The official name is Republic of Korea (ROK - 대한민국 in Korean). Formed in 1948 when the whole of Korean peninsular was divied in two parts: South Korea and North Korea (the latter supported by USSR, the former by USA). North Korea attacked South Korea in 1950 and the war raged until 1953 when it ended with an armistice - so technically the Korean War has not yet ended.
South Korean camouflage pattern
- Reversible duck hunter spot pattern. Used by ROK Marines, Special Forces and some infantry units - from the late 1960s to 1980 (or later). Also used by Military Cadet School later.
- Non-reversible duck hunter spot pattern. Late pattern? Used primarily by Military School Cadets - 1970s-1990s.
- ROK Marines turtle shell pattern. 1980-1991.
