I can already tell Harvey is shining in this series. He actually took this seriously from day one, interacted with other Korean recruits and cheered them on.
It's quite a different experience when you're forced to swim as a person who doesn't know how to. Something just clicks in your brain, helping you to survive. Something similar happened to me, where I will be left behind if I didnt swim across the river. The need to survive and not get left behind eats up the fear somehow.
fr! as someone who doesnt know how to swim, i admire his courage. i once tried to learn swimming with my friend (my friend's a swimming trainer) yet i got panicked everytime im underwater for more than 3 seconds. it's not that im out of breath. it just feels like my brain is sending danger signals even when my body is doing fine
I once had a friend who fell in a pool, sank to the bottom of the deep end, and thought, "I should try to get to the surface. . . But that's so much work. I think I'll just drown." Which turned out to be the right move. His body's natural buoyancy brought him back up and someone grabbed him and pulled him out. They asked why he didn't try to swim out, and he said, "I don't know. Maybe I'm just lazy."
He's in the safest place he could be for someone who can't swim. There are experienced combat divers in that pool, so he couldn't drown even if he wanted to.
I love that Harvey, Jayden, and Nati shine in this series. In the earlier light-hearted series, they are typically quieter and calmer so they're usually in the back but their maturity really comes through in this one. Jayden with his athleticism, jumping off a 5m, and swimming in deep water with no hesitation even though he doesn't know how to swim shows his self discipline. The respectful way that Harvey and Nati are speaking Korean, following directions, and socializing with the Korean soldiers is exemplary. They're all taking this boot camp seriously. These are outstanding young men!
Harvey seems like a very mature and respectful young man. He has always been quiet and underrated in the group, so it's nice to see his interpersonal skills here.
He's an observer and follows the situation. Observers often end up in the mum/dad role in a group when things go bad. They are the ones who usually stays back and goes with the flow, but takes charge when needed.
In these circumstances it is obvious that Harvey is very strong mentally, he wills himself to get used to things outside of his comfort zone. You could also tell he's more of a roll up his sleeves and get things done kinda person. Very mature and very grounded.
I thought too. if they were korean... they would have experienced hell. The DI is unusually lenient here. If one person laughs in the military, hundreds suffer please don't laugh.
He would of lasted 2 minutes in my day when we went night training with zero lights that's was hard-core night exercise and cave training lol 😆 with all the well trust me he would run
Can we give Jayden a big round of applause? He doesn't know how to swim but still proceeds to do all the exercises. I also love how Nati, Harvey, and Jayden seemed like they were taking the whole experience seriously. I think the others were laughing, maybe because they were nervous. They all did amazing!
Agreed, The laughing may have been disrespectful but it is understandable. Gotta reel that shit in. Especially when the navy has allowed such a disruption to their normal recruits.
Holy crap. The fact that Armand is telling his best friend to STFU is showing that Armand is stressed. This series is already going to be unlike what we've seen already.
Nah... he's always been that way. He always tell Max to shut up or Max is in the wrong. Kind of an a-hole really. And yeah, I knew that they are bffs since they were kids but still.
I don't want to assume anything but it's quite common for a popular and smart person, which I think Armand is, to behave like that: demanding, condescending, sensitive. I am probably reading too much into it based on short clips but I know some people who are like this.
@@anthonymc8361yeah, I think you are reading too much into it. We can’t assume or gauge someone based on a small clip. We also shouldn’t automatically assume someone is bad because they’re stressed or how they react under pressure.
He always stood out to me as someone who embodies the epitome of "kid who was raised right". Even in their previous korean trip he was always very polite and considerate.
Armand is Smart And Charismatic as well. Those are the types that attract opportunities to become Leaders while they are hopefully ably supported by guys who are upright as well but just doesn't like the heat of the limelight.
I’m curious to see how Armand will handle this experience. From what I remember he was head boy at their academy, and was held in a pretty high regard in terms of representing the school. They would often joke about him being the responsible one, but he is so completely out of his element here. Being someone that everyone has such high expectations of and not meeting them can really mess with someone’s mind. I wonder if that’s part of why he seems so nervous and uncomfortable. They all are, but he seems agitated in a way we haven’t seen before.
I'm like this. I'm a perfectionist and I truly have a hard time trying new things because I don't wanna fail at it, or never succeed (which I know is unrealistic). Most of the time I don't even try. I'm great academically and intellectually, but this kinda stuff would break me. I've had a stranger tell me I'm book smart but not street smart. lol
I can’t imagine doing military service in a country you don’t speak the language of and being filmed almost every hour. The amount of stress must be staggering. I’m worried for them but at the same time, cheering them on. This is a reminder: the guys might be filmed during their hardest moments and we should give them grace for whatever they might do/say.
@@LunarisArts It already is, friend of the channel Sam Hammington was on the South Korean reality TV show “Real Man” that puts celebrities in boot camp
Yeah, i tough at least they learn from korean reality show like Real Man, even its more entertaining side its still gave you pictures how its might gonna be. Its really pity that they aren't prepared before had, aside from physical check up they do
I hope there’s no hate comments towards the boys as this part of the series progresses. Let’s all remember that it’s easy for us, as viewers, to sit and watch and have opinions about how the boys handle the situation they are actually physically in. Of course, there are moments that are inappropriate and immature, but this is so far out of their comfort zones and people all have different ways of coping. I’m sure watching this back will be a lessons learned for the boys when watching how they interacted and behaved once they’re mentally and physically calm back home, but while they’re training, they are probably not fully aware of what they’re doing.
Agree, if i can be blunt here... They are literally little chicks being thrown in to the most hellish place in korea (arguably) with zero to little no clue about what was gonna happen. Its evil in some perspective but maybe different from another.
MAJOR appreciation for Natti (of course all the boys are trying their best) but Natti's here trying to speak as much korean as possible, and genuinely comes across like he's here for the full 20 months, and not just 4 days! Brava!!
@@Kkim0830 So true! Natti really shows his efforts in appreciating and willing to learn the language N Harvey n Jayden are also taking this seriously 😣 They've really shined in this series thus far
Well yeah, as a Korean, if you didn't help these British recruits in Navy, that kid would've gotten into trouble instead and probably would've been taken responsible if the Drill Instructor yelled at them lol. Without Camera, it would be way more worse.
Harvey giving his new found friend a boost of encouragement is such a good display of emotional intelligence. I applaud his sensitivity of his surroundings.
영국인임에도 한국 군대를 경험하겠다고 용기 있게 도전하는 ㅇ모습만으로도 우리 군대를 조롱하려는 의도가 아님은 명확히 보입니다. 첫 날인데다가 언어가 통하지 않아서 상황 판단이 더뎠을 가능성이 높습니다. 다음날 이 학생들이 군대가 이런곳임을 깨닫고 어떻게 변하는지. 또 동기들과 어떤 유대감을 보여줄지 이런 기대를 해야되는 상황인데... 한국 군인 군대 어떤 힘든 훈련을 받는지 얼마나 힘든지 알지만 아이들을 욕하는 건 옳지 않습니다. 첫날 단면만 보고...용기 있게 도전한 학생들한테 너무하지 않나요? 아예 언어도 통하지 않아 판단이 조금 느린걸로 보이는데 심지어 본인들의 스트레스도 화면에 잘 보이고요... 조금만 시야와 마음을 넓게 쓰셨으면 좋겠습니다.
It's okay. That's why they're there. They intend to feel the full experience and not to be treated specially, they already did with the headmaster and being only there for 4 days
Jayden, Nati, and Harvey are taking this experience so seriously. I love how they were also talking with the Korean recruits (and shout out to the young bilingual men who are in the squad!), making conversation. These three are really showing their resilience and maturity in this series!
