Actor Park Bo-gum, who is serving in the Navy, is drawing attention by giving advice to his junior soldiers for a successful military life.
According to Kookbang Ilbo, Sergeant Park Bo-gum, who works at the Public Relations Department of the Navy’s military band, served as an instructor for the “Exemplary Leader Soldier Success Story Education” at the Naval Education Command Recruit Training Battalion Training Center in Jinhae-gu, Changwon-si, Gyeongsangnam-do on February 10th.
The “Exemplary Leader Soldier Success Story Education” was introduced in May 2018 as an event in which trainees who are about to complete basic military education solve questions about military life through advice from senior soldiers.
Sergeant Park, who joined the army in August 2020 and will be discharged on April 30th, said, “I send my support to all of you who have completed the six-week training safely and are dignified on the mission to protect the territorial sea. We should become a motivation and successor to each other as well as a strength and support for each other. For this purpose, we need to participate in the creation of a healthy barracks culture by paying attention to every word we say to our comrades next to us.”
Sergeant Park advised, “In order to become a fruitful military life, you should not neglect to train your body and mind and make efforts to improve your intelligence by utilizing personal maintenance time given after work. It would be good to participate in various gatherings and religious activities when you are tired.”
He also shared his wish, “Don’t forget that military service is a precious time for each individual’s development, and I hope that you can achieve what you promised with a positive mindset and good health.”
The Navy explained, “Sergeant Park gave this lecture as he has been experiencing an exemplary military life in which he takes care of his juniors with a spirit of initiative.”
Meanwhile, Sergeant Park passed the practical test of the National Technical Qualification Examination to be a skilled technician (barber) in December last year.
