Sampo Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 Hi Hugh, I have recently accuired a ROK award document, and my Korean is non exsisitng. I would like to have a full translation so I know what I have exactly. I see this topic is pretty old but I can give it a try! Regards sampo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Posted November 28, 2014 Author Share Posted November 28, 2014 My Korean friend lives in Seoul, and I 'm in Florida, so we're not in frequent correondence. Still, if you can scan the document, perhaps he might give us some idea of what you have. His English is sometimes a little interesting. H Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulsterman Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Any chance your Colonel friend can give you a set of current Korean medal regs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Posted December 30, 2014 Author Share Posted December 30, 2014 Any chance your Colonel friend can give you a set of current Korean medal regs? I've sent him an email. Let's see what happens. If we get anything, I expect it'll be in Korean. Perhaps Rogi can help. Hugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogi Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 (edited) I've sent him an email. Let's see what happens. If we get anything, I expect it'll be in Korean. Perhaps Rogi can help.HughMost of the current medals are on the Korean government's site.If you get the regs, I'll translate them it may take a bit but we'll see what comes up Hopefully he has the old regulations as well, that way we can cover both old and new :) Edited January 4, 2015 by Rogi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulsterman Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 (edited) Theres a guy out there in cyber land trying to write a book on ROK awards. Is that perchance you? I know they changed several times, esp. in the early chaotic times. Id love to know more, esp. about Police medals.

Hugh Posted February 5, 2015 Author Share Posted February 5, 2015 And lo, suddenly, I got an email. The sites are all in Hangul, but they appear to be the current awards system. Maybe Rogi can give us some idea of what they contain.

Rogi Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 I've looked over two of the sites and they seem to be talking about recent issues (at least the photos and captions are of such) of the Korean Orders, I don't see any photos of the older issued Korean orders/medals. I'll try and take a look in more detail when the weekend hits, as my time is tight due to school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
