The Cold War seems like a time long ago, but it defined the 20th century with its ideological battles and countless wars. One of the forgotten wars of this era is the Korean War that was fought between North Korea -- which was supported by China and the Soviet Union -- and South Korea that was supported by a combined force of the United Nations.

The Korean War is the reason we have two countries in the Korean Peninsula today separated by the 38th parallel line. The Korean War killed millions of people, including close to three million civilian casualties. This war shaped the region into what it is today, and here are some bizarre stories no one told you about the Korean War.
