My buddy served during the Vietnam War and he said they had some South Korean combat troops serving alongside of them. These South Korean combat soldiers would share guard duty duties at night. My buddy says that the guards were supposed to yell halt three times before making any type of decision on whether to fire or not. The way he told it, the guy was supposed to yell halt wait two or three seconds yell halt and wait another few seconds and then issue a final halt command. The South Korean guards would yell the required halt command but it went like this: halt, halt, halt, with no waiting between each command. The South Korean guards would then open up. My buddy said everybody inside the compound slept well on those nights because they knew they were safe.
My father served the Vietnam War, Even though it wasn't his turn to guard, he stayed up alert, specially when Americans were on guard duty. So are his comrades, they take turn to stay alert. My dad said It's like to kill or get killed situation. He was collage student, then, he volunteer for his college tuitions.

My grandfather was born to a wealthy North Korean household, 1944. He spent his early years during the Korean war, with his family having to leave their whole lives in the north to escape to the south amidst the conflict. Due to the impact it had on his life, my grandfather grew to resent communism, and a respect for Americans. He would go on to center most of his life around these values. At 14, my grandfather would illegally enlist in the Korean Marine Corps, and when Koreans first began to deploy to Vietnam in 1964, he was a part of one of the first units sent in, being the Second Blue Dragon Division. He would redeploy to Vietnam consecutively until 1973, and after making close friends with some of the American GIs he had fought alongside, decided to immigrate to New York with his wife and children. His daughter would go on to marry an American man, and out I came, born out of one man's hate of all things Communist

I met a few veterans from the Vietcong. He told me how the Vietnamese would try to avoid engagement with Korea's Tiger division unless they had an advantage due to the brutal interrogation techniques of the Tiger
The South Koreans loved killing commies. Anyone who spoke or was related to a commie they would just execute. Some of the most brutal and successful fighters of the war
Ive heard the same from vets. The South Korean army and marine units there hated communist and loved to kill them. The cong and the NVA avoided them unless as was said before...they had. overwhelming force
Yea and in every single movie you see viet cong losing one vs one close combat, the actors punching them like they are nothing. I've heard that viet cong were even more dangerous in close combat, knifing them will not save your life, that's why USA veterans hated to fight close combat with viet cong.
@@anhluu9417these were vc I’m guessing from the black garb, but the actual North Vietnamese army were real hard chargers and skilled in combat from what I’ve read.
Korean soldiers are only strong in movies, don't be too delusional, look at reality and in reality North Vietnamese soldiers will not have the same guerrilla fighting style as in this movie.
In real life, an ambush is never carried out like this. The side setting up the ambush would set up crossing lines of automatic fire (like a grid), and a small platoon walking into it would be wiped out. No matter which way they try to run, the grid pattern of the automatic fire would ensure they are hit. Also, the ambusher would never set up an ambush right next to a booby trap because the mechanical trap would take away the element of surprise. Lastly, when you have the advantage of being "ambusher," you are usually dug-in in advantageous position. You don't abandon that position, expose yourself to live fire, and come running towards the "ambushee" so that you can engage in hand-to-hand combat.
This style of ambush was rampant by the VC during the war. Most of these soldiers were untrained villagers and the CO's favored numbers to overpower the enemy. The VC urged a siege mentality even in the smallest of sorties. Khe Sahn, Saigon, and the entirety of the Tet Offensive are proof of this.
@@pachajonathan LMAO , Khe Sanh , Saigon and the Tet offensive are not ambushes , they were massive siege at Khe Sanh and large military operation/ offensives conducted by North Vietnam commandos and well trained regular army , you dont break into the US embassy and the US military command center of the entire South East Asia with a bunches of untrained villagers. Small ambushes in Vietnam jungle were also conducted by trained and well experienced VC soldiers , they had 40 years of constant war fare experiences, these people were born and died in wars , while the Americans were a bunch of boys dragged out of highschool with minimal training .

