Sergeant Lim was claimed to have encountered and passed through search parties six times, and when a Defense Ministry spokesperson answered with "that could happen, so we cornered him," it became controversial. At first, people reacted with "isn't he lying to reduce his sentence?" because it was so absurd, but it was confirmed as fact, and he was reportedly sent out with excuses like "I was carrying friend-or-foe identification tape" and "I forgot the password." Even Sergeant Lim himself after desertion was

Most people thought Sergeant Im tricked the search team through acting, which is why the military got absolutely roasted
Β
But the truth is all 6 search units that encountered him knew it was Im because they were running around with rifles without proper squad formations
Β
Turns out the suspect had already opened fire before, so they just avoided provocation and let him go
Β
Then they immediately reported it to command and cornered him

Whether it's soldiers or civilians, if live rounds aren't authorized everyone's basically defenseless. What were they thinking running that operation?
wait so he was just bad at acting the whole time? that explains everything honestly
this is hilarious but also kinda mean lol, let the man live
no because i rewatched the scene and you're RIGHT he was so stiff π
If they'd actually caught him there and died for it, you'd just be treated like someone's dead son. They played it smart.
Did the people criticizing not think, or are they just fine with other people dying since it's not their own neck on the line? Which is it?
"Soldiers are trained to be disposable state property that dies without question when the nation needs it"
Actually got prison time for this
This is insane... a 2-star general did this???
The state (x) me (o)
Pretty low IQ move
Wasn't this suspected back then too? Even if they knew, they had to act like they didn'tβif they tried to grab him he would've shot. But the problem is if Sergeant Im had actively tried to shoot, the death rate would've been super high. The guys on scene just improvised. The operation wasn't literally 'pretend to believe his disguise'βthat doesn't make sense. Using search personnel as human shields is a separate thing to criticize the military over. We've got reservists opening fire on complete strangers in training exercises, so why would we assume an armed deserter who already opened fire once wouldn't actually shoot?
Facts they handled it right lol what else can you do against an armed guy with no way to subdue him
Wild how they basically told unarmed guys to apprehend someone who deserted with a loaded rifle
finally someone said it! his delivery in that one episode had me cringing so hard
Think about itβupper brass are psycho telling people to grab an armed deserter with no ammo to give them
LMAOOO not sergeant im getting exposed like this π i always thought something was off
okay but he's charming anyway so who cares about the acting tbh
that caption made me laugh harder than the actual image ngl π
