The official Marine Corps blog on Thursday published photos of heartthrob Hyun Bin in training with other conscripts. In the photos Hyun Bin, in his second-week basic training course, runs carrying a rubber boat over his head or goes into the cold sea water. Those who saw the photos on the Internet say they look like scenes from an action movie.

Hyun Bin began his military service as a marine early last month. After six months of basic training, he will be deployed on April 22 to a unit where he will perform his military duties for the next 21 months.
