Well, we were fighting for the freedom of the Koreans who did not want to fall under a communist government. Few of the Koreans in the US supported the North, and any who did kept it to themselves.
In those years, discrimination and hatred was against much more broad groups than your question suggests.
Koreans, Vietnamese, Chinese, Japanese, Asians generally - were one big 'bad' group...hated and discrimnated against as one,by many. An Asian, if considered anything, would be Japanese. As in the decade before, all Asians were considered Japanese, with the hatred reserved for an avowed enemy and earned during Pearl Harbor and WW2, still very fresh to many.
Unlike the US of Japanese decent in WW2 I don't believe the Koreans were particularly segregated or put in camps by the government.
Finally, as a percentage of the population, Asian in total was very small and Korean virtually miniscule (if a differentiation was even made), compared with now.

How do the Vietnam veterans get treated?
I wish I knew what you meant by "treated?" If wounded, naturally they may have initially been treated by a fellow Soldier or Marine and/or a Medic or a Navy Corpsman. If the wound/s were serious, hopefully they would be choppered out to a Hospital. If you mean being "treated" upon arriving home by U.S. citizens , well, that's a different story. In many cases VN Vets were treated very badly in public areas such as airports by anti-war individuals or groups. That also depended a lot of what part of the Country they were in. San Francisco and Berkeley CA would probably be the worst place to be if you wore any type of a U.S. Military uniform. If you mean "treated" for wounds upon arriving back to the U.S. then they would have been treated medically at a VA Hospital.