shout out to Nati for treating the navy and the actual recruits with respect with his serious attitude. also impressed with how quickly he seemed to pick up on the instructions. and marching was on point 🫡✨
Knowing that Nati is not the biggest fan of physical activities, he’s surprisingly good at marching. He has a really good posture & rhythm when marching and it seems he’s not even trying hard 😂 I guess it just comes naturally for him
Yeah the other boys are low-key pissing me off of how they treat this like a joke. I know it's cultural differences but laughing at random times seems highly disrespectful
@@dakilangraikage9988 @hyunhun5156 people coming at armand for giggling, but he's obviously extremely stressed here. he's not being disrespectful, it's literally the situation. if he didn't understand how serious this was, he wouldn't be as stressed as he was throughout the video!
Harvey’s personality really shined here. Even under high stress, he is able to adapt and act accordingly, but when it’s time to have fun and loosen up, he is a funny guy and seems to easily get along with people. He struck conversations with the Korean recruits around him really naturally. I for one could never handle everything and adapt as well as him if I was placed under similar circumstances.
20번은 넘게 보고 있는데...ㅋㅋㅋ보면 볼수록 나티Nati가 진짜 진국이다. 나티는 제일 genuine person. 나티는 눈치도 빠르고 습득도 빠릅니다.Nati는 두뇌가 진짜 똑똑한 것 같아요. 게다가 진지해야 할 때 진지해서 멋있어요. 실제 군대에서 제일 이쁨받고 적응 잘 할 스타일입니다. 나티는 너무 멋있고 똑똑하네요.
Yeah the others are gonna get screwed over, I could tell they're gonna have a harder time considering their antics. Like damn boys calm it, someone can get seriously injured or punished there. Or worse.
You got that right. Harvey was the only person who shouted the slogans perfectly in Korean, except for Josh, and he is the only one taking this seriously. I appreciate him loads. If one person laughs in the military, hundreds suffer... please don't laugh. if they were korean... they would have experienced real hell. The DI is unusually lenient here.
i feel like Nati too. i'm most worried about Max, cz his class clown antics might put him in hot water if he doesn't cool it. this is why i was really nervous when they were told but said they were excited. i mean i'm not Korean or a soldier, but i took it that they'd be going to an actual boot camp. training for soldiers. i dont think they actually fully understood that 😅
Nati seems pretty serious… but i was dying inside because of Armand and Bobby. (Well i can’t know what to do all the time, mostly when they are depending of the translation)
Harvey and Nati were the only guys who shouted the slogans perfectly in Korean, except for Josh, and they are the only taking this seriously. I appreciate them loads.
As an army vet, the “slept on” hard part is staying focused to instruction for that long. Especially when you can’t understand what they’re saying, I would be dead tired lol. Mad respect Gentlemen!
I love Harvey, Jayden, and Nati getting their spotlight now! They're usually the quieter trio, so seeing them take this seriously and actually do well too makes me feel like a proud mom!
Jayden not knowing how to swim must have added so much more fear and intensity to this experience. I commend him so so much for going through with it all.
Is the same with Singapore naval diving unit. If you are posted to a naval position, everyone is expected to know how to swim at the end of basic military training. There is no lift jacket for us for basic platform dive at the swimming pool. Platform dive is to simulate jumping off a ship.
@@arsenal_84 excuse my dumb question, so for people who dont know how to swim, after all these training will they somehow came out able to swim? is there cases that they just still not able to swim?
@@fascienneskytten5497 yes, the instructors will kind of know the trainee's progress (non swimmers) and everyone in the platoon gets punish just because of guys who couldn't swim based on one for all and all for one motto.
the way this whole thing made armand display every kind of emotion we've never seen before shows that this is VERY real. he got annoyed, nervous, pissed, clueless, agitated. i bet this is the farthest he has ever been from his comfort zone and his behaviour is completely understandable.
Honestly I think the mindset the boys have currently is quite disrespectful to any of the Korean men that are conscripted. I hope their attitudes improve in the next episode we see
its the same with all countries that people have to do mandatory military service in imo. the kids don't know what to expect going in and have to adapt to whatever situation asap. experienced that myself the hard way lol
@@ingothitrust5248 I’m glad the 3 of them are shining here. Armand, max and even bobby with his mom all have separate contents in this channel. We need more harvey, jayden and nati focus.
It's a bit unfair to assume the rest are not taking the training seriously. It's like saying they are acting that way out of malice and being purposely disrespectful, it was just day 1, all the laughing and giggling is probably just them coping with the pressure. It was hard to watch, yes, but I'm sure they will act differently in the rest of the series.
It is only through difficult times the true nature of a person comes out. I hope we get to see Armand mature throughout the process. You can tell that his reaction to all the stress is: - Nervous laughter at the situation he's in - Complete blanking out (lots of scenes he's just staring off) - Venting his annoyance on Max I do hope koreans understand that this is very stressful and new for a non-korean teen from a culture where not all boys go to the military. He is in no way disrespecting the Korean military by laughing, but among all the boys, I think he is the most ill-prepared.
tbh i think i've only seen westerners react with laughter in events of stress but never from asians hence why koreans must see it as a sign of disrespect rather than a pure physical reaction. i don't know why that's the case but i always thought it must be some sort of inherent cultural thing.
@@user-hs1dd4tc7t It's probably because things tend to be more lax in discipline in Western countries and upbringing. Koreans learn very early on in their upbringing usually that if you laugh out of nervousness when your dad or mom is chastising you it's only going to lead to a harsher punishment.
@@user-hs1dd4tc7tmy Japanese friends laugh when they're uncomfortable about a conversation or when they're nervous but I( also asian) do not do so. I honestly think laughing off stress is a universal response, it's just that coping mechanism varies from person to person.
Hi guys, First of all, I want to say I'm really proud of you all. I served in ROK Navy from 2019 to 2021, joining as the 657th. This video makes me reflecting my old days from boot camp cuz I had same training at the same camp. I give you guys my regards and you all did great, thanks.
It's one of the most intense episodes I’ve seen from the British Students series. Joining any military boot camp is not easy. It takes a lot of physical and mental effort to do it. It’s one of the best episodes
Truth is base on what i watched, Navy went real gentle with these kids as this is just a short term boots camp for TH-cam : Ex. If any trainees laugh in real navy boots camp, whole group get multiple rounds of punishment until ABSOLUTELY NO ONE LAUGH then they go into their training of the day. But these kids got only scary stare and gentle warning. I see all Koreans are screaming in comment section for these kids' well-being and possibly ptsd 😅
Yes, I love how naturally he connects with others and he is also very considerate with his language. He doesn't make his sentences too simplified but as a non native I feel like he takes into account that he speaks to someone who speaks English as a second language and he speaks clearly and doesn't use too difficult vocabulary. This is very sweet and considerate of him!
Harvey, Natti ans Jayden Impressed me in this series, their maturity shine the most. I admire these 3 for keeping up with the instructions so well and their level of camaraderie is insane
@@jsly3468아무리 첫날이라지만 말 안 듣고 웃고 떠들고 자세 흐트러지고 훈련도 가라로 하고 난리 났는데 이거 원래였으면 교관 분노 폭발해서 욕하고 소리 지르고 기합 엄청 받았음. 아무리 군대가 좋아졌어도 군대는 군대야 미필들도 눈치챌만큼 대놓고 편의 봐주는데 영상 보고도 모른다는 건 그냥 군인 억까가 하고 싶은 거야 ㅋㅋ
After seeing Armand and Max shine in the other series, it’s so interesting to see Nati, Jayden and Harvey shine here with such differing personalities to Armand and Max. All the boys have their strong points and I imagine this is a lot on Armand and Max who are naturally bubbly people at all times. I guess what I’m saying is that I’m loving seeing the other boys and their determination here. Their willingness to embrace and take seriously every aspect of training regardless of how hard it is, is really admiring! I really hope the other boys will get a chance to go back to Korea for a fun trip after how serious this seems to be!
