South Korea.  Based on what i've seen on Korean TV, all able bodied
citizens are expected to serve in the military somewhere between 1 to
2 years.  I got the impression they usually do so in their early 20's.
I also got the impression that it was similar to conscription in
Scandinavia, where it was more like Scouts than Boot Camp.
