Real Men 300 (진짜 사나이 300)

Last week, the special forces-to-be finished Special Warfare School...

and joined the special forces.

The finest combatant-to-be went to...

Force Recon Battalion from Recruit Training Battalion.

(The 1st step to become 300 Warriors is Army Physical Fitness Test.)

The special forces are required to be super fit.

(Their training is exceptionally tough.)

The training to become super fit...

is the special forces' merciless circuit training by teams.

They have to make impossible possible with their team members.

(It's not an ordinary fitness training.)

(It's the deadly training for special forces.)

Meanwhile, there's this fitness competition...

for the monsters in White Skull Division.

They have to overcome their own limits.

Only those who overcome the merciless competitors get to...

become the finest combatants.

I want to win.

Who will be the final winner...

that will represent White Skull Division?

Good job.

But this is only just beginning.

It's not going to be easy.

Nice to meet you all.

From now on, you'll be the executives for...

Force Recon Battalion to become the finest combatants.

You will be going through...

tough trainings from now on.

I hope you all do your best.

Being a soldier runs in my blood. I'm sure I'll do well here.

I know that I'm going to do well.

I'm also very fit too.

I think we are here.

We are here. We're passing the guardhouse.

(The narrow alley starts with a restricted area.)

Oh, my gosh.

(They're at White Skull Force Recon Battalion.)

In fact,

I know how tough it is in White Skull Division.

There are some well-known units.

"Let's Win", "White Skull", and so on.

I was more worried...

than anybody else here.

If you fight to die, you will live. Love for one´s flesh and blood.

They're filled with White Skull Spirit.

They're in charge of Korea's spearhead.

They're the White Skull Force Recon Battalion.

We're starting appointment ceremony for honorary sergeants.

Attention!

(In hopes of becoming the finest combatants)

Present your arms.

- Salute! - Salute!

(The White Skull veterans are at the Force Recon Battalion.)

Salute!

Salute!

(Lieutenant Colonel Lee Tae Hyun, Force Recon Battalion Commander)

(Cheerful fanfare for them to keep fighting spirits)

Congratulations on becoming honorary sergeants of White Skull.

From now on, do not keep...

the word "impossible"...

in your head.

Even when your back hurts...

and face painful agony,

stay fit and strong.

Make it through to the end.

I wish you all the best.

Get ready for White Skull chant.

- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.

Start with White Skull chant.

- Live with White Skull... - Live with White Skull...

- and die with White Skull. - and die with White Skull.

- You fight to die, you will live. - You fight to die, you will live.

- Love for one´s flesh and blood. - Love for one´s flesh and blood.

- White Skull, White Skull, go! - White Skull, White Skull, go!

(Their arms are raised high like White Skull veterans.)

As you were.

- Attention. - Yes, sir.

Nice to meet you.

The training to become...

the finest combatants...

had 1,087 applicants...

from 2015 until today.

Only 57 of them got to be the finest combatants.

It's an honorable course yet the toughest training...

even within Republic of Korea Army.

If you pass the test,

you'll be representing our division...

for selecting the finest combatants.

Those who fail the test will go home.

(They've been relying on each other.)

This is the real training.

(This will be the last moment for them to smile together.)

This is obviously a competition.

Somebody will go home.

Somebody will stay.

(It's a harsh and merciless competition for survival.)

It's surely tougher here.

But I can't do anything about it...

when my fellow trainee does better than me.

I feel like I've been clubbed.

(The deadly express ticket to the fiery pit)

You are doing just fine.

Who will get to make it...

to the end?

Please do your best at every moment. Understood?

- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.

I was so pressured.

Can I make it to the end?

I was overwhelmed.

I thought, "It must be tough here."

- Get inside. - Yes, sir.

(They're getting inside the barracks.)

Put your stuff in front of the locker.

- Hello. - Check your lockers.

You can get down.

- Okay. - Sit down.

(They didn't expect to meet the executive officers here.)

Do you stay in this barracks?

Did you meet each other today?

We've been staying here together...

since we started the training for the finest combatants.

It's like a camp training.

- Yes. - You are right.

The finest combatant doesn't come to the world overnight.

They start from battalion and division level,

and advance to the Non-Commissioned Officer Academy,

the final destination for becoming the finest combatants.

(They will go home when they fail to meet satisfactory level.)

The collective training to survive...

the deadly race will start.

With honor of White Skull,

the applicants' fierce race to become division representatives...

for the finest combatants will start now.

Can 12 of us including me...

make it to the end?

- Yes. - Yes.

We are competing against each other.

We are all competitors.

- We're not competitors. - We are companions.

- Companions? - If we all do well,

we can all make it to the end.

(There's a subtle atmosphere between competitors and companions.)

Let's introduce ourselves briefly.

Yes, sir.

Salute.

I was appointed as the honorary sergeant today. I'm Shownu.

I'm here...

because I want to prove that I'm a strong man...

to my son.

You probably watched this show called "Let's Go! Dream Team"...

a lot in the army. I was always in second place.

(He's the all-time 2nd place in "Let's Go! Dream Team".)

That's me.

(He used to show how fit he was with his monstrous physique.)

(But they treated him like an idol and loved him a lot.)

(He's timid now because he didn't expect them to react this way.)

I thought, "What's going on?"

Nice to meet you all. I am First Lieutenant Jin Gun Hyung...

from White Skull Force Recon Battalion.

I have a unique nickname.

People call me as "The Merciless".

- Staff Sergeant Shownu. - Yes, sir.

This is my locker. Can you see a photo over there?

He's very cute.

- Can you take out the black film? - Yes, sir.

I am fit today,

but I used to be 110kg.

I dropped weight by 45kg in just 31 days.

That's why people started to call me as "The Merciless".

Nice to meet you.

I'm the most fit man from Force Recon Battalion of Third Division.

My nickname is "Captain America".

The character "Captain America" in the movie was...

a weak man too.

Please take out my photo for me too.

There's my photo at the back.

Oh, my goodness.

That's me on the left.

You used to be so skinny then.

When I first joined here, I was really skinny.

I trained myself for three years. People call me...

- as the most fit guy. - Oh, my goodness.

But before this,

I've set a lot of records at Army Physical Fitness Test.

You said you were ranked as the fittest soldier for three times.

What are the events?
