In South Korea, all able-bodied men must serve mandatory military service for at least 18 months, while women can volunteer for military duty as officers or noncommissioned officers.

I wonder why the Korean government doesn't draft women. According to the article, women can serve in the military as non-commissioned officers or officers, but don't non-commissioned officers and officers need more physical abilities and skills than regular soldiers?