@Amuro Ray 20:1 doesn't count defenseless villagers. Probably did count the VC who were hiding the among the 'innocent' villagers and killed soldiers when they were unaware, though.
The 7th Marines operated in the Rocket Belt near an Hoa and Nong Son. We saw and at times were supported by the South Korean Second Marines - the Blue Dragons. The villagers feared them very much. They were the most feared of all allied soldiers in Viet Nam. The Cong often would not operate in areas where they were.
The South Koreans were feared and or avoided for their notorious atrocities and brutality against Vietnamese civilians. As a fighting unit, the S. Koreans are no better than an average teenage platoon who just graduated from basic training at Fort Benning. As a fighting unit, the Koreans were no match for the battle-hardened NVA regulars.
@@hoangtruong7333 why unrealistic? If you get rammed with a bunch of spikes there will be many holes in your body that you weren't born with. That will hurt... a lot
Well, that trap in the video is real & does been used in the Vietnam War. Although it wasn't as common as many others type of spike traps or pit-hole cause these were easier to setups. This trap howerver, does have a higher chances to kill rather than heavily ingured the victims.
This scene is totally unrealistic to how the vietcong actually fought in real life, the korean should have been dead the moment that one guy got trapped. Why would the vietcongs charge at the enemy, being fully aware of the enemy's stronger fire power while having defensive potion. This is an abomination to the image of the vietcong

