Newly appointed NCOs...

sail out to sea to protect Korean waters.

What awaits them on the open waters?

Last week,

While training with heaving lines,

deck and weapons department NCOs imagine their new duties.

However, after repeated failures,

their last source of hope is...

Park Chan Ho.

Will he be able to honour the NCO Pride?

(Real Men 2: Navy NCO Special)

So far, no one has been successful.

Is this acceptable?

(No one succeeded so far.)

Next up, Recruit Park Chan Ho.

Petty Officer Park Chan Ho, Sir!

We look forward to your success.

This should be easy for him.

Petty Officer Park Chan Ho...

still has a pitcher's shoulder.

He is always so enthusiastic...

and competitive.

(He is also very meticulous.)

When it comes to throwing,

my colleagues expect a lot from me.

I paid attention and made bigger efforts to avoid disappointing them.

- Are you ready? - Yes, Sir!

You can achieve this easily.

Give it your best.

- Throw the line! - You can do it.

Throwing!

(25m is nothing to me.)

Throwing!

(He throws with a loud grunt.)

(Launching)

While watching from the back,

I felt like I could see 61, his jersey number, on him.

I imagined...

the idolised hero of my youth pitching in the same manner...

many years ago.

(The Korean Express launches the rope powerfully...)

(and it bounces off.)

(The line sailed across.)

(He fails with the slightest margin.)

(How can this be!)

(I can't believe this.)

That was so close.

(His colleagues are surprised.)

(Chan Ho is dispirited.)

- Can he try again, Sir? - The rope is too short.

(Should I allow it?)

Sure.

I put my guard down.

I failed to fully grasp the knot's...

centre of gravity, so it became tangled.

Once it is released, you have to feel it with your hand.

(Chan Ho's biggest fan announces every move.)

You have to feel it.

- Are you ready? - Yes, Sir!

Give it your best and make sure that it goes across. Understood?

Yes, Sir!

- Let's do it. - Let's do it.

Heaving!

Let's go!

It's there.

(Heave line!)

- It made it! - Almost!

(Really?)

(It hits the ground.)

(Oh my gosh!)

- The line got tangled. - I released it too early.

(Seething with frustration)

(Glancing)

Don't be so tense.

(As Chan Ho quietly gathers the line...)

The line unwinds itself as it flies.

(His comrades watch quietly.)

Can he make a third attempt, Sir?

- Allow him to try one more time. - Do you want to try again?

- I wish to try again, Sir. - Okay.

As I spent time with Petty Officer Park Chan Ho,

I realised that he gives himself no room for failure.

If he fails, it would eat him up the entire day.

I wanted him to succeed no matter what.

Here you go.

(Roman Princess volunteers to help.)

(With Sol Bi's help...)

Give him the longest rope.

(Chan Ho regains his composure.)

Adjust that end.

(Chan Ho regains his composure.)

You can do it.

Let's do it.

- You can do it. - I can do it.

(HIs colleagues support him.)

(Despite multiple failed attempts,)

(it's not over until it's over.)

- Are you ready? - Yes, Sir!

(It's the last opportunity for the Korean Express.)

Just as I threw a baseball at the stadium,

I had to take charge of my various responsibilities...

for the sake of camaraderie...

and demonstrating my patriotism.

- You can do it. - Here it goes.

(His determination is resolute.)

Let's do it.

(His colleagues cheer him up.)

(Like how he inspired his countrymen...)

Let's go!

(Korean Express delivers once again.)

(It's a blazing fastball.)

(Like a soaring bird,)

(the heaving line carries everyone's hope.)

(The third attempt by the Korean Express)

It went over!

- He did it! - It's successful!

(The line flew across...)

(and landed with precision.)

I did it!

(He did it!)

(It feels like an Independence Day celebration.)

(Chan Ho, the patriot, is born!)

(Chan Ho shows his upper cut ceremony.)

(Who knew he would do that in Navy?)

He did it!

He looks happier than when he won baseball games.

I felt really good succeeding on my third attempt.

If I gave up after the first attempt,

I would have stayed up all night thinking about it.

He talks a lot.

He always has his reasons.

However, he is always trustworthy.

If he failed, he would have stayed up all night trying.

(Prancing)

- He's excited. - Yes, he is.

He's so excited.

- He seems so happy. - He seems like he's floating.

- Lastly, Recruit Lee Tae Sung. - Yes, Sir!

- Are you ready? - Yes, Sir!

(He tries not to be ambitious.)

Heaving.

(He throws with simple motion.)

(It's a line driver.)

(He succeeds on his first attempt.)

(That was too easy.)

(My goodness!)

(How should we explain this?)

(If it could be done this easily,)

(how would Chan Ho feel?)

He threw it powerfully.

It was a direct high velocity line drive.

He did very well.

I felt embarrassingly sorry because...

Petty Officer Park Chan Ho seemed embarrassed.

I was happy initially,

but I felt it when I turned around.

He seemed mad at himself.

It felt awkward.

- Good job! - Thank you.

(Navy seamen must always be ready for surprises.)

It's lunchtime for the Navy NCO recruits...

after their intense struggle with ropes.

- What is that? - They have abalone.

What is that?

- Tae Sung. - Yes?

They have abalone.

My goodness!

This doesn't make any sense.

(Piles of whole chicken)

They served one whole chicken.

There was watermelon, too.

I got to experience the famously generous Navy meals myself.

A whole chicken is feasible.

The abalone was surprising.

They really serve abalone.

I didn't expect a whole chicken.

I was deeply moved.

Thank you.

(Petty Officer Lee Si Young's portion is much bigger.)

Thank you.

(They are all moved by the feast.)

The abalone isn't a separate dish.

It's samgyetang with abalone.

It's samgyetang with abalone.

I thought the abalone was a separate dish.

It's delicious.

Is it okay to be eating this much chicken?

Seafood is the best.

(He tries a drumstick first.)

It felt...

like my birthday.

There was even ginseng inside.

Something resembled ginseng.

Maybe it was Chinese bellflower.

(The female NCOs enjoy the meal, too.)

(Roman Princess eats elegantly with her hands.)

How old are you?

I'm 23 years old.

How did you end up on the deck department?

I wanted to be a boatswain's mate.

