In an interview, Lee Geun said, "It is very difficult to fight an enemy that is a global superpower.



Regarding the background of volunteering for the international volunteers, he said, "I thought I would be helpful to Ukraine because I had a lot of combat experience in Somalia and Iraq in the past.



Geun Lee added, "I wanted to save Mariupol (a port city in southeastern Ukraine), but unfortunately it fell to the enemy."



Finally, he said, "I nearly died two or three times in battle." .
