Yes, they were both LIMITED WARs fought against communist aggression. However, having freshly won WWII, only five years earlier, the US was used to fighting to win. So the US INVADED North Korea. That brought in Red China. The war got bloodier because of that action. The Red Chinese drove the allies south, and to near dectruction. GEN MacArther counter-attacked and the Red's were fought to a draw. With an Armistice signed in 1953, holding the line at the 38th Parallel. Having learned those lessons, the US did NOT invade North Vietnam during the Vietnam War.

∙ 12y agoThe Vietnam war and the Korean War are related because in both wars one half of the country wanted to make the other half communist. But the two wars had different results in the Korean war the north stayed Communist and the south stayed capitalist dividing the country, However in the Vietnam war the country was united and became communist. I hope you find my answer helpful.
