ROK Army Conscripts to Sing Pop Songs
I think more ROK Army soldiers will be ready to commit suicide if this plan goes through:
In a campaign to boost the morale of its conscripted soldiers, the Defense Ministry released four new rap and pop songs that were recorded by soldiers who are also famous performers.
Among the performers are Private Yoon Kye-sang, former member of boy band g.o.d., Private Hong Kyung-in, a former actor, and Private Park Kwang-hyun, a former actor and singer.
(…)
The Defense Ministry said it expects soldiers to sing these songs for fun, as well as during training. The ministry said it plans to produce CDs with the new songs and distribute them to military radio and television stations. Music videos are also planned.
An official who participated in the project said, “Using these songs will show the Army’s effort to improve its image.”
Only in Korea.
I really love Koreans who can think up this kind of wonderful idea. How are they so inovative?