That's funny. Me, too.

Don't you think they're impressive?

They have to be good communicators.

Did you always want to be a soldier?

Yes, personally.

- That's cool. - Thank you.

You would make a fine soldier...

since you are good at boxing.

I think military life fits me.

She's an excellent soldier.

Tae Sung, were you a pitcher when you played baseball?

Yes, I was.

If you hadn't been injured, you would've made a great ball player.

(Chewing)

You have the right personality.

(Tae Sung listens intently to Chan Ho's compliments.)

(The natural soldier gets serious about eating.)

(Standing up)

(Her second serving is just as big as her first.)

(She gets more food very casually.)

Gosh, you eat so much!

You've found your niche.

(She doesn't care what anyone says.)

(Whatever)

(This is the happiest time for the Hungry Boxer.)

Did you get more chicken?

(Glancing)

Are you finished?

Why didn't you finish this?

- Can I have it? - Yes.

Are you hungry?

(Most people can't finish the chicken.)

Maybe it will be gone.

(For Si Young, it's just a little chick.)

(Glancing)

- Can I eat that, too? - Yes, of course.

(You can eat it.)

(She grabs it without hesitation.)

(This chicken is so good.)

Why did they not finish their samgyetang?

I ate as much as I could.

But due to time constraints, I only had two chickens.

(Si Young didn't have time to eat watermelon.)

(She begins eating the watermelon.)

(She continues to eat until the very end.)

After stuffing themselves with samgyetang,

the NCOs head out for their next training.

(20mm Vulcan cannon training, emergency abandon-ship training)

(The weapon department takes the bus.)

- Were you on "Superstar K"? - Yes.

- Did you take the first place? - I took the first place.

- Are you the winner? - Yes.

Park Si Hwan was the runner up.

- Are you that Parc Jae Jung? - Yes.

(The winner of the 2013 audition programme)

You look so different on TV.

It's because of the haircut.

Do you remember me?

- I was your fan. - Really?

Why did you sing the national anthem so terribly?

- My voice was gone. - Your voice was gone.

I'm in shock.

I want to sing, but my voice is gone.

Yesterday, we did that emergency training.

(What is he talking about?)

(You did emergency night-time training.)

(I can't believe he is the winner.)

My voice is gone after screaming all night.

(The deck and navigation department members have indigestion.)

I can't digest.

(They stuffed themselves with samgyetang.)

(From the old man to the Roman Princess,)

(everyone stuffed themselves.)

I will step on your body.

Trust me. I'm very good.

(Petty Officer Yang Sang Gook provides a home remedy.)

Why do you do that?

(Laughing)

Do you hear the cracks?

(Is she okay?)

(He might hurt her.)

- You seem at ease now. - Right.

(Roman Princess also gets treated.)

I heard my back cracking.

- But I feel better. - Of course.

(Doctor Yang Sang Gook is here.)

- You won't get hurt. - Don't mess around.

(Everyone wants treatment from the good doctor.)

(Oh my gosh!)

(Upset)

(My goodness!)

(I should have just gotten a Thai massage.)

What is the purpose of this?

(What is the purpose of this?)

After recovering from fatigue with...

Petty Officer Yang Sang Gook's home remedy,

the weapons department move to their next training.

(Strange equipment greets the recruits.)

- Hello. - Hello, Sir.

All right, let's applause.

(Senior Chief Petty Officer Im Jong Pyo)

I'll introduce myself first...

then begin the class.

I've been responsible for naval gun operation and management.

How many children do you think I have?

One child, Sir.

(Smiling)

Only one? No, that's wrong.

I have three sons.

Please, applause.

When you get married,

make sure to have three sons. Understood?

- Yes, Sir. - Yes, Sir.

I will begin my lecture on the operation...

of the 20mm Vulcan gun.

Does anyone know anything about...

the 20mm Vulcan gun?

I believe it sank...

the enemy warship in the Battle of Yeonpyeong, Sir.

That is correct.

(The ace is very knowledgeable.)

We will demonstrate how it rotates.

I heard the sound it makes when it rotates.

Men feel catharsis...

for operating huge vehicles.

- Fire. - Firing.

(Every man's dream is the Vulcan gun.)

(Startled)

(Firing loudly)

It was really amazing.

I've never seen a real Vulcan gun...

rotating in front of my eyes. I was startled.

Like you see here, the ammunition must be connected.

Open up the magazine...

and load 30 rounds. How many?

- It's 30 rounds, Sir. - That's right.

I loaded the ammunition without counting.

How did I do that?

(How did I do it?)

It's experience, Sir.

(Because of experience, Sir.)

Experience. That is correct.

After 20 years of experience, I can load them without counting.

- You must applaud. - Applause.

(Jae Jung wins the senior chief's heart.)

Recruit Parc Jae Jung, come forward and count the ammunition.

- Come forward. - Yes, Sir.

(He is selected to count the ammunition.)

(He wears white gloves reverently.)

(It's time to assess the legend's ability.)

(Feeling slightly nervous)

(He counts respectfully.)

(Everyone in the room is restless.)

(20 years of experience is at stake.)

There are 30, Sir.

(There are 30, Sir.)

(He tries not to lose his composure.)

I loaded 30 rounds, correct?

- Yes, Sir. - Like it has been mentioned,

thanks to my years of experience,

I can load the ammunition without counting.

- You should applaud. - Yes, Sir.

(We should applaud, Sir.)

We had amazing chemistry.

Because he has a lot of experience...

I like him a lot.

Because I acknowledged his experience, we got along well.

Crank the magazine belt into the chute.

(The magazine has been loaded with experience.)

(Fully loaded)

- Fire. - Firing.

(Empty shells fall to loud noises.)

Fire.

(They're completely overwhelmed by the Vulcan gun.)

Fire.

(Empty shells pour over.)

(Pouring)

The sound is what makes firing the gun exciting.

The sound has its charm.

I was thankful to be in the weapons department.

I was grateful.

(It's the fiendish charm of the weapons department.)

Once you board a warship,

you will operate and maintain a gun like this.

(Meanwhile, the others also train.)

From here on, you will march in a single file line.

(This is where the heaving line history was written.)

(Senior Chief Petty Officer Kang Tae Jin)

I'm Senior Chief Kang Tae Jin responsible for...

the abandon-ship training.

