I don't think they will be as strong as him, but narratively they can at least be in the same league.
South Korea is not that much smaller to have NONE who is significantly stronger, and yet they have NONE who is. So I'd still call bs.

Everything we've seen from S-ranks in the early episodes shows that they absolutely would obliterate any country's military. Do bullets even hurt an S-rank hunter? Not that they'd be hit with their speed.

Taking on a whole country's army is not exactly impressive.
