What? I assumed he was finished with his military service by now. Has he been streaming lately?

i dont know what conscription is like in other countries that have it, but in korea there is almost no benefit to going to the military from a personal standpoint. the best way you could spin it is like some have pointed out; living through a structured, highly disciplined lifestyle thats will give you a tough experience in various ways that you wont find in normal life. whether this experience is worth sacrificing what was normally 2 years of your life? 99% of korean men would disagree.
you dont get any formal education during your time in the military that can typically be put to use in the normal world. you get paid money no different to what you would make working part time in society. you dont get any perks after youve been discharged either. youre back in society exactly where you left off, except youre 2 years older. youve literally just given 2 years of your life for the service of the country with no material benefit for yourself. only if you want to have a military career does those 2 years amount to anything meaningful.
if you look at conscription from a wider perspective however, the benefit of having a large army that doesnt have a war they have to be at is the country can mobilise the soldiers for public service reasons. a low cost, highly efficient workforce that can assist with any government task is very handy and i personally think this benefit is very underrated. korea has exploited this many times and if conscription is no longer a thing the loss of this benefit is something that makes me sad. tbh its probably the second biggest reason why the korean government wont remove conscription. if you look at the likelihood of warfare commencing with north korea again, you could even argue that its the biggest reason. Can't agree more, fuck military. That shit ruined my early 20s cause I spent my time hiding like a rat and couldn't enjoy the life because constantly lived with fear that eventually I need to do that. Luckily I skipped it, this summer's birthday is the time when my age will be too high so they can't force me to go and do that useless piece of shit. dude thats amazing, im srsly happy for you, theres nothing worse in life than doing shit u're forced to. the only reason to go to the military that makes some sense is the fact that they teach you how to manage weapons, that is kinda useful in the case of a revolution, other than that, mandatory military is non sense to freedom.
This is standing ovation material, nothing less

The crowd erupts into a ”USA! USA!” chant as the bald eagles form a star-sprangled banner in the sky

The second the ASL15 champ lifts the trophy, all lights will go out, then back on - and Flash will be behind him, cosplaying as the Vulture pilot.
And scene.