Right from the get-go, Armand and Max were my least favourite of all the boys, and I actually preferred Nati, Jayden and Harvey because I like quiet people who don’t feel like they have to be the centre of attention all the time. I think it’s easy to show a positive, charming side when you are having a good time, but you are more likely to see the real person in a tough situation. I hope the giggling and messing around stops too because I think it’s disrespectful to their Korean hosts.
thank you for pointing this out, people are certainly different and may shine differently. i think it's cool that we can see the process and the boys' growth in general
Nati and Harvey seems to be adjusting really well! From interacting with the Korean recruits, doing the chants in a loud voice before jumping, and answering the DI.
The way Nati always seem genuinely interested in Korean culture and language every episode, i hope he gets more screentime. I'm also very surprised seeing Harvey's seriousness and interaction with the recruits this episode. Love seeing him shine and mad props to Jayden for doing that jump 👍 Never seen Armand this stressed it's hilarious 😂
Honestly I think Harvey's gonna be the surprise shiner in this series. I think he kinda got muted as part of a duo during the original Fulham boys run, but got a lot more interested when he and Nati were alone for that one meal for doing the best on the test.
Definitely. I remember their first Korean trip when Harvey would take the initiative to thank those around him and go talk to the restaurant owners. I'm not surprised to see him thriving here.
I love how a lot of people are acknowledging some of the boys that have been overshadowed before, like Nati, Harvey, and Jayden. They definitely deserve it. I feel like this series will shed the light on parts we’ve never seen of everyone.
I absolutely adore Harvey, he is so kind and friendly towards the other recruits. Stand up guy 🥹 love to see him have genuine conversations with them at lunch! 16:36
Harvey is so charming in this series. We can really see how much of a team player he is in how he wants to encourage the Korean recruits as well acknowledging that they will have to be there for nearly 2 years. Nati also for continuing to show passion for learning Korean and fully immersing himself in his surroundings. And Jayden for being willing to literally dive in and try his best. This will be tough on the boys and I’m curious to see how much the boys will change in such a short time.
이번편 보면서 국가의 상황이 얼마나 개인에게 큰 영향을 주는지 크게 느꼈습니다. 영국 청년들이 참여해서 감사한 것보다 우리 청년들이 수십년간 청춘을 바쳐 온갖 고난과 어려움을 이겨낸 것이 가슴 아프고, 또 슬픕니다. 이런 나라에 태어난 것이 원망스러울 수도 있는데 묵묵히 견뎌내는 그대들의 청춘과 고난에 응원과 감사를 보냅니다.
"I can't believe they won't let me keep my teddy bear" "They took Bobby's teddy bear" that killed me 😭😭 Did they think it was going to be like a summer camp or something?
@@harvestmoon_autumnsky They do! I was just mentioning that it's a special item to him. Even if it weren't, there's nothing truly wrong with having a stuffed animal friend to sleep with.
@@vin2164it’s about standardising every soldier’s possessions, and only having the minimum. in the military everyone’s the same, no soldier is supposed to be unique therefore everyone will have the same items issued to them and unnecessary items will be taken
Mate…this is a proper rollercoaster of emotions. Max stressing, Armand losing it, bobby getting emotional…think this the first time anyone cussed not just in the series…but the whole channel. This episode made me stressed.
That's the hard part of being in the military. Having bunch of people who you dont know giving different reactions of emotions in a single room. The training you get used to, but people you meet is just luck.
@@foxrain4791 Korean Military itself is already stressful, then they have to deal with culture and language barrier in a foreign land. It's gotta be extra extra stressful...Not to mention Josh and Ollie left them on their own.
Harvey and Nati are so mature. I suddenly become a bit emotional because I remember seeing them being a high schoolers from the start of the series 🥹❤️
I love how Harvey is making friends with fellow trainees. But all of the boys are really trying hard for their first day and I can feel the pressure and tension even from watching them.
Their true colours are revealed in this episode. Emotions were heightened and they were tested mentally here. Super happy that Nati, Harvey & Jayden received the recognition they deserved. I was so nervous for all of them. Above all, this was an entirely new experience for the British boys, major respect towards them for saying YES to this intense bootcamp/training. And kudos to Lee, Hong, Nam & Kim who assisted them all the way. Phewh~
Harvey, Nati, and Jayden are absolutely crushing it! The respect these three have for the korean culture is shining so bright. Hope the other boys pull through in this aspect, realizing its not just "reality tv" but a way of life that they are getting to experience.
As much as I love Max throughout the series of BH but HARVEY showed sincerity of learning this military training. He adapted so well and he gets along well with Koreans too. He's getting information to prepare himself even more.
Thank you everyone...i find this truely fascinating, so so interesting and multi faceted. Thank you to all behind the scenes, families too... BBC could learn a lot! (But then when couldn't they!)
The DI was being extremely patient and lenient with them in the beginning, but I’m sure towards the end, they must’ve cut out a lot of footage because by the end of the video you can see Armand’s face and he looks absolutely terrified and stressed. I’m gonna assume the DI got fed up and finally yelled at Armand for acting foolish all day. Even the Korean soldiers who were helping translate seemed very stressed too because they would also be reprimanded for not getting the translation across. Very tough situation.
@@alberthwang2900 They should've showed it imo, anyone from the UK that has done public services knows if you don't take military exercises seriously, you're going to get bolocked
@@ImmaBeAGurlnah i don’t think they’d post that for armand. no one would want a video of themselves being yelled at personally by a general posted online.
@@ImmaBeAGurl there’s a sudden changes video content for the membership because of the military law. They have to release all the videos in the military boot camp for the public. So we didn’t get that much footage from the actual time while they’re training. The videos that have been uploaded so far are when their hair was cut, the first gym training, the last meal before boot camp and 1 minute personal video from each members. That’s it from now. I hope they will show more footage for BTS videos later.
@@jessicaregina1956 all of your recent comments on this channel are obnoxious. I hope you love yourself down the line in your life and are happy. Stop spreading ugliness. There’s too much of it
harvey being the most serious out of all the boys while trying to keep a straight facce, must be hard, while armand and the other boys around him were laughing he did his best not to and kept a serious face, and bobby being like that was my girlfreind's teddy bear was so cute
Guys this is the best series u guys did so far! To experience what korean military/navy culture is the one that might be the best memories for yall and I have so much respect for that. Not everyone would like to try this agony experience. ❤ mad respect!
와 진짜 근데 조쉬님을 비롯해서 영국남자팀분들… 진짜 볼때마다 새롭고 대형 컨텐츠에.. 진짜 애들 통솔하랴 콘텐츠 기획하랴 가는곳도 동의 다 받아야하고 진짜 만만치 않을텐데 정말 대단하십니다 ㅠㅠㅠ 심지어 조쉬님이랑 교장선생님도 함께라니 ㅠㅠ 어른들이 옆에서 같이 해주면 체력적으로나 정신적으로나 힘이 될듯 ㅠㅠ
everyone was out of their comfort zones but man i love how harvey handled this. he didn't play around since the first time they got there. also the way he interacted with other recruits, even cheered them was heartwarming
Its scary being in a completely new and unknown situation like this, kudos to all the boys for going through this experience for us to see. (Hope armand feels a bit more better later, he seemed nervous, stressed and anxious, Who wouldnt be in that situation)
People react in different ways and Armand laughing is a nervous laugh. Not understanding what is being said does not help either. Respect to all the boys for taking part and doing their best. You all shine in your own way! Rooting for you all and also the new Korean recruits!!! Fighting!
