This information was overwhelming but totally fascinating because my background knowledge on Korea could fill a paper cup. I was most interested in the Korean War (or Korean Conflict, or military action) because my father-in-law fought there. He does not speak much about it (okay, except for the prostitutes) and I guess my high school history class confused me. I did not know South Korea was planning its own offensive before North Korea invaded first. It seemed that S.K. has been portrayed as the victim or a weaker party. I would have liked to have heard more about this and seen more pictures. I hope history classes today are making this war clearer to students and using multiple sources to do so.
