with a lot of these types of stories I like to think since she transmigrated into the body of a child her brain is also still developing and likely has little control over what she thinks and says whats honestly in her mind like a real child without overthinking or being logical. I think a few stories i've read alluded to that. I've come across a few and I sort of assume this for most of them while reading.
Yes, this can be true, since I did read other story with same story plot of adult soul inside a kid body finding hard to control their action, which is understandable. But in this case, I think she is deliberately or consciously choosing to use the military dialogue, not cause she not able to control it...that is how I see it so I'm frustrated.
ㅋㅋㅋ You might not be familiar with it, but Korean soldiers actually do exactly what she did. They even tend to exaggerate their movements when they're around a superior. You can find plenty of examples on youtube. It looks pretty ridiculous if you're used to how things are outside of Korea. I always thought it was ridiculous too, but in Korea it was just considered normal lollll

????Why is she using a military dialogue and action (eg: saluting) when she knows she possessed a 5 year old kid that also in a past/historical period. And as one of the comment state "Even soldiers don’t act like this when they’re in general public and is out of duty"
As a "special force soldier", she have to be smart enough to know how to bend herself according to the situation she is at. I don't expect her to act like a literally 5 year old kid, but just speak like any other normal person will speak.
And using the excuse of—idk how a five year old kid behave— is BULLSHIT.
