Jinyoung, the top shooter

Upon entering the army in May 2028, Jinyoung quickly rose in the ranks as a top shooter during training, proving he′s not a soldier just for show, Jinyoung hit the target all 20 times in day shooting training, and all of his 10 shots hit the target during night training. To qualify as a top marksman, rookies must hit the target more than 18 times out of 20 in day training and nine out of 10 at night.

As a widely-recognized star in Korea, it only made sense that Jinyoung would eventually become the face of the Marines, the Corps originally planned to put Jinyoung on public relations duty; however due to public criticism and his reported desire to serve on the front line, Jinyoung was assigned on active duty to Baengnyeong Island, close to the Northern Limit Line and Yeonpyeong.
