Posted by jieun-im53 pts Tuesday, March 15, 2022

Captain Lee Keun, a well-known former Navy special warfare soldier who gained immense popularity through the YouTube reality show 'Fake Men', shocked many when he announced that he has left for Ukraine as a volunteer soldier against the Russian attacks.

After a few days of silence on his social media platforms, netizens began to worry for the captain's safety. However, on March 15 KST, Lee Keun made a post on his personal Instagram, confirming he was very much alive, and explained the situation he is currently in.


Below is Lee Keun's statement:

"Ministry of Foreign Affairs, National Police Agency, and the public.

Thank you all for your concern. But I can't go back to Korea as of now.

The situation is very serious right now, and if all fighters withdraw, there will be nothing more left here. I will do my best to help Ukraine.

I will greet you when I return home later on. 

My passport has not been invalidated yet, so don't worry. Even if it is invalidated, entry [to Korea] is always possible.

Thank you.

P.S. Attempting to re-enter Poland? Nonsense, you scamming reporters. I've never even been near the borders, and went my separate way with the members at the front line."
