| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The significant contribution of the project can be divided into three parts; firstly, focusing on military service, it has constructed the new conceptual model of gender order system in the context of modern Korean society. Secondly, this study has revealed the diversity and hierarchy in Korean masculinities. Finally, the project has contributed greatly to shedding light on a new role of engaging military service in modern Korea. The existing studies on the impact of the military service on Korean society and its gender order has only suggested the role of military service as a process of resocialization and/or rite of passage. However, based on the empirical findings, the research has shown that serving military service allows Korean men to acquire the label of ‘Self-sacrifice.’
