The Korean Army has released a theme song performed by popular girl band the Wonder Girls. Army official said on Thursday (Jan 10) that the Army Song is part of their efforts to promote a young and friendly image to the public.

My take though, is that the video is trying to tell the young men that joining the army is a proud thing to do (girls will love ya). Korean men have to serve their mandatory military service for 24 months after the age of 18 (latest by 28) unless exemption is given under special circumstances.