This is their first day &they don’t understand the language so of course they still adjusting! Just watch with more time Armand will adjust completely &be perfect for it! Also it’s normal reaction to laugh during stressful situations like this even psychiatrists said it ! Also they are teens and they know it’s just a show & want to provide entertainment &drama and that it’s not that serious it’s not real military ! If it’s serious and real military they’d take it 10000% seriously like they were serious in school and university
Can I (ex-lieutenant in the canadian forces) just say , as a french canadian who's understanding of english was better than the boys' korean understanding when i did my basic (in english), the language barrier is a HUGE factor here for their experience. Like doing something difficult is hard. Doing something difficult while not having the same level of understanding of what needs to be done is hell. Good on them for just straight-up getting into it.
Dear Bobby’s mum, you’ve raised such an extraordinary, strong yet vulnerable young man. A man who loves his mum this much and translates that into his life is all I ever want for my young boy. Hats off to you. I know he’s made you proud ❤
Hope she sees this. Being a mum is no walk in the park, and I commend her for being able to raise one who turned out, from the looks of it, to be a kind gentleman
I cried, you get one phone call to let your mom or dad you made it to boot camp, all the time the RDCs are yelling!! I cried in bed, in the bathroom and I cried in silence. But serving in the Navy was the best thing I could ever have done. I learned a lifetime skill I could use in the civilian world.
This is cool af hands down my favorite little series on this channel so far like THIS is really cool not just for the entertainment value but it's awesome knowing this is an experience they'll definitely remember forever and even though it's only 4 days they'll still learn a lot of lessons from this and that's the most amazing part of this little series to me And the fact that the jolly staff left them alone to be independent was genuinely in my opinion an incredible idea so shout out to whoever came up with that which I think Josh said Luke came up with the idea so shout out to Luke
Props to Harvey, Natti and Jayden for taking this seriously and also stepping up to the plate. I can't swim either and am not at all physically strong. I would have been terrified. But at least Jayden is physically strong, and Natti has had a little bit of training, so he is mentally strong.
props to everyone especially to Jayden, Natti, and Harvey. I know the giggling is a huge topic of discussion now but I think the boys just express stress differently. please understand them
I cannot imagine the amount of paperwork and phone calls and emails they had to do just to get approval to film this inside a military base. Way more ambitious than the twins going to an army base for like three days.
Harvey definitely stood out the most in this episode, we've seen him kinda on the quite side before but here he's the most serious one and he even kept making an interaction with the koreans!
Having Josh, Ollie and the rest of the adults taken away was a good decision since they've been acting like a shield for the boys. Now the boys are fully independent and know they aren't gonna have someone to defend them all the time it's made them realise how serious boot camp actually is.
Maybe. The bunks camera reduce their time to be at ease after training though. Immediate lights out must've been confusing 😢 That said, that camera might be their way to safeguard them. Hope things eventually turns out well for them!
@@isnoozeulose Look the Korean Army isn't going to abuse them or harm them, they know this is all for a show and those in charge are aware but they will be treated mainly like normal recruits
Nah, it was just an excuse to sleep at a comfortable hotel rather than be there any longer. None of the adults defended the boys, so what are you talking about they just told them to be quiet and it was mainly the translator calling them out on their behavior and saying they could get called out if they don’t act respectful. In my opinion it was rude & unprofessional that Josh told the boys literally last minute he wasn’t gonna be sleeping at the camp like them for the week, even though he’s been rambling how he’s gonna go through the whole process like the rest of the boys yet manages to skip the part where he sleeps somewhere more comfortable for the week.
Binge watching this series and i can't stop thinking if this is just basic training, then what happens in combat or the real training. This is mind blowing, Kudos to Korean Englishman and the Boys.
I can already tell Harvey is shining in this series. He actually took this seriously from day one, interacted with other Korean recruits and cheered them on.
I agree 😊 I can see that Harvey can adapt quickly in whatever environment he's in. I really like him in this series. He's probably my favorite 😂
I know right? He's so chill but also so serious. I think he's stressed too but always spreads positive energy. Harvey is so matured
@@nilong2817 He's got that quiet confidence in him which is admirable.
He’s so composed
Certainly.
bro i’m so proud of jayden. not knowing how to swim and still doing a 5 metre dive is courageous. the fear of drowning paralyzes people.
Not knowing how to swim does not mean he has hydrophobia. The "fear of drowning" does not paralyze people - it is the very reason that they swim.
It's quite a different experience when you're forced to swim as a person who doesn't know how to. Something just clicks in your brain, helping you to survive. Something similar happened to me, where I will be left behind if I didnt swim across the river. The need to survive and not get left behind eats up the fear somehow.
fr! as someone who doesnt know how to swim, i admire his courage. i once tried to learn swimming with my friend (my friend's a swimming trainer) yet i got panicked everytime im underwater for more than 3 seconds. it's not that im out of breath. it just feels like my brain is sending danger signals even when my body is doing fine
I once had a friend who fell in a pool, sank to the bottom of the deep end, and thought, "I should try to get to the surface. . . But that's so much work. I think I'll just drown."
Which turned out to be the right move. His body's natural buoyancy brought him back up and someone grabbed him and pulled him out. They asked why he didn't try to swim out, and he said, "I don't know. Maybe I'm just lazy."
He's in the safest place he could be for someone who can't swim. There are experienced combat divers in that pool, so he couldn't drown even if he wanted to.
I love that Harvey, Jayden, and Nati shine in this series. In the earlier light-hearted series, they are typically quieter and calmer so they're usually in the back but their maturity really comes through in this one. Jayden with his athleticism, jumping off a 5m, and swimming in deep water with no hesitation even though he doesn't know how to swim shows his self discipline. The respectful way that Harvey and Nati are speaking Korean, following directions, and socializing with the Korean soldiers is exemplary. They're all taking this boot camp seriously. These are outstanding young men!
I absolutely agree. They seem more focused and mature.
I got a feeling that they're gonna be the MVP in these series.
Especially Nati, I don't know why, but I got this expectation for him.
Agree. They took it seriously as well.
Totally agree! They are my fav since the highschooler series started, but I even like them more after this episode! Respect
Agree. Nati has through all the british student episodes been a real level-headed person and seems really genuine.
Bobby saying "Thank You" killed me lol... and Josh trying not to laugh.
🤣😂🤣😂
I burst out laughing the moment that happened😂😂
the music stopping as well😭
Harvey seems like a very mature and respectful young man. He has always been quiet and underrated in the group, so it's nice to see his interpersonal skills here.
True, the boys character was more shown now because of these extreme circumstances. I have to say Harvey, Nati, and Max was doing the best.
He's an observer and follows the situation. Observers often end up in the mum/dad role in a group when things go bad. They are the ones who usually stays back and goes with the flow, but takes charge when needed.
Yea, Harvey found his calling here. He looks so natural in the military setting. He fits right in
In these circumstances it is obvious that Harvey is very strong mentally, he wills himself to get used to things outside of his comfort zone. You could also tell he's more of a roll up his sleeves and get things done kinda person. Very mature and very grounded.

