Reenacting 1950 battle

Listen

Soldiers rehearse a re-enactment of the Nakdong River Battle during the 1950-53 Korean War in Chilgok-gun, North Gyeongsang Province, Tuesday. The U.N. forces’ victory in the battle, which continued from August to September in 1950, marked a turning point in the conflict, helping South Korean and U.N. forces advance north. The rehearsal was for the Army’s commemorative events for the victory, which will take place on Thursday and Friday. / Yonhap
