Military conflicts leave long-lasting scars and painful memories, whether the fighting took place last year or seven decades ago, when war devastated much of the Korean Peninsula.
To document how war has shaped the lives of three generations of people with ties to Korea, Radio Free Asia recorded testimony of women and men caught up in key episodes of the Korean War – from its start in 1950, to the capture of the USS Pueblo in 1968, to the sinking of a South Korean warship in 2010.
RFA also spoke to an ethnic Korean woman who was forced to flee her home in Ukraine after the Russian invasion on Feb. 24, 2022 – a reminder that conflict transcends both generations and national boundaries.
