    Usually I’d agree with you, but S Korea is in an unusual situation where they would actually get overrun without their army. They’re still technically at war, and N Korea does plenty of sabre rattling.

    That’s not a place like the US, where the military is mainly used for overseas adventures, they face real, external threats.
