I mean on the level of World War 2-remembered.
>>
>>31206904
It still a cold war
>>
The only real reason people put WWII up on a pedestal is because it's a Jewish war and Jews control the media.
>>
>>31206904
go to hollywood and make movie about it.
problem with that is you end with a Vietnam movie set in Korea.
>>
>>31206904

The US doesnt like to remember getting rekt.

Also, American warfare is pretty much:

>5+ years late to a war
>clean up
>USA USA USA
This is what happens when you dont backstab.
>>
180,000 allies died in Korea

Sixteen million allies died in WWII

Korea on the same level as WWII? Don't be stupid.
>>
>>31206995

58,209 Americans died in Vietnam.

54,246 Americans died in Korea.

So why is Korea not remembered like Vietnam? In terms of US military causalities, it is our 5th bloodiest war.

You were saying?

>>31207055
korea wasnt televised, it didnt soak in like vietnam.

So? A lot of people didn't grasp how bloody World War 2 really was until "Saving Private Ryan" was released.
>>
>>31206961
Not just that, it was a pretty fucking big war and the first and only war where nukes were used.

You gotta remember Europe was entirely controlled by Germany at one point.

Honestly, pretty true.

Except that our people are afraid of war now, thanks to SJW cuckery
>>
>>31206961
WW2 was a big deal regardless of the jews, it shaped all global politics after the war and directly lead into the Cold War.
>>
>>31207378

The Korean War was a fascinating conflict.

I wish more people appreciated how complex it was.
>>
>>31207284
Didn't need to be televised to be remembered because an entire generation was there first hand.
>>
>>31206904
To answer that, what really meant the Korean war to the us?
>>
>>31206904
everyone who remember ww2 or ww1 is dead
now days the ceremony is just pure propaganda that no one in living memory can dispute
>>
You have all hollywood studios owned my Koreans making 5 movies a year about how victimised they were.

Other then that you cant
>>
The only ones making korean war movies are the koreans.

Does anybody know if the chinese make korean war movies too? And if so are they good?
>>
>>31206947
Pretty much this. It ended where it began and while pretty incredible example of a country pulling itself up after a terrible war it's not a victory that really gets the blood rising.

Maybe when the job gets finished but neither side cares to do so.
>>
>trying to make Americans proud of an artificially limited war
No dice. It's total victory or apathy and anger. No inbetween
>>
we need a big name video game set in the korean war

It's funny, despite the memeing about the Korean War being the Forgotten Warâ„¢ it really isn't. It's just that nobody cares.

Which is a pretty insulting thought to the veterans of it.

"The Coldest Winter" does a great job showing how complicated the conflict was, especially in terms of politics.
>>
>>31212154
Good book, worth reading.
>>
>>31212154
I'm a veteran of your mum. Nobody cares apart from you.
>>
>>31212409

People don't care out of lazy ignorance. They think M*A*S*H was an accurate portrayal of Korea, when it was really a veiled attack on the Vietnam War.

It's fitting actually. The only real pop culture mention of Korea is a Vietnam allegory. How insulting.
>>
>>31206990
We were not rekt, but we definitely did not win.
>>
>>31212697

It was an intense tug-of-war.
>>
>>31208927s
My War seems to be pretty good.
>>
>>31212697
It's still not over, really. North Korea could decide to make it hot again at any time.
>>
>>31213013
So could the south, doesn't mean they ever will.

The north has a perfectly happy upper echelon and a mostly satisfied and submissive underclass while the south has nothing to gain from taking the north. If it was going to go hot it would have done so in the 80ish.

>Everyone who rembers ww2 is dead
not true yet retard

My grandfather fought in the Chosin reservoir and said it was the best damn time he ever had, he also said Chinese are subhumans and we should've nuked them "right in their fucking faces"

He also loved Korea so much he moved his family there, I grew up in Busan and didn't even see the US until I was 19

>Mfw trying to track down his Garand with serial #144,332 but I'll likely never find it
>>
>>31213814
I call bullshit on liking Korea back in the 50s. When Korea came out of the war, it was completely devastated and had the GDP of an African nation.
