A lack of cultural nostalgia attached to the toy and wariness of the film’s feminist messaging may have kept the Korean audience away from the Hollywood mega-hit: "There is no real fan base for ‘Barbie’ in Korea.”

Then it seems pretty sexist to leave women out of the opportunity to effectively defend themselves in case North Korea ever attacks.
Isn’t that why men say that if they want to get the same privileges they should enroll as well?
The caviat is that the mandatory service is two years long, which most Korean women don’t want to waste in the military
No rational human should ever want to waste 2 years of their life learning how to kill.
That’s a perfectly reasonable thing to learn whilst still technically at war with a tyrannical socialist neighbour.
