My dad fought in Korea. He was fighting in the North, February of 1956, when he was wounded by a piece of shrapnel. His best friend was killed on September 25th, 1955, during Operation Chromite in Seoul. He always spoke fondly of the Korean people. This is a wonderful project.

Words can't express my (our gratitude). I feel truly guilty for not being a better person, and Korea not being a better country after such extraordinary sacrifice. I don't think we would have done that for another tiny insignificant country. We are forever indebted to y'all 🙏🏼 💕🐈🐕.

These heroes are incredible! For many of them (perhaps) this might be the first time someone from Korea thank them for their Valor, bravery, sacrifice and blood. These are the type of men younger boys, teens and adults should look up to. Their humility truly humbles me.

My dad was a Korean War veteran, unfortunately he passed, years ago, but I remember him telling his stories. I am sure he would be so proud to see S Korea today !

I met a Korean war veteran and he spoke highly of the Korean people and is still friends with them from his time there. I consider my Korean friends my family and I love them all dearly. This is so important because this is like a forgotten time to a lot of people. Thank you to this wonderful man for documenting and wanting to know their stories and to capture it for future generations. Keep up the wonderful work.

My dad past away 6 yrs ago and fought in the Korean War. This is just fantastic way to support the veterans that fought for freedom in Korean that were not Korean themselves. Truly wonderful project.

I hadn't expected this video to grab me in the heart and bear hug it. Wow!!! I'm still crying. It's a truly beautiful thing you're doing. The appreciation these folks are receiving alone is a great acknowledgment in itself. I keep up with Korean news because my family: son, niece, 2 great nieces, and myself are coming for a visit. It's definitely a BTS concert and to see all the music history and museums. I want to see it all, including the Hybe building where that new state-of-the-art BTS musical art history is. I'm okay with this, so are my nieces; we are excited. And, of course, taking in the other historical sites of South Korea. Then, it will be on to Japan for at least a week. I also would like to spend a couple of days in Laos as I have 2 friends that I worked with that moved to their homeland when they retired. I also want to see if I can still make a donation to this because of yours. It's a beautiful thing 😍❤🏯🙏😊 I had 4 uncles in that war. My Dad tried to enlist, but he was the baby and the last boy at home, so they wouldn't take him. He was devastated. All 4 uncles came home from the war, and my oldest uncle Rex made a career out of the military. His rank was one step below a general, I believe. He was an instructor with officers training 🏅🇺🇸 Thank you for all you do 💐

There were four Chinese Americans serving in US Marines during Korean War. Their biggest fear was getting killed by their own team, mistaken as enemy soldiers.