Same! I sometimes cannot control my laughter in serious situation. I couldn't stop laughing at my teacher's mum funeral! It was hell controlling it
Same I hate serious things 😂😂
He would of lasted 2 minutes in my day when we went night training with zero lights that's was hard-core night exercise and cave training lol 😆 with all the well trust me he would run
Can we give Jayden a big round of applause? He doesn't know how to swim but still proceeds to do all the exercises. I also love how Nati, Harvey, and Jayden seemed like they were taking the whole experience seriously. I think the others were laughing, maybe because they were nervous. They all did amazing!

Agreed, The laughing may have been disrespectful but it is understandable. Gotta reel that shit in. Especially when the navy has allowed such a disruption to their normal recruits.
Holy crap. The fact that Armand is telling his best friend to STFU is showing that Armand is stressed. This series is already going to be unlike what we've seen already.
Well they are gonna experience lite manhood within the 4 days, so the wiser ones will stand out... the rest the bend nail to hammer
Armand is so far out of his comfort zone man, and it is what i like about KEman because because the footage is so raw
Nah... he's always been that way. He always tell Max to shut up or Max is in the wrong. Kind of an a-hole really. And yeah, I knew that they are bffs since they were kids but still.
I don't want to assume anything but it's quite common for a popular and smart person, which I think Armand is, to behave like that: demanding, condescending, sensitive. I am probably reading too much into it based on short clips but I know some people who are like this.
@@anthonymc8361yeah, I think you are reading too much into it. We can’t assume or gauge someone based on a small clip. We also shouldn’t automatically assume someone is bad because they’re stressed or how they react under pressure.
It feels like this brings out a new side of Harvey. He seems super focused, considerate, and respectful. Props to him!
For real I kinda expect Armand to be the one who's like that. But apparently it's Harvey, so cool! Nati is great too!
He always stood out to me as someone who embodies the epitome of "kid who was raised right". Even in their previous korean trip he was always very polite and considerate.
Harvey and Nati are the smart and respectful one
Armand is Smart And Charismatic as well.
Those are the types that attract opportunities to become Leaders while they are hopefully ably supported by guys who are upright as well but just doesn't like the heat of the limelight.
On the previous trip he did the best in most of the challenges. He always stood out as respectful, but also having a quiet competitive edge.
I’m curious to see how Armand will handle this experience. From what I remember he was head boy at their academy, and was held in a pretty high regard in terms of representing the school. They would often joke about him being the responsible one, but he is so completely out of his element here. Being someone that everyone has such high expectations of and not meeting them can really mess with someone’s mind. I wonder if that’s part of why he seems so nervous and uncomfortable. They all are, but he seems agitated in a way we haven’t seen before.
He excel academically but not on the sport & practical skills
Hes the weakest link in this kind of situation
Yeah I agree, he seemed really under pressure. Ngl I was quiet surprised how he acted. That was very unnatural.
I'm like this. I'm a perfectionist and I truly have a hard time trying new things because I don't wanna fail at it, or never succeed (which I know is unrealistic). Most of the time I don't even try. I'm great academically and intellectually, but this kinda stuff would break me. I've had a stranger tell me I'm book smart but not street smart. lol
@@myspinky That's not correct at all lol.
I can’t imagine doing military service in a country you don’t speak the language of and being filmed almost every hour. The amount of stress must be staggering. I’m worried for them but at the same time, cheering them on. This is a reminder: the guys might be filmed during their hardest moments and we should give them grace for whatever they might do/say.
Kinda now waiting for when major broadcast channels will take this concept as a new reality tv thing.
@@LunarisArts It already is, friend of the channel Sam Hammington was on the South Korean reality TV show “Real Man” that puts celebrities in boot camp
오늘 훈련이 훈련이였습니까? 첫날이라 적응시간이였다고 봅니다. 앞으로 더 힘든 날들이 될것입니다.
They already have one. It’s called “Real Man” Blackpink Lisa appeared on this
Yeah, i tough at least they learn from korean reality show like Real Man, even its more entertaining side its still gave you pictures how its might gonna be. Its really pity that they aren't prepared before had, aside from physical check up they do
I hope there’s no hate comments towards the boys as this part of the series progresses. Let’s all remember that it’s easy for us, as viewers, to sit and watch and have opinions about how the boys handle the situation they are actually physically in. Of course, there are moments that are inappropriate and immature, but this is so far out of their comfort zones and people all have different ways of coping. I’m sure watching this back will be a lessons learned for the boys when watching how they interacted and behaved once they’re mentally and physically calm back home, but while they’re training, they are probably not fully aware of what they’re doing.
인정
agree
I SECOND THIS.
Agree, if i can be blunt here... They are literally little chicks being thrown in to the most hellish place in korea (arguably) with zero to little no clue about what was gonna happen. Its evil in some perspective but maybe different from another.

