Below, check out a parody of the big screen adaptation of LES MISERABLES, produced by the Republic of Korea's Air Force. In the spoof, after a great snowstorm, Airman Jean Valjean (SSgt Lee) is exhausted from shoveling snow all day, but is delighted to hear that his girlfriend Cosette (1st Lt. Lee) has to come visit him against all odds.

However, his duty officer Lieutenant Javert (Ssgt Kim) is a man of principle and must carry out his orders to clear all the snow in the 22nd Fighter Wing, which leaves Amn(Airman) Valjean with only 10 minutes to spend with Cosette. Amn Valjean is forced to choose betweeen clearing snow and love, a love that the heavens forbid!

LES MISERABLES is the motion-picture adaptation of the beloved global stage sensation seen by more than 60 million people in 42 countries and in 21 languages around the globe and still breaking box-office records everywhere in its 27th year. Helmed by The King's Speech's Academy Award-winning director, Tom Hooper, the Working Title/Cameron Mackintosh production stars Hugh Jackman, Oscar winner Russell Crowe, Anne Hathaway, Amanda Seyfried, Eddie Redmayne, Aaron Tveit, Samantha Barks, with Helena Bonham Carter and Sacha Baron Cohen.

Set against the backdrop of 19th-century France, LES MISERABLES tells an enthralling story of broken dreams and unrequited love, passion, sacrifice and redemption-a timeless testament to the survival of the human spirit. Jackman plays ex-prisoner Jean Valjean, hunted for decades by the ruthless policeman Javert (Crowe) after he breaks parole. When Valjean agrees to care for factory worker Fantine's (Hathaway) young daughter, Cosette, their lives change forever.
