Or maybe he just had to quickly retreat after firing the NLAW and missing (they mention it's firing at the building). He didn't have time to grab it. I think he went back to get it eventually. Otherwise they wouldn't have given the wounded man's rifle to that guy who already had his own rifle. They would have just given it to the guy who lose his rifle.
>people move slow
Of course they do, if you run around a corner without checking it properly you are going to get clapped.
The only time you'll see people sprint in combat is moving between cover or went everything is fricked.
Honestly this looks fake to me, like a better produced version of those chechen tiktok videos or an edited training mission with extra fx.
Sus as frick.
Anything is potentially fake unless they show people being killed. Obviously this video has been sanitised to hell for youtube. We will never know the truth unless an unedited version is released somewhere.
It's not just sanitised. They don't seem to really shoot except in one instance, despite the sounds. There's no shell casings in the ground, or smoke. We don't hear what happens in that upper floor. Despite that wounded dude in the shoulder, there's almost no blood. The area doesn't seem too damaged despite being a front line under russian fire. They all talk and operate operationally and it just seems edited to make that korean protagonist guy look good, but not too much, with a careful dose of drama.
I'm just a nerd that has been watching war videos since the Irak invasion, but this really feels like larping and not a reall combat situation.
For every Wild West Baghdad shootout video, there's over a dozen patrols that turned out just like how it did in this video. If you're getting into contact in every movement, you're not gonna last long statistically.
You and me can neither confirm nor deny whether it's real. No shell casings? It's not like they had to be in an area that had seen combat before. If you watched the video closely you would have caught that russians call in artillery on buildings where they contact infantry. No blood? You see him with a bloody arm later in the video. Buildings not damaged? I don't know about you but there seemed to be debris and glass everywhere in some parts.
The area might not be damaged cause it's Irpin at the beginning of war. A very chaotic stage, without frontlines and heavy artillery fire like in the east.
I prefer this stuff to the random (admittedly kino) short clips of tanks getting blown up or dudes getting a grenade dropped on them from a drone.
Where to find more?
Same, to me the movement to and from the objective and how the team interacts is just as interesting as the actual shooting, it's a shame there isn't more of that.
Compare it to the video of his last mission before he got sent home for pnemonia. The difference in organization and general competence is very apparent.
makes sense , all the larpers got filtered out and the people with actual experience were actually able to function with out baby sitting said larpers.
It's already established that the padlock wouldn't stop people from hopping the fence. At that point it's just holding the gate closed so why bother locking it?
He lied to Ken when he was trying to form his team, they go out on mission and got in contact with the Orcs, Aussie freaks out and literally starts shitting himself in shock requiring them to CASEVAC him out lol
Ken and his friend "Logan" are pretty funny guys and you can tell Ken operated pretty hard with how he described everything and his friends being scared shitless the whole time
Within 48 hours of entering Ukraine they got dumped like 5km outside of Irpin under indirect artillery fire and had to hike into town lol pretty crazy shit
His friend Logan literally went home after that one mission it was too much for him
>His friend Logan literally went home after that one mission it was too much for him
Don't blame him , his got a wife and kids (korean women nag a lot so this would been a greater reason why he left ) . It also isn't his war to fight . But respect Rhee for staying until he got injured.
It will never stop being funny to me how these western gigasupersoldiers that are supposed to be the hottest shit of all time shit the bed and run away when the enemy isn't illiterate goat herders and you don't have total air superiority and medvacs ready to go at any time. >nooo the enemy has missiles too wtf this is unfair >nooo not the hecking artillerino!!!! i'm leaving
Based Georgia, if their deaths are so high surely that means there are lots of them in the field, that would cause concern if Russia were capable of thinking ahead even two steps
>no jap casualties >ONE South Korean casualty
Either the japs are too piss scared to even volunteer to kill vatniks compared to the based South Koreans
Or the japs are so good at their jobs they don't even get shot
Or the japs sincerely have no combat ability whatsoever and are designated to non-combat roles
Ukraine has been declining whoever wanting to join the corps without any military experience, and South Korea having an active conscription system puts them on a better spot in situations like this.
That's not what just about every GWOT vet will tell you. Brad Colbert has done and said some amazing things about PTS which really just boils down to soldiers being in such heighten state of alert and being fueled with prolong adrenaline that they developed PTS compared to them seeing and doing insane shit. Doing nothing is drastically different than being bored.
Black person spends 1 minute complaining about having to pick up brass. c**t, if no one ever picked up brass after a unit shoot you'd be laying in a 1m deep pit of old brass every time your unit went to the range. What a fricking petulant child.
>using google maps to find a good position
Modern combat sure is different, everyone that isn't getting jammed has all kinds of advantages if they know how to use them.
Maybe I have blinders on, but man that kind of "combat" isn't how I remembered it in Afghanistan. There needs to be a lot more screaming, a lot more rage, a lot my adrenaline crying, and a lot more chaotic confusion where everyone just mumbles at each other trying to get words out and then no one understands each other so it just turns into screaming and hand gestures until someone gets a slap to the helmet by the person that is now taking charge. All the videos like this seem like the guy spent hours in the mirror rehearsing lines to say during moments he may encounter. Not saying they are fake or staged; they just don't feel organic. I just think when you have these mash shooting streaming videos that look more organic than the shit coming out the the Ukraine something is wrong.
Just my 4 pineapples though.
It's because they are a multinational squad formed temporarily for killing vatniks. It doesn't have the shared experience of infantry units to have screaming and rage.
>squad formed by NATO standart special forces from around the world in a war where the enemy has the upper hand in many areas >bunch muhreeen grunts playing with sandBlack folk that can't really do anything
Nato cargo cultists and worst koreans to boot make great airsoft short movies, but as it turns out a fifty year old shell fired by drunk cousin dima beats after dark operator edits and morale patches
Imagine Ken being a Japanese. He would've been immediately picked up and hailed as a national hero, and there would be mangas and movies, all sorts of media coverage about his story pouring out for years to come. The Japanese and Chinese must be extremely furious about him not being one of them kek.

