But as those roles that significant? And wouldn't it make more drama when those "easy" office roles only go to woman? Maybe if you 50/50 and claim "look you have a chance to not go to military" but idk how much office roles exist :v

Those roles are definitely significant, at very least in air force. The idea behind air force is basically "one guy flies the plane, hundred other supports that". Generally, military in SK is completely different from other countries since you have 80% of all men there. No way you can expect a guy weighing 120kg to do all those typical military stuff 😂

And yes, drama is inevitable, but it would at very least make military experience a bit more relatable. I don't expect it to increase in the long term. Short term though, oh dear.
