Defense ministry conducting poll on military cadets over proposed academy integration

South Korea's defense ministry is surveying 2,350 military cadets on a proposal to integrate the Army, Air Force, and Navy academies into a unified academy, as the government revises the plan amid pushback from alumni groups and stakeholders. The online survey runs from Friday through Tuesday, excluding about 143 naval cadets on rotational training. The ministry is reportedly considering relocating the Army academy out of Seoul while retaining the other two academies, signaling a potential backtrack from the original merger plan.

Ministry defends revision of military academy plan as efforts to increase public's acceptance
