Mar 13, 2025

Upcoming drama “New Recruit 3” has unveiled its second teaser!

Based on the hit YouTube animation of the same name by Studio JBBJ, “New Recruit” is a black comedy drama that delves into the lives of young adults in their 20s, exploring the culture, secrets, and absurdities of South Korea’s military.

Returning for its highly anticipated third season, “New Recruit 3” throws Shinhwa unit into turmoil with the arrival of two unpredictable new recruits and the unexpected comeback of a notorious villain. Meanwhile, Park Min Seok (Kim Min Ho), who is on the verge of being promoted, faces an even tougher military life filled with chaos and unexpected twists.

The newly released second teaser hints at an emergency unfolding in the Shinhwa unit. Park Min Seok, visibly alarmed, rushes to report shocking news to Choi Il Gu (Nam Tae Woo), stammering, “How… how are you here?”—only for the teaser to reveal the return of Season 1’s ultimate villain, Seong Yoon Mo (Kim Hyun Kyu).

Despite his previous misdeeds that landed him straight in military prison, he reappears, shedding tears in prayer as if repenting. But is his remorse genuine, or is there another scheme brewing? His chilling smirk suggests that the Shinhwa unit is in for another storm. With troublemaker new recruits and a returning villain, the stakes in military life have never been higher.