Abandon-ship training prepares you...

for instances of imminent evacuation caused...

by collisions or enemy attack.

You must escape...

and survive until rescued.

(They learn rescue course of action.)

(An hour before the training)

These are 28 emergency supplies necessary for survival.

Where do you think they are stored? They're in here.

They must be opened for survival.

The lifebuoy is used to rescue drowning personnel.

The survival bag effectively raises internal body temperature.

In order to demonstrate the function,

he will remain like this for a moment.

I think he should go out and return, Sir.

- It will be fatal. - That's not possible.

It's dangerous. It'll only take a moment.

If you feel yourself sweating or getting hot,

please let me know.

This is a signal flare. It shoots a red flare.

(It signals for rescue.)

This package contains ration bars to sustain you for three days.

There are nine in total.

It generally provides supply for three days.

They each provide around 769 calories.

- Right? - It's delicious, Sir.

- It tastes like a biscuit, Sir. - I see.

Are there other flavours like chocolate, Sir?

The taste isn't important, but our survival is.

If you must evacuate,

simply pull the safety pin and pull the lever toward you.

Once it reaches 2 to 3m below sea level,

the rope will sever, and it will deploy automatically.

(Life rafts deploy automatically.)

(That's amazing.)

It is designed to install itself within a minute.

The distance is about 7m.

Follow orders...

and climb down using the ladders and safety nets.

If you see anyone drowning during the process,

take the proper course of an action to save them.

You can rescue them by swimming,

or other various methods can be used for retrieval.

I will give you five minutes.

Please strategise and return.

The female petty officers will pull the safety pins...

- and levers. - All right.

Then we'll go down and make the oars.

- Yes, Sir. - Good.

- We must save people. - We'll do that.

- Okay. - Find them quickly.

You have to hold on and pull them up.

(He is ready to be the person in charge.)

It must be done quickly.

I think we'll need someone.

(He speaks for 95 percent of the meeting.)

He's so passionate, isn't he?

I heard that his nickname is Mr Talk Too Much.

When he talks to strangers,

it's nonstop.

I didn't think he'd talk that much.

(They say he started talking before he was born.)

(He spoke from his mother's belly.)

(Listening)

- Who'll be in charge? - Who will it be?

(Who will be in charge?)

(He emits the scent of a leader.)

(They all look at him.)

You should be in charge.

- It's fitting. - Okay.

For any new experiences,

I wanted to be the person handling it directly.

Here's a reminder for rescue retrievals.

All decisions...

are to be made by the person-in-charge. Understood?

- Yes, Sir. - Yes, Sir.

I will deliver the survival directive.

(They run through delivering the survival directive.)

The captain himself will deliver the survival directive.

The person-in-charge must confirm everything on the list.

The ship had to be abandoned due to damages incurred...

while engaging the enemy...

near the Baengnyeong Island.

(He writes down diligently.)

(But the information is too much.)

(Goodness)

(They are already worried.)

(Chan Ho is bad at memorising.)

(His brain capacity reaches its limits.)

(Poor Chan Ho)

That is all.

(Gosh)

- Salute. - Salute.

(He delivers the message.)

This is the captain. The ship...

(He sounds like he smoked three packs of cigarettes.)

(Silence)

(Moving his lips)

(He barely continues the next line.)

(Everyone stares at his lips.)

(He reads very slowly. It might take two days.)

(His mind wanders.)

(It's an emergency situation with a sinking ship.)

(The ship is halfway submerged.)

(But they are drowsy.)

(The person-in-charge is pensive...)

(as the ship dives almost completely underwater.)

(The letters seem like Arabic now.)

(Everyone is on the verge of sleeping.)

- Sit down. - Yes, Sir.

Person-in-charge, stand up.

Are you trying to kill all your colleagues?

This is an emergency.

If you deliver the information that slowly,

the ship will sink.

Memorising a lot of information was very difficult.

It was overwhelming. There were so many things to do.

Memorise the directions accurately. Understood?

(At the Vulcan gun training centre)

You will try loading the ammunition yourself.

- Recruit Parc Jae Jung. - Yes, Sir.

- Separate the ammunition. - Yes, Sir.

Because you listened very attentively, you will separate...

three rounds on your own.

(They have a teacher-student bond.)

(He happily separates the ammunition.)

(But he stalls.)

(What's wrong?)

(He wants to hide his inability.)

Recruit Parc Jae Jung.

Getting down... Oh, no.

It seemed like you were very attentive.

Do you think you can finish within today?

I remember, Sir.

Half a day already went by, Sir.

(Instead of yelling at him,)

(the instructor gently puts his hand on Jae Jung's back.)

Assume push-up position.

(He had nobody to rely on.)

(He was wounded by harsh remarks.)

Turn it to the right.

(Now, he is with the good instructor.)

Just push it.

(The instructor does it for his beloved student.)

What do you think the difference between us is?

(What do you think the difference between us is?)

It's because you are experienced, Sir.

That's right. I can do it well...

- due to experience. - Yes, Sir.

They made a great team.

Petty Officer Parc Jae Jung kept mentioning experience,

and the instructor kept boasting about it.

He understood and led me.

The chemistry was great. I'd love to see him again.

(He is happy for the first time since enlisting.)

- Good luck. - Thank you, Sir.

(He is generous and kind.)

I thought he was Petty Officer Parc Jae Jung's friend.

The two were great together.

I love the instructor.

(I love the instructor.)

(He gazes at the instructor all day and night.)

(Well...)

- Don't look at me. - Yes, Sir.

Look up front.

(I can't look any more.)

(He doesn't care what others think.)

(They have a close bond.)

He is almost like Mr Yoon Jong Shin to me.

(May I call you "Brother"?)

(Petty Officer Lee Tae Sung's turn)

(He also struggles.)

Step aside.

(He is strict to Tae Sung unlike Jae Jung.)

Recruit Lee Si Young will give it a try.

(Clinking)

(She succeeds in one go.)

It's separated, right? Separate it like this.

Load. Go ahead, Recruit Lee Si Young.

Yes, Sir.

Now, Recruit Lee Si Young made a mistake.

What kind of mistake is it?

She did not count the ammunition, Sir.

