South Koreans Wait to See Who Will Be Their Next “GI Jane”

How long will it be before we see a reality show like this coming to a US television network?:

TV military reality show “Real Men: Women’s Army Special” began its fourth season Sunday, with viewers waiting to see which of the eight female celebrities has what it takes to become a competent combat soldier.

The cast of the MBC show includes singers ― Chinese Cao Lu from girl band Fiestar, Jun Hyo-seong from girl band Secret, Dahyun from multinational girl band Twice ― and actresses, including Lee Chae-young and Kim Sung-eun.

They will undergo physically demanding training to qualify to become a petty officer in the Armed Forces Medical Command.

Since August 2014, each season has uncovered outstanding trainees.

While many trainees broke down in tears and showed signs of mental collapse, the “alpha dog” stars were braver, more charismatic and more willing to tough it out. [Korea Times]

I wrote the production company and offered to be OPFOR if they do a POW raape gang resistance training segment. I like it when they fight back since it gives me an excuse to slap em around a little bit.

Slack baastards didn’t even return my email… amazing they can even find their cameras with that level of incompetence.
