The Korean War raged on for the next three years resulting in the deaths of millions, many of them civilians. Though an armistice was signed in 1953, without a peace treaty, the war never formally ended.⁠ ⁠ 70 years later, the remnants of the devastation remain—in the physical and political division between the two Koreas, in the threats of new violence, in the separation of loved ones longing for reunion, and in the trauma carried by the survivors. ⁠ ⁠ For many Korean-American millennials, these survivors are our grandparents. That generation is quickly passing, and with them, the time to hear their voices is running out. Today, we remember their resilience. For those still with us, let’s ask questions and have conversations. For those no longer with us, we preserve their history.⁠ ⁠ Today, we remember a “forgotten war.”⁠