Correct.

I can skip counting due to experience.

I can tell if there are 30 rounds.

But Recruit Lee Si Young did not count.

- Understood? - I used my senses too, Sir.

(Flinching)

Despite being here less than a month, you're using your senses?

I saw the ammunition touch the ground when you did it, Sir.

Did you? We will count it then.

(It's assessment time again.)

(The goal to reach is 30.)

(Boxing honed her senses.)

Yes, there are 29. That was a great try.

We'll load the ammunition.

(She missed by one.)

(She has the strength...)

(and intelligence.)

Petty Officer Lee Si Young will fire.

(She even has a sixth sense.)

(She is the ace here.)

I was so happy.

If I hadn't come to the navy,

I would've never experienced this in my life.

I was so happy to be...

placed in the weapons department.

Return to land using the life raft.

All departments, prepare to abandon ship.

(Prepare to abandon ship.)

The ship had to be abandoned due to damages incurred...

while engaging the enemy near the Baengnyeong Island.

(Three people are drowning.)

(There are three people to save.)

(People's lives depend on each and every second.)

(A quick head count is taken.)

(The container team...)

(drops the container.)

(Things are going quite smoothly.)

(They move to the life raft after reporting the count.)

- Salute. - Salute.

I'm worried about his voice the most.

His voice was almost gone.

Report the count.

10 in all.

(Voice cracking)

(Feeling pitiful)

No outliers. Currently 10 present!

- End of report. - End of report!

- Salute. - Salute!

Salute.

(People await rescue.)

Abandon-ship.

(They begin to abandon ship.)

(He slowly descends 7m.)

Climb down slowly.

(Petty Officer Julian follows after him.)

(Petty Officer Kim Jung Tae is already at the bottom.)

The life raft doesn't come to you.

You must go to the life raft.

Why are you just watching?

(The person in charge is...)

- Salute. - This was the most confusing.

(No orders are issued.)

(Jumping in)

(He jumps in and swims toward the life raft.)

(The rescue work is being delayed.)

(It's an urgent situation.)

(He didn't even get on the life raft yet.)

(Struggling)

(He has bad luck with boats.)

(Very heavy middle-aged man's hips)

(Julian helps lift his bottom.)

(Chan Ho is hung up on memorisation.)

I kept memorising.

(He is obsessed with the past.)

I kept memorising.

(People in the water are struggling.)

(He barely makes it on board.)

Climb down. Let go of this hand first.

I was a little scared.

But I've already done abandon-ship training.

So I thought I could handle it.

I held on tight and climbed down.

(Help me!)

I'm coming!

- Wait just a moment. - Help me!

(He is still in water, drowning.)

Row! Start rowing first!

(The life raft is still far away.)

(Do I dive in?)

(Rowing doesn't help.)

(Roman Princess dives in.)

(Many people await to rescue.)

As soon as I climbed down, I became concerned...

for the people drowning in water.

I should've saved those people first.

But the female petty officers needed help, too.

So I lost my reason for a moment.

Gosh, she's heavy.

(He pulls Petty Officer Sol Bi with a scream.)

(Roman Princess is heavy as an anchor.)

(Heavy as a well-fed noble)

(He exhibits near superhuman strength...)

(and pulls her up.)

(He succeeds in pulling her in.)

(Laughing)

(He breaks down laughing.)

(Struggling)

Pull them in. I'll take care of this.

(They finally open the emergency supplies.)

I'll open this. Please row.

(They haven't reached the drowning people yet.)

(He has no interest in saving people.)

(It's chaotic down here.)

(Welcome)

(He pulls her in.)

(He deploys another expert skill.)

Move aside.

(They still haven't reached the drowning people.)

Row first. We have to save them.

I thought we needed the lifebuoy...

so we could use it to save people.

- Take them out. - Okay.

(There are 28 emergency supplies.)

No.

Where is that rope?

(They waste precious time.)

(Whistling for no reason)

(It's just chaotic.)

(Even a person on-board dives back into water.)

What was going on? Petty Officer Park Chan Ho wasn't in sight.

The life raft was a total disaster.

The person-in-charge must go down and control the situation.

I was trying to be the leader...

who is the last to leave. But all of a sudden,

"What are you doing? Go down and give orders!"

I was clueless and in trouble.

Suddenly, everyone was in the water.

Row! You need to row!

They were like children...

separated from their caring mother.

Row! Pull them in!

(He gives orders too late.)

Pull! Row!

(It seems like they will be rescued next year.)

(This group is about to sink.)

- Row! - Is it that rope?

- Isn't this the rope? - No, this isn't it.

(The mother bird is devastated.)

(Suddenly)

(Petty Officer Julian dives in...)

(like a muscular life guard...)

(who saves people at the beach.)

He said we had to rescue them in any way possible.

(The drill instructor said they must be saved at all cost.)

(He's the one-man Belgian rescue squad.)

(Julian drags him by the neck.)

(Instead of saving a blonde beauty,)

(he saves a fellow soldier.)

(The rescue activity finally picks up.)

Climb down safely.

(Chan Ho follows suit and descends.)

(Is another hero on the way?)

(The born leader takes action.)

Wait. Wait.

Hold it with two hands and wait.

Are you going to let them drown?

(The Belgian rescue squad has no time to rest.)

I was inspired by Petty Officer Julian saving everyone.

(On the other hand)

Give me the paddle.

Hold it. Hold it tight!

(He pulls the boat by grasping the oar.)

(He leads the team by following his own plan.)

Come on. Jump.

(He throws Petty Officer Seo Ji Soo...)

(safely onto the life raft.)

He came out of nowhere.

And then all of a sudden...

(And then all of a sudden...)

He doesn't share his thought process. He appears out of nowhere.

And he displays leadership by saying that he'll go and rescue people.

He had plans of his own.

(He rescues the last person.)

(Julian struggles by himself.)

(Flinging)

(They throw the lifebuoy too short.)

(They finally get to use the lifesaving equipment.)

(He loops it on the victim as he learned.)

(They manage to rescue the victim to safety.)

(Everybody makes it to the life raft.)

Row!

- Did everyone make it? - Yes!

(Chan Ho displays leadership.)

- Row! Row! - One, two.

(Chan Ho and his raft are on fire.)

