In 2018, moon Jae-in, who served as the president of South Korea, publicly apologized to the Vietnamese people who were slaughtered by the Rok army in the Vietnam War during a visit to Vietnam, and after the news was broadcast, people were very surprised that during the Vietnam War, there were South Korean troops joining. And look at President Moon Jae-in's statement, they actually carried out a brutal massacre of Vietnamese civilians, what is going on?
For most people, the Vietnam War was a war between North and South Vietnam and the United States, so why did the South Korean army appear on the battlefield in Vietnam? After some investigation, it can be roughly summarized that these two reasons are that the US military wants to reduce the number of casualties of its own fighters, and the other is that South Korea urgently needs a large amount of construction funds. In this case, South Korea and the United States hit it off, when the dictatorship of South Korea President Park Chung-hee and the United States agreed that the United States will give South Korea reciprocal financial assistance according to the number of Troops sent by South Korea, so according to relevant statistics, South Korea has sent more than 300,000 South Korean troops to the Vietnamese battlefield, which is also the most brutal army in the entire Vietnam War.
What is even more incredible is that the Rok army not only appeared, but also left a very bad reputation in the Vietnam War. Everyone knows that the North Vietnamese army and the U.S. army treated prisoners of war during the Vietnam War very cruelly, but compared with this South Korean army, it seems to be a small witch. When they helped the US military to carry out the cleaning work, they almost implemented the "three light policy" on the Vietnamese civilians like the Japanese army invading China, during the Vietnam War, the ROK army burned and committed adultery, all evil, as many as 40,000 soldiers and civilians died in the hands of the ROK army, even children, pregnant women and the elderly did not escape the clutches of the ROK army, and their cruel behavior even made the Japanese media come out to accuse them. At that time, some U.S. generals publicly stated that among their servant troops, the most reassuring to the U.S. military was the Rok army, because as long as it was an area under the jurisdiction of the ROK army, almost all of them were killed and left without leaving.
It can be said that what the Rokjun did was inhumane, almost doing anything except personnel. Some people who are familiar with history also said that they should not underestimate the cruelty of the Rok army, after all, they also did the same cruel thing to China as a servant army of Japan during the War of Resistance Against Japan! A nation that does not know how to develop its own strength, but only because it embraces the thighs of a powerful country, it flaunts its might and makes such a criminal act feel very sad.