Haha Nati’s bit at the end “why am I lying down like a pencil in my bed?” 😂😂
MAJOR appreciation for Natti (of course all the boys are trying their best) but Natti's here trying to speak as much korean as possible, and genuinely comes across like he's here for the full 20 months, and not just 4 days! Brava!!

@@Kkim0830
So true! Natti really shows his efforts in appreciating and willing to learn the language
N Harvey n Jayden are also taking this seriously 😣 They've really shined in this series thus far
That one Korean kid in their team is the MVP man, helped all of them get situated, even carried in the excercises
Well yeah, as a Korean, if you didn't help these British recruits in Navy, that kid would've gotten into trouble instead and probably would've been taken responsible if the Drill Instructor yelled at them lol.
Without Camera, it would be way more worse.
Harvey giving his new found friend a boost of encouragement is such a good display of emotional intelligence. I applaud his sensitivity of his surroundings.

Jayden, Nati, and Harvey are taking this experience so seriously. I love how they were also talking with the Korean recruits (and shout out to the young bilingual men who are in the squad!), making conversation. These three are really showing their resilience and maturity in this series!
shout out to Nati for treating the navy and the actual recruits with respect with his serious attitude. also impressed with how quickly he seemed to pick up on the instructions.
and marching was on point 🫡✨
Knowing that Nati is not the biggest fan of physical activities, he’s surprisingly good at marching. He has a really good posture & rhythm when marching and it seems he’s not even trying hard 😂 I guess it just comes naturally for him
he did say he was in cadets, so that helped
Yeah the other boys are low-key pissing me off of how they treat this like a joke. I know it's cultural differences but laughing at random times seems highly disrespectful
I think he has a quiet, intelligent and quite serious demeanour so he put his all into it
@@dakilangraikage9988 @hyunhun5156 people coming at armand for giggling, but he's obviously extremely stressed here. he's not being disrespectful, it's literally the situation. if he didn't understand how serious this was, he wouldn't be as stressed as he was throughout the video!
Harvey’s personality really shined here. Even under high stress, he is able to adapt and act accordingly, but when it’s time to have fun and loosen up, he is a funny guy and seems to easily get along with people. He struck conversations with the Korean recruits around him really naturally. I for one could never handle everything and adapt as well as him if I was placed under similar circumstances.

I knew Harvey is the only one who is actually taking this seriously 😭 when everyone were laughing, he was the only who stayed still.
Yeah the others are gonna get screwed over, I could tell they're gonna have a harder time considering their antics. Like damn boys calm it, someone can get seriously injured or punished there. Or worse.
You got that right. Harvey was the only person who shouted the slogans perfectly in Korean, except for Josh, and he is the only one taking this seriously. I appreciate him loads. If one person laughs in the military, hundreds suffer... please don't laugh. if they were korean... they would have experienced real hell. The DI is unusually lenient here.
I'd say Nati and Jayden seem to be taking it seriously too
i feel like Nati too. i'm most worried about Max, cz his class clown antics might put him in hot water if he doesn't cool it. this is why i was really nervous when they were told but said they were excited. i mean i'm not Korean or a soldier, but i took it that they'd be going to an actual boot camp. training for soldiers. i dont think they actually fully understood that 😅

Is the same with Singapore naval diving unit. If you are posted to a naval position, everyone is expected to know how to swim at the end of basic military training. There is no lift jacket for us for basic platform dive at the swimming pool. Platform dive is to simulate jumping off a ship.

the way this whole thing made armand display every kind of emotion we've never seen before shows that this is VERY real. he got annoyed, nervous, pissed, clueless, agitated. i bet this is the farthest he has ever been from his comfort zone and his behaviour is completely understandable.
To think that’s the mindset of 99% these young men who are forced to do this for upto 20months
hes a bit of a softy
In a serious position requires a serious mindset.
Honestly I think the mindset the boys have currently is quite disrespectful to any of the Korean men that are conscripted. I hope their attitudes improve in the next episode we see
its the same with all countries that people have to do mandatory military service in imo. the kids don't know what to expect going in and have to adapt to whatever situation asap. experienced that myself the hard way lol
Nati, Jayden, and Harvey caught my attention entirely for this series.
Harvey is literally the best . Also props to jaden and nati for taking it seriously