Row with your hands!

Let's go. Get off.

- Hold on. - Ladies, go first.

(They work together.)

Ladies, get off. Hurry!

Line up in two rows.

(The survival scene is in tatters.)

(The petty officers are exhausted.)

Let me ask you one thing.

- Recruit Yang Sang Gook. - Yes, Sir.

What action did you take in the raft?

I was looking for lifesaving equipment, Sir.

You were looking for it.

That's the first problem.

You were too intent in looking for something.

You should have paid more attention to the victim, but none of you...

went in the water to save them.

Anyhow, what Recruit Julian did deserves to be commanded.

(He was selfless...)

(and saved all the victims.)

The rest of the recruits should reflect on their behaviour.

I should have saved the victims first,

but I think I was too busy thinking about myself.

I could have saved the victims if I showed more initiative.

I regret it.

This concludes the abandon-ship training.

- Thank you, Sir! - Thank you, Sir!

(Navy never leaves its comrades in the water.)

After the arduous training,

the recruits return to their barracks.

You're back.

- What did you do today? - We went in the water again.

- Did you dive in the water? - Yes, we did.

I'm jealous.

Why are you jealous? My underwear and clothes are wet.

We could have done better if we weren't rushed.

But we were in a hurry, so we were all over the place.

We should have dived in the water and rescued the floating victims.

(The drill instructors step into the women's barrack.)

Attention.

(Stalling)

You can sit on your beds.

- Please have a sit. - Thank you.

Now...

You can put your lotion on.

Yes, it's okay.

- Thank you. - Sure.

(She's unbelievable.)

Your training and education conclude today.

It's a relief that we finished with nobody hurt.

I'm very proud of you all.

- Thank you, Sir. - Thank you, Sir.

I'll now announce the naval vessel...

you are assigned to.

(I'll now announce the naval vessel you are assigned to.)

(At the same time)

- Attention. - Yes, Sir.

Are you ready to be deployed?

- Yes, Sir. - Yes, Sir.

(The men get assigned as well.)

You...

(This is a tense moment.)

You will be assigned to...

(The petty officers will be going to...)

ROKS Munmu the Great.

ROKS Munmu the Great.

(It's ROKS Munmu the Great!)

(It doesn't sound ordinary.)

I never imagined...

we'd be going on a vessel.

The name ROKS Munmu the Great itself...

sounded overwhelming.

Salute! ROKS Munmu the Great...

is the leading vessel in capturing Somalian pirates.

Weighing 4,500t...

and extending 150m, it's grand in size.

(Its naval gun has a maximum range of 30km.)

It's a Korean destroyer that inherits...

King Munmu's resolve on defending the fatherland.

You'll be fulfilling your duties as a boatswain's mate,

a helmsman and an ammunition handler.

Are we actually supposed to...

use what we practised during the trainings?

I really hope the ship doesn't stop because of me.

What if I make a mistake again?

It was a different type of tension.

I hope you use the skills which you acquired from here.

Thank you for your hard work.

- Thank you, Sir. - Thank you, Sir.

(They must perform in a real vessel!)

They finish the short but intense training at the school...

and get deployed to ROKS Munmu the Great.

According to my experience...

When I was at the armoured battalion last time,

the real training started as soon as I got on the tank.

(Chan Ho shares his military knowledge again.)

Even though you're happy since you'll be getting on the vessel,

they'll try to intimidate you once you're on board.

When we actually are out on the sea, there will be waves...

which I think will be really tough.

(The new petty officers will face extreme experience on the vessel.)

It's the sea.

It's the sea.

(They see an expanse of waters outside the windows.)

(His heart pounds.)

(And)

(There's a vessel that's anchored at the dock.)

- It's an aircraft carrier. - Is that it?

(ROKS Munmu the Great is much more majestic than they thought.)

(Roman Princess gets excited at the sight of it.)

Don't say it now. Say it when we get there.

- You're going to get car sick. - Doesn't it look great?

I'm so honoured that we'll be able to get on that ship.

It's so majestic.

It looks awesome with seagulls in the sky.

(Seagull is my friend.)

(Seagulls remind them of the cadence.)

They must be trained.

- That's right. - They're welcoming us.

- Attention. - Yes, Sir.

We have arrived at ROKS Munmu the Great where you've been deployed.

Pack your belongings and line up in two rows. Understood?

- Yes, Sir. - Yes, Sir.

Everyone, get off.

- Yes, Sir. - Yes, Sir.

(They're captivated by...)

(ROKS Munmu the Great.)

Finally, the new petty officers have arrived at...

the sea which is welcoming them with its blue colour.

The splendid ROKS Munmu the Great is anchored on shore.

Before you go aboard the vessel,

I'll conduct training on etiquette.

I could feel the navy's pride and its greatness...

from its overwhelming size.

It was huge,

so I couldn't tell if it was a dream or reality.

Am I going to board this vessel?

(I'm going to board this vessel?)

(Shuddering)

Are we actually boarding this ship?

(Are we actually boarding this ship?)

The petty officers get on...

ROKS Munmu the Great as they're half worried and half excited.

They make their historic entrance as crew members...

of the impressive ROKS Munmu the Great.

(They make their entrance towards ROKS Munmu the Great.)

They board ROKS Munmu the Great...

with the aspiration to protect Korean sea.

(They make a strong resolve.)

What would happen inside the vessel?

We'll commence with NCO assignment report.

(NCO assignment report)

Salute the captain!

- Salute! - Salute!

(Captain Kim Ki Hwan)

I welcome you aboard as crew members...

of the honourable and historic ROKS Munmu the Great.

In order to win in combat,

you must accomplish your assigned duties.

(Each of them gets to shake the captain's hand.)

Welcome, Petty Officer Park Chan Ho.

Thank you, Sir! I'll try my best to defeat the enemies!

- All right, make sure you do so. - Yes, Sir!

- I'm honoured. I'll try my best. - All right, try your best.

(They have lost their voice from all the training.)

Petty Officer Julian! I'm scared but I'll try my best!

You're scared?

I'm slightly scared, Sir!

I'm afraid that we'd be boarding this big ship.

Don't be afraid. Try your best, okay?

Yes, Sir!

- Welcome. - If enemies approach,

I'll conquer them all...

at the lead, Sir!

