AKP STAFF

Former South Korean Navy special forces officer and a YouTuber Ken Rhee (Age 38), who left Korea to fight as a volunteer soldier in Ukraine, was recently injured during a mission. 

On May 14th, the news of him getting injured was posted on Ken Rhee's YouTube channel community tab. According to the channel manager, "LT Ken Rhee recently incurred injuries while leading a special reconnaissance mission behind enemy lines. He has been transferred to a military hospital following the successful operation." 

He added that he will keep the subscribers posted regarding Ken Rhee's recovery. 

Meanwhile, Ken Rhee left the country last March, announcing his intention to join the Ukrainian volunteer army. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued an emergency travel warning level 4 (travel ban) for all regions of Ukraine from March 13. The police arrested those who returned from Ukraine after entering the country without permission on charges of violating the passport law.

According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, 9 Koreans went to Ukraine to participate in the war, and as of last month, four, including Ken Rhee, have not returned. Authorities will proceed with the investigation as soon as they return home.
