A the end of the Second World War after the liberation of Korea from Japanese rule, the country was divided into two zones along the 38th Parallel: the industrialised north under Soviet occupation, the south under the Americans. The 1950-1953 Korean War came to an end with the division of the country along the 38th Parallel. To the north, with the backing of communist Chinese and Soviet troops, a Stalinist state was fully established; while in the south predominantly American forces with the backing of the United Nations supported the régime there. This division, which reflected ancient factions in Korean society, helped shape geopolitics for the remainder of the twentieth century. The border stretches from the west to the east coast of the Korean peninsula, is 4 km wide and is known as the Demilitarized Zone, or DMZ, something of a misnomer considering the huge number of military personnel (over two million troops) and matériel in position. Is it Fair? Life is never fair.

Draw ? The Chinese kicked the UN back to the start line , they didn't expect the Chinese to get involved so seeked a way out which is how it stands today , why cant the people in the US admit defeat ? IE Korea a draw , Vietnam was winning ? So what was gained from either war ?

The U.N. did not win the Korean war. It was concidered a draw.

It was basically a stale-mate (cease-fire) - it started and ended with the "38th parallel" dividing North and South.

Neither side won. It ended with a ceasefire. No win No lose.

Let's see:
US and our allies achieved our war goal. (Protecting S. Korea.)
N. Korea and China did not achieve their war goal. (Conquering S. Korea.)
Sounds like we won.
