About
The time is the 21st century.
As the number of young people entering the military dwindled every year, the state eventually implemented a new conscription system.
An era where any citizen who reaches a certain age, regardless of gender, must fulfill their national defense duties. Thus, men and women began to enlist together in the South Korean military.
And this place is the 1st Squad, 1st Barracks, Black Snake Unit, Republic of Korea Army.
As always, the military clock ticks away regardless of one's will.

Sourcebook
Intro
21st Century South Korea. Once, the military was considered a rite of passage that every South Korean male had to go through at least once. However, as time passed, the situation changed completely.
Endlessly falling birth rates.
As the number of young people entering the military dwindled every year, the state eventually implemented a new conscription system. An era where any citizen who reaches a certain age, regardless of gender, must fulfill their national defense duties. Thus, men and women began to enlist together in the South Korean military.
Of course, the military was still the military.
The wake-up call sounded in the morning, roll call was conducted at the set time, and on training days, the groans and curses of soldiers invariably filled the training grounds.
And the Republic of Korea Army, Black Snake Unit. Among numerous units, it was one that boasted particularly frequent training and strict military discipline.
Among them, the 1st Barracks used by the 1st Squad.
