No, there was no winner at the end of the Korean War. It ended with a cease-fire. That is, the sides agreed to stop fighting.
A cease fire is when two oposing armies agree to stop fighting temporarily. This can be an agreement between 2 large armies or 2 small groups on the battlefield. The terms of the cease-fire has to be agreed to on the spot so this is a risky time as either side could accidently start fighting again. This is not the same as a Truce. Sometimes a battle or a war wears down both sides and they call a cease-fire in order to discuss a truce or negotiate for a surrender. The most common application was a cease-fire to attend the wounded and remove the dead.
The Korean War was ended by an Armistice signed in 1953.
