Korea The Story They Never Told You
Mike Lee
6 episodes
3 months ago
In so many ways the Korean story is also an American story. The US has sacrificed tens of thousands of America lives in east Asia, from WW2 through the Korean war. For over a hundred and fifty years America has tried - and is still trying - to influence events in Korea. Much of the how and why we got to the brink of nuclear war with a tiny nation in east Asia has not just taken place in the blue and white light of our TV and computer screens. Most of it is locked away in the hazy grey vault of history: All but forgotten momentous events, haphazard diplomacy, pure chance and insanely careless decisions have fallen to earth to form the jagged and unstable building blocks to the North Korean nuclear crisis. Former ABC News Correspondent Mike Lee brings you in depth reporting on how, more than once, Korea was thrown under the bus by friends as well as enemies. Now is a crucial moment to better understand one of the most important stories of our time. The Korea Story You Never Heard is made for this moment.

Korea The Story They Never Told You
EP 4 How the Korean War Help Shape Shape Today’s NK Nuclear threat.

The Korean War, which re-defined and hardened the permanent division of the north and south,  was probably inevitable, yet also unthinkable to many.   It was also a war that probably didn’t need to happen.   A war that helped set the stage for the rise of the tiny nation of North Korea to a nuclear power so dangerous that the president of the United States flies half way around the world…twice so far…to bargain for peace.   You might be shocked at the missed opportunities to virtually eliminate the North Korean Regime.  And you may astonished at how close the US led forces came to loosing the South.  Gripping stuff.

Korea The Story They Never Told You
Ep 2 How Korea Was Divided

This episode 2 is in some ways a lesson in what can happen when a great power fails to stand up to a bully, and ends of paying a price later on..  Others may disagree with that and  can argue the point back and forth.   

Let’s unpack some of those developments that made Korea what is it today.    We’ll take a closer look at those crucial moments in the birth of the nations of North and South Korea and ponder what might have been.
