Real Men 300 (진짜 사나이 300)

(A challenge to become an army officer...)

(at the Korea Army Academy at Yeongcheon.)

(The essential barrier to be commissioned as an army officer)

(Ranger training at the Huasan ranger training grounds)

(One who can't finish the ranger training...)

The Real Men 300.

They descend on a single rope from a dizzy rock face...

for the mountain field exercise.

(It's a fight against extreme fear that they must overcome.)

But it's one thing after another.

(Another crisis comes after the dangerous mountain field exercise.)

The terrorizing CBR training is waiting for them.

Will their future be bright?

(Will they become an army officer after overcoming the hard training?)

(Episode 5, Exceeding the Extreme Limitation)

- Confident in ranger training. - Confident in ranger training.

(They head to the training that is the highlight of ranger training.)

(The trainees don't know about Huasan.)

The Huasan ranger training grounds is located high to touch the sky.

As they climb endlessly along the mountain path,

the sky is becoming closer.

(They walk endlessly like they will go up to the sky.)

(The world is under their feet at the top of Huasan.)

What is that? Is that a lake or a river?

(An oddly shaped rock stands high boasting its splendor.)

The trainees arrive at a cliff...

that looks like it's standing on top of clouds.

(It's an overwhelming height like it stands on top of clouds.)

What kind of training will they do in this overwhelming view?

(The trainees hold their breath and stand in front of the cliff.)

The mountain field technique training is...

where you train to overcome rock faces or slopes...

with your bare hands or a rope.

R1 is where you descend vertically from a 34m height...

while facing the ground.

It's a training that enables you to descend.

In case you are exposed by an enemy force and need to descend swiftly,

you apply this technique.

You'll watch an experienced assistant demonstrate first.

Then you'll get into the training.

(He faces the ground at the height of 34m.)

1, 2...

1, 2...

- Proceeding with the demonstration. - Descend!

(He descends smoothly as if he's walking on ground.)

It was 34m high above the ground.

I never saw such a cliff from up close.

I have acrophobia,

and it's pretty bad.

Even my house isn't on a high floor.

I'm usually the type of person...

who never goes somewhere high and frightening.

It was so fearful that I wanted to...

run away back there.

- Did you watch it? - Yes, sir.

Will you be able to do it?

(Ever since they faced the chief instructor,)

(they haven't been able to speak up.)

Are you not confident?

- No, sir. - No, sir.

You'll be equipped with the gear.

The instructor will be helping you with the training.

And you'll count on yourselves.

If you trust these three aspects and proceed with the training,

anyone of you can pull this off nicely. Understood?

- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.

From now on, we will move to the practice site...

and get into the practice right away.

- Understood? - Yes, sir.

Left, face.

(They move to practice descending right away.)

- Confident in ranger training. - Confident in ranger training.

- Confident in ranger training. - Raise your voices.

(They arrive at the peak right under the sky.)

Under the instructors' control,

you'll start wearing the gear first.

Turn around.

Trainee 236.

(They have to depend on only one rope...)

(The descent training is becoming more real.)

Stay close together while you wait.

Yes, sir.

(They paradoxically face the extreme view in front of the extreme fear.)

Trainee 238, how do you feel to face forward?

It's such a magnificent view. It's amazing.

(They have to get the training done in this landscape.)

My legs are shaking.

We can't be bad at this.

We'll get hurt otherwise.

It's either do or die.

From now on,

we'll start proceeding with the training.

- Recover position. - Trainee 236, recover position.

- Go for it. - Let's do it.

Move forward to the instructor.

- Secure yourself. - Secure yourself.

(Step 1: Securing oneself to prevent from falling)

- Install your gear. - Install your gear.

(Step 2: Installing the gear necessary for the descent)

- Check the safety. - Check the safety.

- Do you feel the brake? - Yes, sir.

- Release yourself. - Release yourself.

Disconnect the rope and hitch it on the right.

Walk down towards the silver stick in front of you.

Walk down to there.

It's high.

Come across the rope.

(He's a step before the end of the cliff.)

Watch the nature in front of you.

(The mountain landscape is so beautiful regardless of fear.)

Say a word.

Na Ri, you're always there on my side.

(He's always reminded of his wife in front of fear.)

And Je In, you're my pretty daughter...

though you're a bit like a son, taking a lot after me.

I love you.

(His love towards his family gives him courage to overcome the fear.)

(He tears up for the first time ever since he joined the military.)

- Go for it. - Go for it.

- Hold the rope and stand by. - Hold the rope and stand by.

Step on the stick in that position.

Good.

(Their hearts are about to stop just by watching.)

I don't want to see this.

Make yourself vertically in line with the rock face.

Good. A little more.

(He stands vertically on the sharp rock face.)

A little more. All right, stop.

All right, stop. Nice posture.

Report.

Trainee 236.

- Ready to descend. - Go for it.

Descend as the coolest dad...

and head of the household.

Confident in ranger training.

- Confident in ranger training. - Good.

(This 34m vertical cliff is way further than 5,000m skating race.)

- Confident in ranger training. - Good.

Confident in...

(He keeps tripping since he only has one rope to rely on.)

- You're almost there. - Lower your upper body.

Descend confidently.

- ranger training. - Lower it.

It's not easy to control the speed.

(the gold medalist's athletic ability.)

(After struggling to take steps down)

- Trainee 236. Dismantle your gear. - Dismantle your gear.

It was so frightening when I got up there.

I couldn't walk down easily either.

It was much harder than I thought.

Next trainee in position.

Trainee 235.

I'll chew on the fear.

Enjoy.

It's delicious.

One more step forward. Good.

I'll descend safely.
