Hazing in the Republic of Korea Armed Forces
Summary
There have been instances of hazing and bullying carried out in the Republic of Korea Armed Forces, often to conscripts and junior members in South Korea. Hazing has been enforced and encouraged mainly under the pretext of establishing military discipline and hierarchy. Hazing has resulted in a large number of fragging, shooting spree and suicide cases; such cases of suicide are referred to as non-combat casualties by the military.
