I was in South Vietnam in the U.S. Army in 1969, I Corp. There was a South Korean unit north of us and the OFFICIAL word can down to us to LEAVE THE ROK,s ALONE!!!! Stay away! Those guys were so tough and deadly they were a danger to us! After a few weeks the ROK troops could not get the NVA to come near them much less attack them. They strung a one strand barbed wire barrier around their camp with only ONE man on guard. Even then the NVA was very careful to NOT ATTACK!!! The fearless ROK troops would rip enemy troops apart if any got within sight of the Koreans. Even we feared them!

South Korean troops have long been dogged by allegations of brutality. By Choe Sang-Hun Aug. 21, 2021 SEOUL - The South Korean marine unit had a reputation for leaving nothing breathing behind when they passed through hostile territory, not even a pig suckling its litter. After the unit swept through Phong Nhi and Phong Nhut, villages in central Vietnam, on Feb. 12, 1968, scores of bodies were found, all unarmed civilians, most of them children and women, shot or stabbed with bayonets. “This old man came out of a hiding hole, his hands held up,” recalled Ryu Jin-seong, a former marine attached to the unit who was 22 at the time. “He kept begging for life, apparently thinking he would be killed when he was taken away.” In a fit of rage, a sergeant swore and emptied his clip on the man, Mr. Ryu said. The tragedy of the Vietnam War - echoing loudly this week during the chaotic U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan - continues to haunt those victims who witnessed and survived the two decades of bloodshed. Nearly a half-century after the war ended, victims of the massacre at Phong Nhi and Phong Nhut are seeking compensation from the Seoul government in the first lawsuit of its kind being tried in a South Korean court. Stung by shocking testimony, South Korean lawmakers and civic groups are also pushing for a special law to investigate long-held allegations that South Korean troops killed thousands of civilians when they were the largest foreign contingent fighting alongside American soldiers during the war. “I have never been free from the nightmare of the day when South Korean troops came to our village,” said Nguyen Thi Thanh, 61, who lost five relatives, including her mother, sister and brother, and was herself wounded in Phong Nhi in 1968. “But the South Korean government has never once visited our village and never once asked us what happened. ___________________ South Korea sent 320,000 troops, billing them as “anti-Communist crusaders.” In return for its contribution, it won American aid that helped build the national economy. But rumors have long persisted that South Korean troops committed mass killings of Vietnamese civilians. Discussions of the topic had been a taboo under the past military dictatorship. But as South Korea enjoyed a greater freedom of press in the late 1990s, more outlets began publishing stories about the alleged civilian massacres. The one in Phong Nhi and Phong Nhut was the most documented. The United States military investigated what happened just days after the killings occurred, according to declassified American documents. According to the documents, American Marines and South Vietnamese militiamen operating in Dien Ban, Quang Nam Province, heard firing and saw huts burning after the South Korean marine unit moved into Phong Nhi and Phong Nhut. The Americans and South Vietnamese assisted villagers fleeing with wounds. They later visited Phong Nhi to find piles of bodies, including a child and pregnant woman shot in the head at close range and “a young woman who was still alive and had her breast cut off,” the documents said. One of the American Marines took pictures. More than 70 villagers died in the attack, according to the American documents and recent testimony from survivors. “The victims of this incident were defenseless civilians, the great majority of which were women and children, who were murdered as they plead for their lives,” Major John M. Campanelli, an American Marine investigator, wrote in the declassified documents on Feb. 18, 1968. He added that “in an attempt to placate the survivors and relatives of the dead and wounded,” the executive officer of the South Korean Marine battalion “offered his apologies and provided 30 bags of rice to the District Chief.” By April 1968, American military investigators concluded that “there was some probability that a war crime was committed,” and shared the information with the top South Korean officer in Vietnam, Lt. Gen. Chae Myung-shin. General Chae responded by claiming that the “massacre was an act conspired and mercilessly elected by the Communists.” South Korean veterans told a different story. Mr. Ryu said there was a standing order that if marines received even small fire, they should trace its origin and destroy everything they found, even unarmed civilians, to instill fear among the enemy. The task of demonstrating cruelty often fell into units nicknamed “killer companies,” including Mr. Ryu’s, he said. The attack in Phong Nhi and Phong Nhut started after small fire from near the villages injured a South Korean marine, according to the American documents. Mr. Ryu, a member of the second platoon, said that when his unit swept through the villages, it found no armed men but rounded up villagers. It was widely known within the company that the third platoon, which was bringing up the rear, massacred the gathered villagers, he said. “We heard that when the company commander was asked what to do with them, he raised a thumb and made the gesture of cutting the throat,” he said. The United States military reopened its case in late 1969 after the RAND Corporation, in one of its studies, uncovered allegations of brutality by South Korean troops against Vietnamese civilians. It was around this time that the South Korean intelligence agency began questioning members of the marine unit about the massacre, former officers told South Korean media in 2000. At least one of the officers gave an account similar to that of Mr. Ryu. There is no evidence that Washington or Seoul pursued the matter further. Instead, the American military was accused by refugees and student researches in the United States of suppressing evidence of civilian atrocities carried out by South Korean forces. After South Korea and Vietnam opened diplomatic ties in 1992, South Korean visitors encountered Vietnamese villagers who remembered the atrocities of South Korean troops. One study by a South Korean researcher, based on interviews with survivors and witnesses from the villages, reported that dozens of alleged mass killings carried by South Korean troops left as many as 9,000 Vietnamese civilians dead. In 2015, Ms. Nguyen and another woman became the first Vietnamese victims to visit South Korea to share their stories. In 2019, with the help of South Korean civic groups, she and 102 people from 17 Vietnamese villages petitioned President Moon Jae-in of South Korea for an investigation and apology. Last year, Ms. Nguyen filed a lawsuit against the Seoul government. South Korea maintains that it has found no evidence of civilian killings in its wartime records. When lawyers demanded that the intelligence agency make public the results of its reported investigation of marines in 1969, it refused, saying that it could “neither confirm nor deny” whether an investigation took place. In response to the petition in 2019, the Defense Ministry said it could not look into the allegations because Vietnam was not ready to cooperate. When he visited Hanoi in 2018, President Moon expressed “regrets over an unfortunate past,” but stopped short of issuing an official apology, which Hanoi has never requested. His words hardly soothed the victims in Vietnam. “No South Korean government officials have asked us survivors whether we wanted an apology,” said the petition to Mr. Moon from Ms. Nguyen and others. “We do want an apology.”

