South Korea's constitution stipulates that as long as young people reach the age of 20, they must enter the military for military service. Whether it is the son of the president or the son of a civilian, as long as he is a South Korean citizen, he must enter the military for military service. If you do not perform military service, the consequences will be very serious. The son of a senior president will not only ruin his own future, but also affect his father. If it is the son of a commoner, then if you want to be admitted to the civil service later, no matter how good your grades are, it will not be possible!
Generally speaking, most South Koreans, at the age of military service, will enter the military and fulfill their obligations. However, some people with relatively high births do not want to enter the military for military service. In order to avoid military service, many people use their family connections. However, as long as it is exposed, the consequences will be very serious. For example, the protagonist Liu Chengjun today is because in order to avoid military service, he carried out a series of blind operations, which eventually led to his own current troubles!
According to reports: According to the judicial circles on the 30th, the Administrative 5th Division of the Seoul Administrative Court will hold its first trial on June 3 to hear the administrative lawsuit filed by Korean-American singer Liu Seung-joon (English name Steve Liu) against the refusal of the South Korean Consulate General in Los Angeles. The court will hear the arguments of both parties before making a trial plan. Unlike criminal proceedings, administrative proceedings can be heard in the absence of a party, and Liu Chengjun's defense lawyer will appear as an agent litigant. From this, we can know that Liu Chengjun's current situation is not very good!
It is understood that Liu Chengjun previously became a U.S. citizen to avoid military service, and was restricted from entering the country by the Ministry of Justice in 2002. He has since been denied an application to the Government of South Korea for a Compatriot Visa (F-4), citing this as an administrative lawsuit filed in court in 2015. Although the Supreme Court (Supreme Court) ruled in its final judgment in March last year that the visa refusal procedure of the Consulate General in Los Angeles was illegal, the consulate still refused to apply for a visa, so Liu Chengjun filed another administrative lawsuit. According to the latest survey, 40% of young people in South Korea have agreed to conscription!
