Introduction

In 1995, a Korean War Veterans Memorial was established in Washington D.C. to honor the American and United Nations soldiers who sacrificed during the Korean War. The memorial consists of a black granite wall and 19 bronze statues, each dressed in combat attire and marching with different strides. At night, spotlights shine on the soldiers' faces on the black wall. Walking here, one may be moved by the melancholy and quietness of the night.
