Well to tell you the truth and this is coming from people who I met in South Korea. I had many chances to speak to many elderly South Koreans when I was over there. They said to me that during the time when North Korea invaded South Korea to take over in Power, The South Koreans were either forced to move more down south to get away from them or to surrender to them and become North Korean.

When the U.S.Military stepped in along with many other allied nations, They thought they would have to adapt to American culture. Supprizingly they seen that the Americans respected their culture but didn't why until they seen that U.S. in made up of many different cultures.

They said to me that, that is why the U.S. is so strong. One South Korean told me of a song that was made during this war. He tried to sing the whole thing in english but wasn't able to becasue it's such a sad song. But for what he sung went like this.

It is cold and snowing,
the North Koreans are attacking and we have no place to go,
It feels too cold to move towards south to get away from them,
But we have to try even if it mean to die,
Oh god please let them not take our freedom,
Oh god please not let take our country,

He also told me that he remembers his mother and father trying to hide them, it was a horrible time he said.
