Korean men in their twenties must serve the mandatory service. prior to the enlistment. we conduct KMPI psychological test to check recruits' mental states. only the ones without any mental problems are enlisted. However, we see many cases that the recruits cannot adjust to the military environment after the enlistment and show latent abnormal mental state. In order to find maladjusted recruits, ROK Army conducts several psychological tests, but I usually conduct K-H-T-P test and sentence completion test. After I conduct above tests on soldiers, especially on PSCs (Private Second Class). I was able to find many maladjusted recruits easily. After I find those recruits, I try to help them to adjust to the military environment or give them psychological therapy by counseling them. By finding those maladjusted recruits in an early stage and counseling them, I could help many recruits.
