Not really.  But for those who are biracial in Korea, military service may be in their future.  According to a new proposal by 23 lawmakers, biracial Koreans may become eligible for mandatory military service in the near future.  Interesting to see a Constitutional argument being made in favor of equal protection for a minority that has not even asked for the right to serve.  Governing self-interest or self-interested governance?
