Erasing history is shameful, even if that history is shameful. People rag on Japan for not properly teaching about their role and atrocities in WWII, and with good reason.its the same reason neonazis think that they were the good guys in WWII, americans think they were the good guys in Vietnam and the korean war, etc.
South Korea was a fascist state run by collaborators from the IJA occupation. Enslaving your population to fight in another nation’s civil war and chain atrocities while MacArthur argues for the nuclear extermination of China, which you tried to invade after beating the North Koreans, is generally considered a bad thing to good people.
That the Kims established a monarchy after being embargoed for most of century is what you call the benefit of hindsight, and I can tell you one thing, allied intervention on South Korea behalf sure wasn’t done with the assassination of their dictator twenty years later in mind.

I’d love to hear your take on why the USA was the bad guys in the Korean War.
Are you parroting the statements of the North?
I wouldnt call the US, the “good guys”, but just better than the alternative.
