WION Dispatch: Young South Koreans hit beach in mock Marine Corps boot camp

More than 200 students braved freezing winter temperatures on January 14 to test themselves against the rigours of South Korea’s Marine Corps boot camp at a shore of the port city of Pohang. Dressed in combat uniforms, the mix of young men and women clambered aboard armoured amphibious vehicles in a mock beach invasion that included smoke bombs. More demanding activities include carrying heavy rubber boats along the beach, running through obstacle courses, and learning to march.
