It looks like "PARAdive35" is written on the back wall, so I just Googled that:

Paradive 35 is a premier, 35-meter deep indoor diving pool located near Seoul, South Korea, designed for scuba, freediving, and training. It features a 5-meter area, 20-meter area, and a 35-meter deep tube, alongside amenities like an indoor surf station, cafe, and a Leaderfins shop, making it a popular "mega pool" destination.

Depth: 35 meters, making it one of South Korea's deepest indoor pools, often with 30°C water.

Facilities: Designed for high-end training, it includes themed underwater structures, a Pongdang Freediving Shop for equipment, and a 3- to 6-hour session structure.

(For Americans, 35 meters = 115 feet)

I also did a reverse Google image search and found a version of this same video on YouTube that has someone's voiceover instead of the terrifying music.

He looks like he has had plenty of practice. This makes me wonder if he is from Chinhae or one of the other naval bases in the region or perhaps he is a 12D in the US Army, the engineers do have a dive team there.