My father was a former North Vietnamese veteran, and he once said that commanders would not allow the killing of South Korean soldiers because if only one of them was killed, the nearby villages would be brutally attacked by them. In fact, he witnessed a few small massacres of South Korean soldiers during his reconnaissance. He doesn't often watch Korean movies with us because there are frequently images of South Korean soldiers on them. He did not hate Korea, Koreans but the war is painful, it is hard to forget. When "Descendants of the Sun" was famous and influenced young people in Vietnam, I saw him cry.
@@user-nd2bw7vj4r BRUTALLY. you serious? It just means hơ evil and brutal the ROK soldiers. Well killing kids that were suspected to be evil communists.
The Vietnamese fought because they wanted to have the land re-united, but the Geneva Conference divided it up to North and South which lead to this conflict.The North gained support from communist countries and believed in fighting off anyone who supported the French Colonialists (the original oppressors). The south gained support from the US and other democratic countries and believed in re-uniting Vietnam under a democracy, but morale fell when their president was assassinated by the US government simply because he just wanted to just re-unite Vietnam without French colonial influence. After all, Ho Chi Minh did ask the US for help against French colonialists before resorting to China and Russia for help, but the US rejected them because they were allies with the French (the original oppressors). In the end, this war was pointless, and millions of lives were lost because of communism and democracy; the Vietnamese on both sides just wanted to reunite the country but the French and Geneva Conference were the root cause of the wars that followed in Indochina.
Mostly true, just 1 point is not complete true. Ngô Đình Diệm was assassinated because his Buddhism suppression for Catholicism favor, cause disloyal to the troops and officers, he even said to a high-rank officer "Put your Catholic officers in sensitive places. They can be trusted.", ironic, that officer is a Buddhism and many of high-ranking officers are Buddhism due it is most major religion in Vietnam. Diệm banned and suppressed any Buddhism protests in violent (shoot unarmed monks), the peek of crisis is Priest Thích Quảng Đức's self-immolation, this in incident, his heart was intact from flame, thus people believe he become Bodhisattva (as same as Saint), cause more distrust among South Vietnamese armies toward president Ngô Đình Diệm, and the crisis violent is out of control. Finally, CIA decide to put the end to President Ngô Đình Diệm before South Vietnam falling a part without face North Vietnam army. Next presidents couldn't clear the mess of Diệm's legacy.
어느 한 개구리 The fuck are you talking about? Don't bragging about what you don't know. Champa population only 2 millions nowday, and most of them stay almost in western mountains of Vietnam and their religion is Muslim since 18th century, do you see Muslim is dominating in South Vietnam? In the past, Champa kingdom was destroyed, massarced and was replace by Vietnamese migration from North. And Champa Kingdom is Middle Vietnam, not even South Vietnam. South Vietnam in 17th century is belong to Khmer Empire, then later, because the great drought, Khmer sell Saigon and many land of Mekong Delta to Dai Viet and many waves of Vietnamese migration to current South Vietnam and become dominating race in Middle and South Vietnam.
@Ngô Tiến Thái That has nothing to do with the original comment, fuck off with your wikipedia link. Totally unrelated to what the person said and you bring here with some link to a massacre lol.
this is not the Vietnamese way of fighthing, it's more like a Japanese one hi, I am Vietnamese, and I've never seen this way of fighting, We Vietnamese do not fight recklessly like this. they fight by surprise guerrilla means (attack by surprise). Vietnam will attack when the enemy is not paying attention, if they have to hit mines or traps, attack immediately you !!. and the guerrillas won't show up before you die, As for gunfire, you never know which direction. and they look like ninja
South Korean soldier a.k.a Green Dragon troops : *Proceed to walk into the forest* Vietcong soldier a.k.a Red Dragon soldiers : We can't have 2 dragons here, only ONE can get out of here !!!!
As a Vietnamese, i am pretty sure, that is not how VIETCONG fight, VIETCONG only charge on their enemies if they think they are already win :). That "Suicide Squad" is how Japanese fight !!!
I know I’m super late to your comment but I just wanna say thank you, you are the only one who’s actually given a good definition of how this would not play out
The combined American and South Vietnamese soldiers died half that of the VC, but the number injured were twice as many as the Vietcong, not as much as a quarter of the VC soldiers died for other reasons (not participating in the war). The job for Vietcong's wounded wounded soldiers is much worse than the US and South Vietnam, that's true because I have thousands of helicopters, curing an injured American soldier, almost then there will be a helicopter to the owner. . get treatment. The Viet Cong left to carry on a stretcher and hike through the rugged mountain forests - which is very dangerous in combat and potentially fatal.
It's all women, the old and the children, but the defenseless person cut off their ears and took away the corpses, the most disgusting bunch I've ever seen in Asia, my dad is one. Vietcong commandos during the war, he said that in a battle he killed 3 Koreans in revenge for a village that was previously massacred by Korean soldiers
Give me a machine gun and thoundsand bullets, I sware I do better whenever I see your kids, your grands, your sisters. My ratio will be 2k4 lol, I'm joking
Great movie , but the director didn't know how the bullet works and the strategy . You dont need to have a close quarter combat while the magazine is full .
The ROK soldier did a better job of fighting the NBA and VC than ours did. Unlike OUR hippie civilians, the South Koreans weren't spineless cowards who refused to support their soldiers.
We actually never rush out like that but rather stay hidden in the bush, only time we do that is to do close combat melee. On the back of our soldiers always have bushes.
This movie is a horror film made by S. KOREA. Most Koreans have two mindset with the Vietnam war. 1. We fought to protect South Vietnam from the communist (something happened in Korea too) 2. We were quite harsh to the veitnamese at that time (as Vietcong were hidden in the civilians). This horror film is poking that guilt feeling of Koreans. If you see the movie, the gosts who haunt Korean soldiers are the Veitnamese gosts who were suffered during the French colonization and the Vietnam war. In the end of the movie, all the soldiers except a blind man are all killed and become other gosts trapped in that place. I JUST WANT TO STRESS TWO POINTS to Vietnamese people. 1. It is true that there were some harsh war crime committed by some Korean soldiers (undeniable. Even if there were other crimes done by Vietcong and American soldiers, we Koreans do not need to talk about others' fault. We just need to admit our faults) 2. But, Vietnamese people also should admit that at that time those Korean soldiers tried hard to protect and help South Vietnamese. It is an undeniable history that North Vietnam invaded South Vietnam and there were numerous bad things done by North Vietnam. And it is also true that Korean soldiers volunteered to help South Vietnamese civilians. They built dams for farmers, provided medical services and foods. 3. The reason why this issue has not been solved conclusively: - Korea's perspective: those soldiers are too old and most of the records are not remained, which means it is nearly impossible to proceed meaningful trial and judgment. - Vietnam's perspective: If Vietnam starts to uncover this issue publicly, then the misconducts done by North Vietnam will be also revealed. Solution: Two nations' private sectors should work together openly to fight against toxic nationalism and conflicts. We need to conduct cooperative research on the past history and should share the findings to both peoples. Those researches should be politically neutral if we want those to be meaningful to us. But.... hmmm I am not sure... both governments are not really interested in this issue. And Vietnamese people, if you want your country not to become like China and CCP, you guys should be concerned about the communist system. I know that there are many smart young Vietnamese. You guys are the future of the Asia, South East Asia and Vietnam. Please be more interested in Liberal democratic system and be less interested in toxic nationalism. Nationalism is like a pandemic in all Asian countries especially in Korea, Vietnam, China and Japan.
@@7721forvalue 2. Vietnam is one nation, there is no such thing as ‘North’ and ‘South’ Vietnam. We were trying to reunite our country. Is it weird that you invade your own country?