"Closes thing japs got to Ken is a kyokushin karateka that fought and train with Mujahideen. .
"Tanaka worked in a typical office job in Tokyo’s Shinjuku district when he decided to take up arms against the Soviets in Afghanistan. However, the 44-year-old was not without any training. Though he never served in the JSDF, Tanaka was a sixth-degree black belt in Kyokushin Karate and an instructor in the martial art. He brought his skills with him to Afghanistan and taught hand-to-hand combat to the U.S.-backed mujahideen.
Though he fought alongside them, Tanaka did not adopt the tenets of Islam that the Afghan guerillas fought under. Rather, he went into battle with the mindset of a samurai. Tanaka found that there were parallels between the two cultures. Where a mujahideen fighter could earn a spot in Heaven through martyrdom in the holy war, Tanaka sought glory and honor in combat like the samurai warriors of old. “I hope in my mind that I will have the samurai spirit when it is time to die,” he said. He even carried an extra grenade at all times to martyr himself rather than suffer the shame of capture. "
>Instead, he'll be a persona non grata in Korea, and will probably never go back.
nah he got back home a couple months ago . He's got friends in high places.
>To get there, he had to break South Korean law -- Seoul banned its citizens from travelling to Ukraine, and Rhee, who was injured in a fall while leading a special operations patrol there, was met at the airport by 15 police officers on his return. >But first, he needs to deal with the official repercussions of his trip. He is quietly optimistic South Korea's new conservative administration won't put him in jail. >Rhee is not allowed to leave the country until his case is resolved, and is receiving treatment for his injuries. But he hopes one day to fight alongside his teammates again, for a cause they believe in. >But the reaction in South Korea -- where Rhee shot to fame as a trainer in the popular YouTube series "Fake Men" -- was swift and unforgiving.
>>But first, he needs to deal with the official repercussions of his trip. He is quietly optimistic South Korea's new conservative administration won't put him in jail.
There not going to do shit . The administration is full on Ronald Reagan style neocon. The prez is gearing up south korea and telling the norks frick off with their bullshit. If they punish one of their top warrior for fight a Nork ally they're going to look like pussies .
East Asians are big on law and order no matter their political affliation.
Even if he doesn't end up a single second on jail his case will be drawn out and he'll pay exorbitant lawyer fees and will be an official pariah in SoKor society outside of his Youtube channel.
>official pariah in SoKor society outside of his Youtube channel.
Literally every MSM SK news network is sucking his dick and calling him a war hero . He still getting advisor roles in the SK entertainment business. One thing that out ranks an east asians desire for law and order is their narcissism and specifically narcissism through association .
Grant him American citizenship. He dared to fight the Vatnik scum.

