Geun Lee, a former captain of the Navy Special Warfare Group (UDT/SEAL), known for his YouTube content 'Fake Man', claimed that he recently left for Ukraine to participate in the Ukrainian Volunteer Army.



Former Captain Lee said through his Instagram and YouTube channel 'ROKSEAL' yesterday (the 6th), "When the Ukrainian president asked the world for help, 'ROKSEAL' immediately prepared a voluntary service mission." "Within 48 hours We made a plan, prepared coordination and equipment,” he said.



Mr. Lee said he tried to leave Ukraine through official procedures, but said he received an answer from the government saying, 'If you enter a country where travel is prohibited, you will be treated as a criminal and punished with a year in prison or a fine of 10 million won.'



"Because we are punished, we cannot stand still without helping Ukraine with the skills, knowledge and expertise we have," he said. "I didn't share the plan with anyone except a few people involved," he said.



He continued, "If I return alive, I will take responsibility and receive punishment."