(I'll conquer them all.)

I like your spirit.

Thank you, Sir!

- I'll try my best, Sir! - All right, try your best.

Petty Officer Seo Ji Soo. I'll try my best with my fellow officers.

You have to shake my hand.

I'll try my best with my fellow officers, Sir.

- Try your best with other officers. - Yes, Sir. Thank you.

Your section leaders will direct you,

so take your belongings and move into the barracks.

(You've never seen the inside of a vessel, right?)

(They cross the narrow hallway...)

(and find the stairs which lead to the level below.)

(It's tight for one person to get through,)

(but they also have their bags to carry.)

(They follow a labyrinth-like hallway...)

(and arrive at living quarters!)

(This space looks congested.)

This is the living quarter you'll be staying in.

(This will be their new home.)

It was like one of those capsule hotels in Japan.

The beds are cramped in the ship,

and the ceiling is 10cm above your head.

This is how it probably feels to be in a casket.

(This is how it probably feels to be in a casket.)

This is the space you'll be staying in.

They were triple bunk beds.

Three people lying down on top of each other...

would be like we are stacked in a fridge.

I thought we'd be lying down in a box like commodities.

This is unbelievable. How can we...

What if you break your nose while trying to get up?

(This is the beginning of their head-butting ordeal.)

They move to separate locations according to their specialties.

(They split into helmsman, boatswain's mate and gunner's mate.)

The boatswain's mates...

move to the head of the ship, the forecastle deck.

The forecastle deck is the centre portion of the vessel...

where they anchor the vessel and manage port docking duties.

When I first arrived at the deck,

I felt overwhelmed.

I felt overwhelmed by being on the deck.

(What's that?)

(An unordinary looking man appears.)

- All the incomers have arrived. - Are we good?

(Senior Chief Petty Officer Ha Seung Soo)

You are now the boatswain's mate of the deck department.

(He looks like an experienced seaman.)

Boatswain's mates are the flowers of the navy.

(His first comment is very unusual.)

We set disciplines for the vessel...

and patrol the space.

We also control all the training that occurs on the deck department.

He was so cool.

He's the person I should look up to.

(I want to be the highest ranked person on the ship.)

The deck department is the best.

- Is it? - It's the highest position.

There are three things I'd like you to remember.

First, act accordingly.

If you are a boatswain's mate, act like one.

If you're a petty officer, act like one.

Next.

Don't leave your inferior behind you.

(Sorry?)

During combat, while you work or train and even during high tides,

you should never leave your inferior behind you.

Every sentence he says is inspiring. I'm serious.

I've never met a person like him.

Third, become a seaman.

Defeat the tides and the water. Get used to the steel plates.

That's how you become the navy,

and then you'll become the boatswain's mate.

He's no ordinary man.

We endured the platoon leader and got here.

But there's another person like him.

(The deck is full of his inspiring comments.)

(He is like the poet on the deck.)

Become a seaman to the bone. Understood?

- Yes, Sir! - Yes, Sir!

Wasn't he amazing?

I was just drawn to him.

At the same time, helmsmen...

head to the navigation department which is the vessel's eyes.

All right. First of all,

welcome aboard ROKS Munmu the Great as helmsman.

(Senior Chief Petty Officer Park Jong Ha)

Helmsmen are in charge of navigating the vessel.

I hope you take pride in your role and do your best.

There were a lot of equipment I was unfamiliar with.

It's not easy to mobilise a huge ship.

I won't be physically tired,

but I might have to use my brain a lot.

An hour before departure.

Departure time is 6:30pm.

They reported us that it's an hour before the departure.

You have to prepare for departure.

(Departure?)

ROKS Munmu the Great departs from Jinhae.

They'll conduct fire combat exercise near...

Korea Hydrographic and Oceanographic Agency in Ieo Island...

and make port in Jeju Naval Base.

An hour before departure.

We'll be departing for Jeju Island.

Prepare for departure.

When we prepare for departure,

tuck your pants in your socks.

Like so.

Why must we do so, Sir?

Spaces are limited, so there are a lot of structures in place.

You can get caught and trip.

In order to prevent that, we tuck our pants in.

(Tucking)

I've never tucked my pants in my socks.

What's going on?

My gosh.

(They do the same at the deck department.)

We're watching. Dress properly.

From now on,

I'll train you...

on broadcast protocol and signalling apparatus.

(Broadcast protocol signals the commencement of duties.)

(During emergency situation, they speak or use the alert system.)

Helmsman represents the voice and the face of the ship.

So you must think twice...

and conduct the broadcast protocol and flag signalling properly.

I felt an increasing sense of responsibility...

since everybody will be moving at my instructions.

I can't make a mistake.

First, the alert system...

has alarms for various emergency situations.

There are five dials.

I'll show you a vocal example.

First, general quarters alarm goes like this.

(He repeats four times.)

This is how it sounds like.

(His voice breaks the heavy atmosphere.)

Secondly, collision alarm.

(He makes the alarm sound.)

That's how it sounds like.

Third, chemical attack alert.

(He sounds very serious.)

Fourth, missile emergency alert.

(He tries his best to show them examples.)

(There are high and low pitches.)

(He can make all types of sounds with his mouth.)

(He sings the alerts perfectly.)

That's what the alarms sound like.

All right, let's practise.

Who would like to try first?

- I'll go first, Sir. - Petty Officer Kim Jung Tae.

Collision alarm.

(Beeping)

(Hesitating)

Be confident and loud.

(He's not sure.)

Next.

Missile emergency alert.

(Guess)

(He's embarrassed.)

(She can't hold back her laughter.)

- Don't laugh. - Yes, Sir.

Petty Officer Kim Jung Tae. Last is the general alarm.

(He can't remember.)

Let me give you a hint.

You need to make a short and a long sound.

(Guessing)

(What kind of alert is that?)

Didn't you learn them in the second-half of your training?

(They learned the Morse code during the previous training.)

(They were bombarded with different short and long sounds.)

(He couldn't stay awake.)

Does any of you know what the short and long sounds are?

(May I try?)

(Beep)

Good job. The alert sounds...

like what he showed us. Understood?

Yes, Sir.

While the helmsmen are being trained,

the boatswain's mates begin their tasks before departure.

