Distributor Note

In August 1945, following the surrender of Japanese troops in Korea, American and Soviet
negotiators agreed to an administrative division of the peninsula at the 38th parallel. With the
nation divided between two opposing political systems, the seeds of civil war had been planted.

Disc 1 follows the fi rst year of the Korean conflict. On June 25, 1950, North Korea unexpectedly attacked and overran US and South Korean troops, pushing them to the Pusan perimeter. Aided by General MacArthur’s brilliant counterattack at Inchon, the North Koreans were driven back past the 38th parallel to the Yalu River, the boundary of Chinese Manchuria. In November the Chinese launched their fi rst offensive. UN forces were pushed back below the 38th parallel, and in January of
1951 evacuated Seoul.

Disc 2 follows the fi nal years of the conflict. Beginning in February 1951, UN forces launched
a counterattack that culminated in the recapture of Seoul. After a series of offensives and counteroffensives by both sides, the front stabilized around the 38th parallel. A truce was eventually
signed on July 27, 1953, but a comprehensive peace treaty remains elusive to this day.
