Why wasn’t South Korea recognized in their work in Iraq?
December 28th, 2009 | 
Author: Why wasn’t South Korea recognized in their work in Iraq?
I was looking through videos of the war in Iraq on youtube and saw the title, "Korean Army in Iraq." I watched it because I had no idea South Korea was in Iraq. It turned out that South Korea deployed 3000+ soldiers there to bring peace and rebuild iraq while U.S. soldiers were fighting..same with Britain.
While watching the video, I saw that South Korea taught Iraqi civilians and did:
Material & equipment support
Joint Checkpoint constructions
Rifle range constructions
Build barracks
Forest Ranger station construction
Military team training (taught civilians to defend themselves)
Vocational training centers
Computer classes
Taught appliance maintinence
Vehicle construction
heavy equipment operation
paved roads
public health clinics
town halls
schools
sewers
deep wells
public parks
Hospitals
dentists
surgeries
Planted grasses, plants, etc
Soccer
Created childrens day (like a field day with band playing, games, etc)
and many more.
Yeah I know we (U.S.) did all the struggling work and all that, same with Britain but I never heard of South Korea in Iraq. All the time we hear U.S. soldiers in Iraq but why not Korea?
I think if the U.S. did some fighting back then and did what South Korea did, the war would have ended by now. I thought the whole point of the war was to bring peace and restore Iraq. It seems though as if South Korea did that to some parts of Iraq. I would like to see us do something like that.
Also, I just learned that South Korea had a big part in Vietnam too. What amazes me was that during the vietnam war, their kill ratio was 25:1 where a average American soldier was 9:1. But Korea was not recognized in their work in vietnam too.
They also fought in the gulf wars and they are currently in Afghanistan.
So the overall question is:
Why wasn’t South Korea recognized in their work during wars?
Why are they so little recognized when they played a huge part?
PLEASE no racial comments.
its whatever news that sells…and apparently, media does not deem this interesting enough or predicts that it would not generate the same amount of viewer/readership that some accidental shooting or an operation planned from bad intel would garner.

does the soccer league Arsenal have a copyright on all sports equipment, like if you used their name?
like I was going to use the name for a snowboad company would I get sued and do they have a copy right on it that I can’t use the name
The name Arsenal is trademarked (not copyrighted, there is a difference), as is also Gunners. Late last year they applied for a trademark on Gooners as well. And, yes, they will sue you; they’ve done it before. Successfully.
You might argue that a snowboard company generates no confusion with Arsenal Holdings plc or its products and therefore no violation of trademark ensues, and you may have a valid case. But even so, Arsenal can out-lawyer and not even dip into petty cash. I don’t think you want to take the risk.
OTOH, I agree that Arsenal is going downhill.