No other specialty looks towards land...

and senses it before the boatswain's mates.

You'll be the first to sail out to the sea...

and to come back on shore.

This is your stage. Understood?

- Yes, Sir! - Yes, Sir!

Your mind controls your body.

Even if you're tired, smile through it.

If you're tired, you'll make the rest of the officers suffer.

- Understood? - Yes, Sir!

I think he is very sentimental.

He embraces us. He's energetic.

He is a great leader. He's very reliable.

Wasn't he amazing?

(She can't hide her fondness.)

Don't do anything foolish in front of others.

Make sure you do precisely as you've trained. Understood?

- Yes, Sir! - Yes, Sir!

(They prepare for departure.)

First mooring rope is at the front.

(Ji Soo is in charge of the first mooring rope.)

Second mooring rope is next, followed by the third mooring rope.

Petty Officer Yang Sang Gook is in charge of intraship radio duty.

Forecastle deck...

(Chan Ho focuses too much on memorising.)

- Petty Officer Park Chan Ho. - Petty Officer Park Chan Ho, Sir!

Did you learn about the heaving line at Combat Training School?

- Yes, Sir. - Can you do it?

(He was successful at his third attempt.)

(His tenacity paid off.)

Do as you have learnt.

(He tries doing it as he has learnt.)

(Let's see.)

Look at me. Make loops.

Look at me and start making loops. Go.

(Without looking at the rope?)

Don't look at the rope. Just do it.

(This is different than how they were trained.)

Don't look at the rope. Make loops like so. Understood?

The senior chief had his own know-how.

(These are the hands of a master.)

I could see that he's done it a lot on scenes.

- Practise. - Yes, Sir.

The senior chief is cool.

I see.

I think his role itself is cool, too.

(She's already fallen for him.)

Where should your gaze be?

Straight ahead?

(He never loses his decency while instructing others.)

You must be ahead of the other officers.

(He scolds when needed.)

You can do better next time.

(You can do better next time.)

(If there are depths to how great a person can be,)

(his greatness reaches the bottom of the ocean.)

Boatswain's mates are the flowers of the navy.

Defeat the tides and the water. Get used to the steel plates.

Become a seaman to the bone. Understood?

This is your stage.

(The Stories of the Deck Department)

Meanwhile, at the weapons department...

(The weapons department also prepares for departure.)

(They start to feel the reality of life in a vessel.)

We're actually on a ship.

(The TASS room is located at the tail.)

This room...

is TASS.

- The TASS room. - It's the TASS room.

When he said it was the TASS room,

I thought that's where the newcomers go.

They call it the TASS room because we got on it for the first time.

(They got on it for the first time.)

We'll move the heavy ones first.

(They start working as soon as they enter in the room.)

Let's lift. One, two, three.

(It's heavy.)

(They remove the structures to get ready for departure.)

(It doesn't look easy from the beginning.)

When I was assigned to be a gunner's mate as a cadet,

I wasn't sure if I'd be good in doing fire combat...

or handling the naval gun properly.

(The weapons she dreamed about are nowhere to be found.)

One, two.

(Heavy metal structures are everywhere.)

Shooting or cannons...

(Instead of shooting, there is a lot of heavy lifting.)

Thank you.

You will carry out intraship radio duty next to me.

Yes, Ma'am!

I thought, "Why me?"

I just...

wanted to do something physical.

I was worried.

(Speaking gibberish)

(His voice is gone.)

His voice is gone.

(Being dim-witted is a bonus.)

I have no idea why he was selected for radio duty.

(He places his colleague's worries aside.)

Ask the bridge what the walkie talkie channel is.

Walkie talkie...

Walkie talkie. Channel. What is it?

- What is the channel? - Do you know what channel is?

(It takes him an eternity.)

Ask for the TASS room's walkie talkie channel.

TASS room. Yes.

Walkie talkie...

Walkie talkie channel is what?

Please standby.

TASS room, copy.

(Is something wrong?)

(Speaking gibberish)

(She has never heard such words since enlisting.)

What did you say?

I'm not sure what they are saying, Ma'am.

Please repeat that, over. This is TASS room.

This is TASS room. After departure, retrieve the flag pole.

- After I say this. - Retrieve the flag pole.

I got a message.

(I don't believe you.)

Retrieve the pole.

The order to retrieve the flag pole has been given.

Petty Officers Lee Si Young and Lee Tae Sung.

Go up and retrieve the flag pole.

- Yes, Ma'am. - Yes, Ma'am.

You will perform intraship radio duty by my side.

Do I bring the radio?

- Of course. - Yes, Ma'am.

Lee Si Young and Lee Tae Sung, go down.

Go down.

(They are ordered to enter as soon as they go up.)

I think the message was relayed incorrectly.

The order is to retrieve the pole after departure.

(Feeling lost)

Petty Officer Parc Jae Jung.

Listen carefully.

- Understood? - Yes, Ma'am.

- Louder. - Yes, Ma'am.

I just relayed what I heard.

I had no idea that it was the wrong message.

I just found out that it was wrong.

When I went up, I was ordered to go back down.

I wondered what was going on and where the mistake was.

TASS room, Methodist.

Isn't it "volume"?

The volume is good.

Is it actually good?

I just reported it in, Ma'am.

I'm asking if you can hear well.

Is that what volume means, Ma'am?

It is good.

(He has a long way to go.)

Petty Officer Yang Sang Gook.

(He's the radio operator for the senior chief.)

Come here at once.

- You are to be my shadow. - Yes, Sir!

- Should shadow be far away? - I'm sorry, Sir!

- Stay close. - Yes, Sir!

Do you despise me?

No, Sir! I have a short line, so I ran here quickly, Sir!

- Stay close. - Yes, Sir!

Do not speak with an accent.

Yes, Sir!

I don't have any accent.

I was just speaking.

Use the same tone as me.

There's no problem at the bow.

There's no problem at the bow.

(He unconsciously speaks with an accent.)

Don't speak with an accent. Speak in normal tone.

- Understood? - Yes, Sir!

(I don't have any accent.)

(In the navigation room, Petty Officer Seo In Young is ready.)

You will broadcast now.

It didn't seem that difficult.

I have experience being a show hostess.