Most men in Korea have experienced the military. Most young people in their 20s experience it through conscription. Try visiting anywhere in downtown Korea. If you just gather the men there, you get a military-level force. It was hard, but on the other hand, it's a very proud result. That's why during the LA riots, Korean men held guns as they always did to protect their families.

That's a good video. the exact information is, the U.S., which was engaged in a war with Vietnam at the time, tried to take U.S. troops stationed in South Korea and put them into the Vietnam War. South Korea, which was confronting North Korea, proposed South Korea's participation in the Vietnam War to prevent the U.S. military's presence as a strong mediator from disappearing. There was no other option. The reality of the Korean military, known as "cruel," may have been made inevitably by Vietnam's strategy. North Vietnam then mobilized some civilians to attack the enemy. The Korean military could not distinguish who was a civilian and who was the enemy because a civilian-looking person, such as a child and an elderly, used a strategy that violated the Geneva Convention, such as bombing Korean troops. Against this backdrop, the South Korean military chose to move for a clear victory. In fact, when they shot down a terrorist who looked like a civilian, there was a guideline that admitted that they killed the enemy only when they brought their weapons as evidence, so it can be assumed that they were trying to protect civilians as much as possible at the time.

I was discharged from Korean special strike force in 1992 and started travelling around the world. At that time, I could meet many friends who were discharged from military service in other countries. They often asked me "warrior" or "soldier" but I couldnt understand why they asked it. They said they were navy or mechanic and warrior was differnet from them because they didnt know how to fight but I still couldnt understand it because all men in military including navy or mechanic were basically warriors in korea. Another thing I got surprised was military training. The basic training for all soldiers in korea were for special forces in other countries. For example, 100 km fully armed mountain march for infiltration. At last, this video can makes people misunderstand Koreans are tough and cruel. For the last 30 years, I lived and travelled here and there and I found that Koreans dont look that tough than some other peoples but we are totally changed when we have really good reason to attack other peoples like war.

I had no idea we had allies with us during the Vietnam war. You always hear about it being an "American war" so you don't really think anyone else got involved in that folly of a war. Then again, they're one of our best friends so it's not that surprising either. Thank you for your service to all involved.

Duc Hoang another guy thats quick to blame and hurl insults without reasoning or sense of logic. The Korean government did it for money AND protection (from North Korea & Co.). Since SK was led by a dictator during the VN war, the soldiers had to give most money to the government. So they didnt earn much more and voluntarily risked their lives, left family and friends behind, and fought in booby trapped jungles, because of their strong sense of hatred towards communism and sense of comradery towards their ally, that helped them against the same threat just recently. Oh, and if you think its innocent of the VC to use their people as meat shields (yes even strap bombs to children of their own people and send them into Allied troops), then there‘s little use of a discussion here. And lastly, why did the North Vietnamese massacre their own people and send them to labor camps after they already took over the country?? Many VNs ran to America because of this (yes, i‘m Korean with Vietnamese friends living in the US that tell me this). I‘d really like to finally find one reasonable Vietnamese commenting here but alas, i only find mindless insults.