@@ya.02 Yes because these three are mostly the quiet ones . So it's finally time for them to shine in the series
It's a bit unfair to assume the rest are not taking the training seriously. It's like saying they are acting that way out of malice and being purposely disrespectful, it was just day 1, all the laughing and giggling is probably just them coping with the pressure. It was hard to watch, yes, but I'm sure they will act differently in the rest of the series.
It is only through difficult times the true nature of a person comes out. I hope we get to see Armand mature throughout the process. You can tell that his reaction to all the stress is:
- Nervous laughter at the situation he's in
- Complete blanking out (lots of scenes he's just staring off)
- Venting his annoyance on Max
I do hope koreans understand that this is very stressful and new for a non-korean teen from a culture where not all boys go to the military. He is in no way disrespecting the Korean military by laughing, but among all the boys, I think he is the most ill-prepared.
tbh i think i've only seen westerners react with laughter in events of stress but never from asians hence why koreans must see it as a sign of disrespect rather than a pure physical reaction. i don't know why that's the case but i always thought it must be some sort of inherent cultural thing.
@@user-hs1dd4tc7t It's probably because things tend to be more lax in discipline in Western countries and upbringing. Koreans learn very early on in their upbringing usually that if you laugh out of nervousness when your dad or mom is chastising you it's only going to lead to a harsher punishment.

Yes. Laughing response looks very weird from my Asian viewpoint. Koreans may regard it as some kind of provocation.
@@user-hs1dd4tc7tmy Japanese friends laugh when they're uncomfortable about a conversation or when they're nervous but I( also asian) do not do so. I honestly think laughing off stress is a universal response, it's just that coping mechanism varies from person to person.

Hi guys, First of all, I want to say I'm really proud of you all. I served in ROK Navy from 2019 to 2021, joining as the 657th.
This video makes me reflecting my old days from boot camp cuz I had same training at the same camp.
I give you guys my regards and you all did great, thanks.
It's one of the most intense episodes I’ve seen from the British Students series. Joining any military boot camp is not easy. It takes a lot of physical and mental effort to do it. It’s one of the best episodes
Truth is base on what i watched, Navy went real gentle with these kids as this is just a short term boots camp for TH-cam : Ex. If any trainees laugh in real navy boots camp, whole group get multiple rounds of punishment until ABSOLUTELY NO ONE LAUGH then they go into their training of the day. But these kids got only scary stare and gentle warning. I see all Koreans are screaming in comment section for these kids' well-being and possibly ptsd 😅
Harvey is clearly an encourager, connector, and a mentor...look forward to seeing what he does with his life in the future
Yes, I love how naturally he connects with others and he is also very considerate with his language. He doesn't make his sentences too simplified but as a non native I feel like he takes into account that he speaks to someone who speaks English as a second language and he speaks clearly and doesn't use too difficult vocabulary. This is very sweet and considerate of him!

After seeing Armand and Max shine in the other series, it’s so interesting to see Nati, Jayden and Harvey shine here with such differing personalities to Armand and Max. All the boys have their strong points and I imagine this is a lot on Armand and Max who are naturally bubbly people at all times. I guess what I’m saying is that I’m loving seeing the other boys and their determination here. Their willingness to embrace and take seriously every aspect of training regardless of how hard it is, is really admiring! I really hope the other boys will get a chance to go back to Korea for a fun trip after how serious this seems to be!
i think Armand needs to adapt, but gonna be amongst the best later on
you're so on point! They do shine so much in this series
Right from the get-go, Armand and Max were my least favourite of all the boys, and I actually preferred Nati, Jayden and Harvey because I like quiet people who don’t feel like they have to be the centre of attention all the time. I think it’s easy to show a positive, charming side when you are having a good time, but you are more likely to see the real person in a tough situation. I hope the giggling and messing around stops too because I think it’s disrespectful to their Korean hosts.
thank you for pointing this out, people are certainly different and may shine differently. i think it's cool that we can see the process and the boys' growth in general

Never seen Armand this stressed it's hilarious 😂

Harvey is so charming in this series. We can really see how much of a team player he is in how he wants to encourage the Korean recruits as well acknowledging that they will have to be there for nearly 2 years.
Nati also for continuing to show passion for learning Korean and fully immersing himself in his surroundings.
And Jayden for being willing to literally dive in and try his best.
This will be tough on the boys and I’m curious to see how much the boys will change in such a short time.
한국의 군 복무기간이 1년6개월이 된 것은 비교적 최근의 일이다.. 대부분은 2년을 보냈으며 장년층은 3년이 넘게 보낸 사람도 많다...이렇게 군대에서 오랜 시간 보내다보니 군대식 문화라는 게 전반적으로 퍼져있다.

"I can't believe they won't let me keep my teddy bear" "They took Bobby's teddy bear" that killed me 😭😭 Did they think it was going to be like a summer camp or something?

Mate…this is a proper rollercoaster of emotions. Max stressing, Armand losing it, bobby getting emotional…think this the first time anyone cussed not just in the series…but the whole channel. This episode made me stressed.
I noticed that too. I figured since they're not at Fulham anymore they don't have to mind their language, but they must be stressed too.
That's the hard part of being in the military. Having bunch of people who you dont know giving different reactions of emotions in a single room.
The training you get used to, but people you meet is just luck.
@@foxrain4791 Korean Military itself is already stressful, then they have to deal with culture and language barrier in a foreign land. It's gotta be extra extra stressful...Not to mention Josh and Ollie left them on their own.
Harvey and Nati are so mature. I suddenly become a bit emotional because I remember seeing them being a high schoolers from the start of the series 🥹❤️
I love how Harvey is making friends with fellow trainees. But all of the boys are really trying hard for their first day and I can feel the pressure and tension even from watching them.
Their true colours are revealed in this episode. Emotions were heightened and they were tested mentally here.
Super happy that Nati, Harvey & Jayden received the recognition they deserved.
I was so nervous for all of them.
Above all, this was an entirely new experience for the British boys, major respect towards them for saying YES to this intense bootcamp/training.
And kudos to Lee, Hong, Nam & Kim who assisted them all the way.
Phewh~
Giving boys a day in paradise just to send them to hellish training is wild
But thats what most Koreans actually do lmao. A genuine experience remade the way I see it.
is foul* LOL
the over use of the word "wild" is stupid
basically my life in korea rn
@@liamjohnson2474 that's wild
Harvey, Nati, and Jayden are absolutely crushing it! The respect these three have for the korean culture is shining so bright. Hope the other boys pull through in this aspect, realizing its not just "reality tv" but a way of life that they are getting to experience.
As much as I love Max throughout the series of BH but HARVEY showed sincerity of learning this military training. He adapted so well and he gets along well with Koreans too. He's getting information to prepare himself even more.
Harvey, Nati and Jayden
Yeeeesss
Thank you everyone...i find this truely fascinating, so so interesting and multi faceted. Thank you to all behind the scenes, families too... BBC could learn a lot! (But then when couldn't they!)
The DI was being extremely patient and lenient with them in the beginning, but I’m sure towards the end, they must’ve cut out a lot of footage because by the end of the video you can see Armand’s face and he looks absolutely terrified and stressed. I’m gonna assume the DI got fed up and finally yelled at Armand for acting foolish all day. Even the Korean soldiers who were helping translate seemed very stressed too because they would also be reprimanded for not getting the translation across. Very tough situation.
They mentioned that Armand got yelled at so hard, but didn't show it. Which was probably for the best. Explains why he was so stressed out at the end.
@@alberthwang2900 They should've showed it imo, anyone from the UK that has done public services knows if you don't take military exercises seriously, you're going to get bolocked
@@georgeoverton_ maybe its membership content? just a guess tho, not subscribed to the membership sadly
@@ImmaBeAGurlnah i don’t think they’d post that for armand. no one would want a video of themselves being yelled at personally by a general posted online.
@@ImmaBeAGurl there’s a sudden changes video content for the membership because of the military law. They have to release all the videos in the military boot camp for the public. So we didn’t get that much footage from the actual time while they’re training. The videos that have been uploaded so far are when their hair was cut, the first gym training, the last meal before boot camp and 1 minute personal video from each members. That’s it from now.
I hope they will show more footage for BTS videos later.
The respect I have for Mr smith joining these boys. I feel as if we’ve all had a teacher or someone that means a lot to them.