You protected the Government of the South but NOT the south people. 3. I explained in the number 2.
I am Korean and have a relative who participated in the Vietnam War. There are some people here who do not understand the nature of the war and criticize the cruelty of the South Korean military, so I offer opinion. First of all, it is a misunderstanding to think that the reason for the Korean military's participation was to make money. In 1950, South Korea was able to defend its liberal democracy with the help of 16 countries in the free world who fought to prevent North Korean communists from invading the country under a U.N. decision. As a result, South Korea has become one of the most secure countries in the world today, a powerful economy, military and culture. South Korea fought braver than the U.S. military in the Vietnam War because it participated in the war under the pretext of reciprocating the help of its allies and participating in the war to defend its allies' liberal democracy, and because it hated communism very much. South Korea sent more than 300,000 soldiers in total, the second largest number after the United States, with more than 15,000 dead and wounded, but killed more per capita enemies than the U.S. military. The Vietnam War was a very dirty war because of the guerrilla warfare of the Vietcongs who didn't even wear military uniforms. Because of this, there were many massacre of civilians because it was difficult to distinguish between enemies that permeated the private sector, civilians who had internal relations with the Betcong, and civilians who did not. It was also extensively committed by Vietnamese Communists, but the fault of the losers rather than winners remains in the history of the Vietnamese people. What we need to understand is that war is inherently cruel and inhumane, so those who started it are the greatest sinners, and history is written on the side of winning and surviving, so it is not all or always right.
Lính Hàn Quốc đã tàn sát, hãm hiếp và tra tấn dã man hàng vạn thường dân vô tội ở miền trung Việt Nam.

@@suoinguontuoitre. You are only talking about the history of the victorious Vietnamese Communists recording and propagating in their favor: the very fragmentary part of the Vietnam War. Viet Cong used tactics that kept themselves from civilians and even did barbaric acts of shooting at South Korean soldiers by hiding themselves behind women of his own kind. Your statement that there are tens of thousands of innocent civilians killed by the Korean army is different from the history I know, but if true, who committed the remaining 15 million civilian killings? Those who killed the most civilians were their own communists.The victorious Vietnamese Communists just don't want to say it. This is the same thing that happened in the Korean War and the North Korean regime says the U.S. military massacred many of the North's people, but in fact, communists killed an overwhelming number of civilians. It was the same in the civil wars of the Soviet Union, China, Cambodia, and so on. The communists don't mind how many civilians killed for their victory. Because Communism, unlike liberal democracy, presupposes dictatorship, so once it is won, it can eliminate all who say their wrongs or control them with fear politics. South Korea's top military commander, Choi Myung-shin, said, "Don't kill one innocent civilian even if you miss 100 Viet Cong guerrillas." The reason is because he thought that losing public sentiment is a victory that cannot win the war and is not welcomed even if it wins. Nevertheless, it is assumed that there was an innocent massacre of innocent civilians due to the South Korean military's retaliatory attacks. The South Korean military did the following to win the hearts of the Vietnamese people, but the following facts were buried by the victorious Vietnamese regime. During the Vietnam War, the Korean military conducted 3,523,364 public health care workers, 19,640 tons of food, 461,764 pieces of clothing, 6,406 farming tools, 3,319 housing and classrooms, 132 bridges, 394km, 902 taekwondo sessions, 6,848 senior citizens and children, and 2,304 entertainment performances. Even now, the U.N. recognizes South Korean troops as the world's best in civilian operations, with the priority of treating local residents and supporting the people when sending troops abroad.
@Sơn Tùng M-TP Official There is a saying in dog's eyes that humans also look like dogs. And if South Korea is a dog, Communists are like wolves. The average dog does not attack the weak people, but the wolf tries to bite and eat anyone who is weak. So communism should be exterminated in civilized society.Because communists do not allow individual free ideas and individuals can be sacrificed for communism.
@Sơn Tùng M-TP Official I can't interpret your writing correctly because I use a translator, but I can see that you hate Korea.And I can see that you are very narrow-minded and probably Vietnamese. Because you were brainwashed by the communist regime. You can go around cursing Korea as much as you want. Still, the fact remains unchanged: Korea is far stronger than other underdeveloped countries such as Vietnam, to an incomparable degree in economic, military and cultural areas. And South Korea is a U.S. ally that helps and uses each other, not one where either side is victimized unilaterally.

