The military service judgment test to determine whether to enlist in active duty has begun at once.

It is held until the end of November, and the number of subjects for physical examination reaches 260,000.

From this year on, the different criteria will be noticeable.

The standards for disposition for military service based on educational background have been abolished, making it possible for high school dropouts to enroll in active duty.

Based on this criterion, the number of people who are judged active duty is expected to increase by about 2,500 compared to the previous year.

Active duty camping is possible even with tattoos on the whole body, and the weight standard has also been changed, so the overweight standard from 102 kg for a height of 175 cm has been adjusted to 108 kg.

On the other hand, the underweight went down from 52kg to 48kg.

The overall standard of vision, etc., has gradually eased, but it seems to take into account the lack of hospital resources in addition to equity.

The Military Manpower Administration announced that it will conduct judgment tests this year by reinforcing strict distance and quarantine guidelines in consideration of the Corona 19 situation.

However, due to the low birth rate, difficulties in supply and demand for military service resources are expected as the years go by, and the government’s concerns are expected to continue.
