What Happened Last Time?
Company 2 was suddenly assigned to play the opposing force in the Hoguk Training exercise. Veteran sergeants Kang Chan Seok (Lee Jung Hyun) and Choi Byeong Nam (Kim Hee Soo), who postponed their discharge to help their juniors, joined the unit. They clashed with the Marine Corps from their very first meeting.
What the New Stills Reveal?
The new images show Company 2 training in rugged mountain terrain, and a few moments stand out:
- Jo Baek Ho (Oh Dae Hwan) looks unusually tense. He normally encourages his fellow soldiers with a smile, so something has clearly upset him.
- Kang Chan Seok and Choi Byeong Nam face the Marines head-on, and neither side looks ready to back down.
- Moon Bit Nari (Kim Yo Han) pushes through a dense trail with clenched teeth while Choi Il Gu (Nam Tae Woo) stays right beside him.
Cultural Clash Ahead
The production team teased that Company 2 and the Marine Corps will officially begin joint training in Episode 9. They will keep clashing over cultural differences that cannot easily be bridged, and unexpected situations will arise. Expect Jo Baek Ho’s leadership to emerge and the unit’s solidarity to grow stronger in moments of crisis.
The big question is whether the soldiers can finish the march without leaving anyone behind. Looking for more Korean drama news? Browse our latest entertainment coverage.