The Viet Cong and the South Korean Army were both significant military forces during the Vietnam War, but they had very different roles and characteristics. Here’s a comparison: ### Viet Cong **Background:** - The Viet Cong (VC), also known as the National Liberation Front (NLF), was a communist insurgent group operating in South Vietnam. - They were supported by North Vietnam, the Soviet Union, and China. - The VC aimed to overthrow the South Vietnamese government and reunify Vietnam under communist rule. **Tactics:** - The VC used guerrilla warfare, including ambushes, booby traps, and hit-and-run attacks. - They had a strong knowledge of the local terrain, which they used to their advantage. - The VC also engaged in psychological warfare, aiming to win the "hearts and minds" of the rural population. **Structure:** - The VC was a mix of regular army units and local guerrilla forces. - They often operated in small, highly mobile units. - Many VC fighters were local villagers, which made it difficult for U.S. and South Vietnamese forces to distinguish them from non-combatants. **Impact:** - The VC played a crucial role in the Tet Offensive of 1968, a coordinated series of attacks that had a significant psychological impact on the U.S. public and policymakers. - Despite suffering heavy casualties, the VC continued to be a persistent threat throughout the war. ### South Korean Army **Background:** - The South Korean Army (Republic of Korea Army, ROKA) was a conventional military force. - South Korea was one of the U.S. allies that sent troops to support South Vietnam. - Approximately 300,000 South Korean soldiers served in Vietnam from 1964 to 1973. **Tactics:** - The ROKA conducted conventional military operations, including search-and-destroy missions, counter-insurgency operations, and securing key areas. - They were known for their discipline and effectiveness in combat. **Structure:** - The ROKA was a well-organized and well-trained force, benefiting from U.S. military support and training. - They had access to modern weapons and equipment provided by the U.S. **Impact:** - South Korean forces were highly effective in combat, earning a reputation for their toughness and ability to operate in difficult conditions. - They played a significant role in counter-insurgency operations and in securing areas in South Vietnam. ### Comparison - **Tactics:** The VC relied on guerrilla tactics, while the ROKA used conventional military strategies. - **Support:** The VC were supported by North Vietnam and other communist allies, whereas the ROKA were backed by the U.S. - **Structure:** The VC was a mix of regular and irregular forces, while the ROKA was a conventional army with formal training and organization. - **Impact:** Both forces had significant impacts on the war, but in different ways-the VC through persistent guerrilla warfare and psychological impact, and the ROKA through effective conventional military operations. Each force’s contribution to the Vietnam War was shaped by its unique strategies, support systems, and military structures.
I got brain worms reading these replies. People do horrible shit during war, regardless of race. Koreans, Americans, and Vietnamese people need to man the fuck up and stop fighting about who’s countries “reign supreme” and all that 3rd grade debate “my dad is better than yours” bullshit...

I’m guessing a Vietnamese wrote this. Anyway, I’m pretty sure this movie wasn’t made by patriotic Americans, but by Koreans who were trying to interpret the horrors of war many young Koreans faced in the 1960s. Next time, please acknowledge the fact that not all movies are for propaganda.
Who made this fight scene? VC soldier never face to face combat like this. If the enemy stepped into traps, it means that they were surrounded. If luck, only air support or reinforcement could save them.

The Viet Cong adapted and refined small unit tactics used by the Cubans and Chinese in their own guerilla conflicts. It's probably excusable to depict Chinese human waves , but it gets weird if Viet Cong are shown leaving cover and launching frontal attacks.