I thought I just had to read clearly.

(Testing the mic)

Be advised.

All personnel possessing cell phones.

(Her voice is too friendly.)

They must submit them immediately.

(Her high tone of voice...)

(is amicable.)

Orders from the duty officer, over.

(Oh my gosh!)

Petty Officer Seo In Young.

How did the previous instructor train you?

(Oh my gosh!)

How did the instructor do it, Sir?

(The announcement must be made in a serious tone.)

(She was too relaxed and friendly.)

The PA system broadcast is the voice and face of this ship.

Should announcements be made in that manner?

I panicked once again.

I did not know if I should speak like a flight attendant...

or if I should sound seriously urgent.

You will announce "30 minutes prior".

- Do it. - Is that what I need to do, Sir?

You will execute the broadcast according to the clock...

1 minute and 30, 15 and 10 seconds before departure.

Speak clearly with a strong voice.

(Mistakes will no longer be tolerated.)

(Her colleagues are nervous, too.)

(Concentrating)

30 minutes prior departure.

(Her first broadcast is heard throughout the ship.)

Be advised.

30 minutes prior departure. Be advised.

She sounded angry and terse.

Departure.

(Laughing)

30 minutes prior departure.

Isn't that Petty Officer Seo In Young?

I thought she had been in a fight.

She was very terse...

and professional.

A minute prior. 30 seconds prior.

A minute prior. 30 seconds prior.

(20 seconds pass in 5 seconds.)

(They are confused by the rapid pace of time.)

(She continues her count down.)

(This is strange.)

It is currently 6:09pm.

The time has been set, end.

(She finished the broadcast in lightning speed.)

(Feeling nervous)

- Petty Officer Seo In Young. - Yes, Sir?

Do you think you did correctly?

- No, Sir! - You just...

rattled off the 30 second count...

right after a minute. Does that make any sense?

(Feeling sad)

Your mistake just got broadcast to everyone on this ship.

How do you expect to work at the navigation department?

The crew are waiting.

You will yell, "All hands on the mooring line."

All hands on the mooring line.

- All hands on the mooring line. - All hands on the mooring line.

(The deck department gets busy.)

(The job begins simultaneously.)

(It's a battle against the rope.)

(They untie the mooring line and get ready to depart.)

- One, two. - One, two.

(The line weighs 270kg.)

(The length is at an incredible 200m.)

(The task tires out everyone in no time.)

- Pull. - One, two.

(The weapons department joins in as well.)

- One, two. - One, two.

(They pull and pull.)

- More. - One, two.

(There's no end in sight.)

- One, two. - One, two.

(Stumbling)

Pulling the line was so difficult.

It was heavy enough to pull my body weight.

(Line pulling never ends.)

(Armpits get soaked.)

(Everyone showers in perspiration.)

I sweated so much.

I've never sweated so much in my life.

It felt like...

lifting weights in a sauna.

I think the navy...

will win every game of tug-of-war in the country.

(In the navigation room,)

(the captain of the ship emerges.)

(Petty Officer Seo In Young is frozen solid.)

(The tension escalates another level.)

15 minutes prior departure.

(15 minutes before departure)

Departure personnel, stand by.

Two, three.

(With the roar of the departure personnel,)

(the horn blares off an incredible sound.)

(Startled)

(The horn is incredibly loud.)

The mind...

- Rules over the body. - Rules over the body.

That's right. The mind...

- Rules over the body. - Rules over the body.

This is a good day to depart.

(The senior chief fires off another quote before departure.)

Let's have a clean departure.

To your stations.

To your stations.

- Yes, Sir! - Yes, Sir!

(They move quickly.)

It's 1st line, 8 in all, in position.

It's 2nd line, 14 in all, in position.

It's 3rd line, 9 in all, in position.

(The roll call is rapid.)

Departure preparation complete.

Departure personnel, to your stations.

- In position. - In position.

(They remove remaining mooring lines.)

(Departure is imminent.)

(The YTL is ready to tow the ship.)

(As final preparations are made,)

(the anticipated moment arrives.)

Do I blow the whistle?

Say "depart" after you blow the whistle.

(Petty Officer Seo In Young will announce the departure broadcast.)

Depart.

- Petty Officer Seo In Young. - Yes, Sir?

Do not mess around.

I didn't know that I was pointing like this, Sir.

(It's time for real announcement.)

(Looking determined)

(In Young resolutely blows the bosun pipe.)

Depart.

(Something is off.)

Do it again.

Focus.

(Everyone is focused.)

(The instructor sweats profusely.)

If they don't know what they should do, you need to teach them.

(The captain disciplines the instructor.)

I expected them to be like this. They just got here today.

(Glancing)

That's what scared me.

He wasn't scolding me.

He was criticising my superior.

I realised I had to be good.

(She made two consecutive mistakes with the departure announcement.)

(Her superior leads the departure announcement.)

Departure!

(This is it!)

(They sail to the middle of the ocean.)

(ROKS Munmu the Great charges ahead.)

(YTL leaves after helping the departure.)

YTL breakaway!

- YTL breakaway! - YTL breakaway!

Say it short and thick.

- Don't make it sound pretty. - Yes, Sir!

(That's another good quote.)

(Their long voyage finally begins.)

It's the first ship I prepared to departure.

It was a great feeling.

Seeing it move away from shore...

felt like it was leaving its mother's arms.

It can't run away when it's on the sea.

You have to be alert at all times.

It was moving smoothly.

It was spectacle. The huge ship was moving on its own.

I realised only after a while that the ship departed.

I looked outside after a long time,

and we were in the open sea.

I was looking forward to what was going to happen.

The vessel heads toward the open sea...

with the new petty officers' expectations.

What will they witness above the waters?

(Next week)

(It starts as a stormy voyage.)

Are you kidding me? Assume push-up position.

Do you think that makes sense? Do it right.

- It's hard. - What are you trying to do?

Is this the best you can do?

(Will it be comfortable evening roll call?)

Are you relaxed now that you're on board?

(They compete for victory in the middle of the ocean.)

(Si Young is good in all types of activities!)

(They shed tears aboard.)

(An emergency situation occurs.)

(What would happen to them in the open sea?)

(Next week on Real Men 2, My Youth Is a Wave)