And the Vietcongs used the Vietnamese people as their shields. It makes sense why Vietnamese people hate Koreans, but before they hate them, Vietnamese people should study why they happened. Vietnamese people, who are not sure how horrible and cowardly the Vietcong soldiers practiced in this war, should be aware of this and be fair. No military would trust them on a battlefield where no one could tell if they were farmers or Vietcong. Imagine a male or female farmer who is kind to you is trying to kill you in the dark night.

Heard it straight from an intelligence officer who was stationed in the Central Highlands: Wherever the ROKs operated, the VC would leave. They wanted nothing to do with the ROKs who made a game of sneaking out and brutally killing the VC, bringing back cut off body parts as trophies.

SK: please let us fight with you as repayment for your defense of our country US: uhhh maybe not right now. *10 years later* US: Ok please send help

When I was in Basic training in 1975, our Drill Sargeant told us stories of when he was a Marine attached to a Korean unit. Many of the Korean soldiers were orphaned from the Korean war and all one had to say was "Communist" and the Korean response was, "Where? I'll kill him." The Koreans also understood how the VC were set up. Americans would go into a village and see nothing but Asian faces. Koreans would go into a village and quickly point out the VC in the village. And the VC were terrified when the Koreans got the right people. The Koreans were so good that the VC pulled all of their forces out of the province that the Koreans controlled. The Korean discipline was strict. ROK soldiers would often practice tae kwan do in down times. A story that the Drill Sargeant told was when the Koreans entered a Vietnamese village one of the ROK soldiers raped a Vietnamese girl. The girl and her parents approached the Korean commander. He assembled his troops and asked the girl to point out the rapist, which she did. The ROK commander had a quick court martial and the ROK soldiers shot the rapist. The ROK forces didn't screw around.

It's terrible, there is always civilian casualties in war. But in Vietnam, much of the blame should go to VC that involved civilians into their tactics. Hiding behind them, and posing as civilians and attacking enemy at night. They broke the Geneva convention. That's why soldiers wear uniforms and fight under a flag. The moment VC involved civilians they just made them indistinguishable from soldiers. To the opposition's eyes they just became part of enemy operations that needs to be neutralized. So how do you fight against this counter insurgency? Koreans already experienced this tactics from Korean war by communist forces, and they just knew how to deal with it. How to fight in this guerilla warfare. It's a savage time, and nothing to be proud of. But that is war, and its never clean and just. It should be stopped at all cost.

Story from a US Vet I talked to years ago: The Koreans were INCREDIBLY thorough and when going through a village, would ask every. Single. Person. If they were VC or knew of VC whereabouts and if it came back clean and they later found out that they lied (weapons stashes, sheltering VC soldiers, etc) they’d burn the whole thing down. Also they wouldn’t let a Vietnamese person light their cigarettes for them or it someone near them had been lit by a Vietnamese person and they tried to light the Korean’s cig with the end of their’s, he’d slap it on the ground and step on it. Keep in mind, these are just the experiences of one man who fought alongside the Koreans in Vietnam, but he got a strong sense in talking to them (through translators) that they were very bitter at communism and China for having played such a large role in the civil war of their country and played a big part in why they were so ruthless and also recently battle-hardened

I'm Korean. S.Vietnamese were our ally who is fighting against our most threatening enemy, Communist. So our people thought helping South Vietnamese from attack could be returning the favor to ally who helped us during the Korean War and taking revenge for what we've suffered from them in the past. And We thought South Vietnamese were same poor victims like us, who got invaded all of a sudden and fighting in poor condition. We didn't know how S.Vietnam was corrupted from inside nor how many traitors were selling their country to Communism. For government, my country was seriously poor and needed financial support from U.S government. If we decline their request, the financial support from U.S could be decreased so they had to listen to U.S anyway. Also volunteering Nam was another way to get some free shelter, free food for a moment and relatively high salary then it was in S.Korea during those periods, but it was 37.5 to 54 bucks per month to average soldiers and few hundred bucks per month for officers depending on their Rank. and most money didn't get paid properly and government took their payment to invest industries in S.Korea.

Still, SKorea has acknowledged their crimes in Vietnam, but that's what happens during the war. At least you acknowledge your past "mistakes" in order to better the relationship between the two countries so that both can progress unto a positive future.
