The Korean War, 1950â1953. The Korean War began as a civil war between North and South Korea, but the conflict soon became international when, under U.S. leadership, the United Nations joined to support South Korea and the Peopleâs Republic of China (PRC) entered to aid North Korea. handful of U.S. and British POWs in North Korea opted against repatriation as well, choosing instead to live in Communist China or North Korea. The armistice was only a ceasefire agreement, not a formal peace treaty ending the war.
On June 25, 1950, the Korean War began when some 75,000 soldiers from the North Korean Peopleâs Army poured across the 38th parallel, the boundary between the Soviet-backed Democratic Peopleâs Republic of Korea to the north and the pro-Western Republic of Korea to the south. This invasion was the first military action of the Cold War.
