Captivating and Engaging Military Show

Steel Troop is truly a show that is intense and gets you hooked on the difficult and thrilling missions they need to complete. It also shows the unity and sportmanship both as a team and as multiple teams. The unity these guys have is incredible to watch.

Every episode felt like an action movie, I got so emotionally invested and I felt my heart pounding really fast during the missions and it also felt like I was a part of the team.

It was intense from the start until the end. It started off with 707 talking big and provoking the other teams. It was then funny to watch how they ended last in the next battle. It actually kind of enraged me how they acted towards the other teams. The whole team seemed like a bunch of annoying pricks that can't handle real life situations. Perfect example of "all bark no bite". What makes it even funnier is the fact that it got so bad, they had to remove their team leader from the screen. During the missions, you see them skipping the scenes where he is talking or his face is shown. In the end they got so tired they completely removed him from the show and got the team a substitute member.

Among the teams, UDT was my favorite. They had a good variety of members and took care of each other. When they faced hardships, they didn't let it stop them, they kept on going and never gave up until the end. It was nice seeing the bromance between UDT and SSU. Truly a pleasure to watch and it warmed my heart.

I feel like the show itself was well planned and executed from start to end. They have nice panelists, they are funny and they are different types of people, a comedian, Hee-Chul, Chuu, the Master and so on. I liked how they showed the different items that were being used in the missions (e.g pistol, tire etc). You could then get a grasp on how it would be for a regular person to use these items.

This is a show I could recommend to anyone and you don't have to be a military enthusiast to like this show. Its thrilling and makes you wanting to watch even more when you've finished an episode.