If anything it'll be even worse for him. Isn't Yoon a former cop who ran on law and order and shat on Moon for abusing the legal system?
Thanks. This actually seems legit. Can't believe one of those dudes was almost 50.
Nothingburger.
Looks kinda chaotic, to forget a rifle is a big frick up.
Or maybe he just had to quickly retreat after firing the NLAW and missing (they mention it's firing at the building). He didn't have time to grab it. I think he went back to get it eventually.

Ehhhhh not sure about that.
Ever heard of rifle slings?
if this is real is still looks like an airshitter larp
Real close combat looks pretty close to airsoft larp IMO, it's janky, people move slow.

If this is a LARP, please explain what had happened to prepare for this video.
Yes, it's fake to the point where one of his crews got killed by shrapnel and decorated with medals by the Ukrainian gov. You surely got him good.
The area might not be damaged cause it's Irpin at the beginning of war. A very chaotic stage, without frontlines and heavy artillery fire like in the east.

Pretty common practice where I live.

what rifle is he using at the start?
Cz Bren 2
>Cz Bren 2
Hope they were enjoying BRENdas.
t. Czech
They got the Brens back .
Im not criticizing. But do they not use slings?
Probably just rushing in panic, a BMP starts shooting at you and you aren't going to think about anything other than getting cover and AT.
Some of them are using two point slings .
>dood this was JUST LIKE my favorite movie full metal jacket
yep, fake confirmed
The korean guy thinks he's in a movie 24/7. Doesn't mean it's fake.
>check out his other videos
>shittalks some aussie for shitting and puking on first day
>needs evac in the end because he can't hold his shit
all aussies are fricking pussies
What video is this from? No way he actually calls him a piece of shit Australian lmao
it was in the debrief 1, in segment where he talks about his team
He's not calling out the Australians as a whole, he's just calling out the larper gay who had been lying about his service record.
>Aussie is a liar, a coward, and a shitposter
>Aussie is an unwelcome burden to those around him, a shitter, and despised
As is tradition
Aussie here, we have pieces of shit here, which nation can claim not to?
He lied to Ken when he was trying to form his team, they go out on mission and got in contact with the Orcs, Aussie freaks out and literally starts shitting himself in shock requiring them to CASEVAC him out lol
Ken and his friend "Logan" are pretty funny guys and you can tell Ken operated pretty hard with how he described everything and his friends being scared shitless the whole time

Artillery with drones is some scary shit some goat farmer from Afghanistan can never do.
Within 48 hours of entering Ukraine they got dumped like 5km outside of Irpin under indirect artillery fire and had to hike into town lol pretty crazy shit
His friend Logan literally went home after that one mission it was too much for him

I almost agree with you, but they had no comms, no info, no anything.
You want me to drop this c**t?
What separates the Aussie studs from the aussie duds ?

>armed Koreans fighting in the near east
Is this the first time this happened since the hyperwar?
The guy filming is acting like a Yank tourist what the frick
This guy will literally drown in pussy juice once he gets home.
Why did so many leave before the offensive? Are these adrenaline junkies being replaced with actual Western military?
because it's been six months, some have left, why is that a surprise?

Probably this , the last time a jap was in combat was when Jihadi John was lopping their heads off .

Six months is a long time, easy to get an injury, even if not directly wounded in battle
Their MRAP needs keys!?
Goddammit Matt, leaving your fricking rifle.
A whole bunch of snoozefest.

Afghanistan was not a real war. It was a bunch of crayon eaters mag dumping mountains in the horizon and then calling in air support.
Another glasses operator added to the list .
>fought in Irpin
Ken has probably personally killed and lead teams that killed countless Russians
Frick fighting when your fifty must fricking hurt.

Yeah, Ken does seem like he's straight out of a movie character.
Instead, he'll be a persona non grata in Korea, and will probably never go back.
>Instead, he'll be a persona non grata in Korea, and will probably never go back.
nah he got back home a couple months ago . He's got friends in high places.
Why would Korea turn down a guy who has actual military experience?
At worst they'll just keep a lid on him and allow him to be a dual citizen, considering his training he's practically a dual US citizen already.