Harvey understood the assignment 👍
@@revinaque1342 yes he did

Harvey truly is a remarkable gentleman. He is well raised and always shown such humility.

Its scary being in a completely new and unknown situation like this, kudos to all the boys for going through this experience for us to see. (Hope armand feels a bit more better later, he seemed nervous, stressed and anxious, Who wouldnt be in that situation)
People react in different ways and Armand laughing is a nervous laugh. Not understanding what is being said does not help either. Respect to all the boys for taking part and doing their best. You all shine in your own way! Rooting for you all and also the new Korean recruits!!! Fighting!
화이팅!!^^
There's always one or two guys that are like that the first day or two. :D
I laugh for nervousness too… it is misunderstanding sometimes
This is their first day &they don’t understand the language so of course they still adjusting! Just watch with more time Armand will adjust completely &be perfect for it! Also it’s normal reaction to laugh during stressful situations like this even psychiatrists said it ! Also they are teens and they know it’s just a show & want to provide entertainment &drama and that it’s not that serious it’s not real military ! If it’s serious and real military they’d take it 10000% seriously like they were serious in school and university
Can I (ex-lieutenant in the canadian forces) just say , as a french canadian who's understanding of english was better than the boys' korean understanding when i did my basic (in english), the language barrier is a HUGE factor here for their experience. Like doing something difficult is hard. Doing something difficult while not having the same level of understanding of what needs to be done is hell. Good on them for just straight-up getting into it.
Dear Bobby’s mum, you’ve raised such an extraordinary, strong yet vulnerable young man. A man who loves his mum this much and translates that into his life is all I ever want for my young boy. Hats off to you. I know he’s made you proud ❤
Hope she sees this. Being a mum is no walk in the park, and I commend her for being able to raise one who turned out, from the looks of it, to be a kind gentleman
Forreal, it's so rare to see young gentleman who loves and being kind and dedicated to his mum and girlfriend at the same time.
I cried, you get one phone call to let your mom or dad you made it to boot camp, all the time the RDCs are yelling!!
I cried in bed, in the bathroom and I cried in silence.
But serving in the Navy was the best thing I could ever have done. I learned a lifetime skill I could use in the civilian world.
This is cool af hands down my favorite little series on this channel so far like THIS is really cool not just for the entertainment value but it's awesome knowing this is an experience they'll definitely remember forever and even though it's only 4 days they'll still learn a lot of lessons from this and that's the most amazing part of this little series to me
And the fact that the jolly staff left them alone to be independent was genuinely in my opinion an incredible idea so shout out to whoever came up with that which I think Josh said Luke came up with the idea so shout out to Luke
Kudos to Trainees Hong, Lee, Nam and Kim! Wishing you all a successful and safe completion of your training.
Props to Harvey, Natti and Jayden for taking this seriously and also stepping up to the plate.
I can't swim either and am not at all physically strong. I would have been terrified.
But at least Jayden is physically strong, and Natti has had a little bit of training, so he is mentally strong.
props to everyone especially to Jayden, Natti, and Harvey. I know the giggling is a huge topic of discussion now but I think the boys just express stress differently. please understand them
Whatever people say, these boys were so brave to try these things. Out of their shells and this experience will stay for a long time in their heart ❤️
I cannot imagine the amount of paperwork and phone calls and emails they had to do just to get approval to film this inside a military base.

Harvey definitely stood out the most in this episode, we've seen him kinda on the quite side before but here he's the most serious one and he even kept making an interaction with the koreans!
Harvey impressed me in this video , it’s a tough situation, fighting for all the military recruits who are giving up their youth for their military
Here for Harvey and Nati, ive always loved how they approached korean culture. Jayden was really brave here especially not knowing how to swim
HARVEY IS REALLY THE BEST, I APPRECIATE HIS ATTITUDE AND PERSONALITY SO MUCH!!! NATTI AND JAYDEN AS WELL
Having Josh, Ollie and the rest of the adults taken away was a good decision since they've been acting like a shield for the boys. Now the boys are fully independent and know they aren't gonna have someone to defend them all the time it's made them realise how serious boot camp actually is.
Maybe. The bunks camera reduce their time to be at ease after training though. Immediate lights out must've been confusing 😢
That said, that camera might be their way to safeguard them. Hope things eventually turns out well for them!
@@isnoozeulose Look the Korean Army isn't going to abuse them or harm them, they know this is all for a show and those in charge are aware but they will be treated mainly like normal recruits
Nah, it was just an excuse to sleep at a comfortable hotel rather than be there any longer. None of the adults defended the boys, so what are you talking about they just told them to be quiet and it was mainly the translator calling them out on their behavior and saying they could get called out if they don’t act respectful. In my opinion it was rude & unprofessional that Josh told the boys literally last minute he wasn’t gonna be sleeping at the camp like them for the week, even though he’s been rambling how he’s gonna go through the whole process like the rest of the boys yet manages to skip the part where he sleeps somewhere more comfortable for the week.
