Post; [Korean War] Kim Chang-Ryong


Hello people, my name's Sawyer and I'm a soldier like some of you here. But for now I really DO need your help : what do you know about this man, Kim Chang-Ryong? He was a Brigadier General in the Korean Army before being shot dead in 1956. Can any of you tell me more? I need everything you know, that's vital. Thanks, GI Joes!

Can you read Korean Sawyer? If so I can provide you with links to information in Korean from some of my students.

I'm in China so no, I don't have access to much information other than what I can locate on the web. I'll ask my students today and get back to you what they give me.

The quick and dirty is that this guy was a traitor and was summarily executed for that reason. Here's your Korean links...

How much do you understand about his past and the government he was working for? He was killed for his crimes of collaborating with the Japanese and for his involvement as the strongman for a dictator responsible for torture and murder. He was executed for his crimes in an extra-judicial incident. When the only law of the land is the word of a madman who was also a traitor to Koreans and was in bed with the Japanese during WWII what other recourse do you have?
