korea military service. In Korea, every man must join the army and do their duty roughly for 2years. This is because Korea is divided into two countries and we are still in war. Eventhough the military law is quite strict, some of people try to avoid the duty illegally. They offer a medical doctor some money to get their fake medical opnion, because if they are regarded as a disabled, they can be exempted from millitary service. For an example, lately, a famous singer was prosecuted for avoiding the military service by faking his dental illness. Since Korean army was established, this has been a big problem all the time.
In my opnion, to be honest, I have no alternative to solve the military problem but no one wants to be forced to join the army so if it is really necessary, this should be fair to all men.
I know that singer,thinking this situation is very common in many countries, china too. I avoid it because my eyes problem..it's the most easy way...
ReplyDeleteFaking a dental illness to get out of military service for two whole years? heh hee... That's kind of funny. Surely he could have thought of a more convincing excuse.
ReplyDeleteHave you done your military service yet? And what do you actually have to do during that time - is there much / any choice?
