Week 4 - Chosin: The epic Korean War battle Hollywood overlooked

    Last 2 weeks, we had great tensions in Korean peninsula. North Korean government stimulated nuclear experiment ignored cautions of other countries. North Korea diffused the treaty in 1953, it means they'll declare a war in anytime. Majority of countries focused on Korean peninsula. Fortunately, nothing was happened.

   The news article was talking about the Korean War in 1950 to remember how dangerous it was. Reporter interviewed with old man at a age of 20 volunteered as a solider. "after I survived countless of battles, I had to watch friends are dying and step on friends' body." He illustrated brutality of war and emphasized next generation needs preparation of another war.

    Today teens in Korea aren't really focusing on history unless, they are preparing for quiz or something related to test. My father always reminded that history is crucial than today and remember accomplishments of the ancestors. I want to suggest, teens need to concentrate on history and pains of the ancestors. 

     This article is related to Revolutionary War in New England. American colonists aren't trained well as British soldiers, they were farmer, black smith, merchant, and unrelated to military. However, Colonists fought for their freedom and to protect homelands. While I was reading and studying American history; I realized humans want to protect their country, family, lands, and related to their properties.
