At a training camp on Monday, South Korea's military unveiled its new line-up of "robot cooks" in an effort to reduce troops' workload and respond to mounting requests to improve daily meals.

According to media reports, the military's tech-based operating strategy has expanded to include the kitchen as it attempts to improve efficiency and safety in people management amid worries about possible soldier shortages due to the country's persistently low birthrate. The Army's 28th Recruit Training Regiment at Nonsan, 213 kilometres south of Seoul, has been using a succession of robots that can deep-fry, stir-fry, boil, and steam meals since November 2021.

Military cooks have been relieved of physical labour and repetitive tasks, and accidental accidents such as burns and musculoskeletal disorders have been avoided, according to military officials. Meal quality has also increased because to cooking appliances that follow defined cooking procedures. Previously, the military has been criticized for nutrient deficient in its soldiers. Those born between 1997 and the mid-2000s, known as "Generation-Z," released their rage by posting images of their meals on social media.

During his visit to the boot camp, Defence Minister Suh Wook was cited as stating, "I expect the pilot deployment of the military culinary robots to generate numerous outcomes, including an increase in the quality of meals, less labour strain for military chefs, and prevention of safety mishaps." Using robots has become a requirement for South Korea's 550,000-strong military, rather than a choice. Despite the fact that all able-bodied South Korean men are required to serve in the military for two years, the country is predicted to run out of troops by 2037 due to its low birth rate.
