The individuals selected as the Top 10 Heroes include ▲ General MacArthur, who successfully led the Incheon Landing Operation ▲ General Van Fleet, who served alongside his son and lost him on the battlefield ▲ Colonel Kim Young-ok, son of independence activist Kim Soon-kwon, who was named one of the '16 Greatest War Heroes of the United States.'
The tribute video conveys the message, "The freedom, prosperity, and peace we enjoy today are thanks to the sacrifices of veterans who came from afar," and "We will forever remember the sacrifices and dedication of the Korean War heroes."
Through the video, Samsung expressed its gratitude to the veterans who contributed to building today's Republic of Korea and conveyed the strong friendship between Korea and the United States, which has lasted for 70 years, to the world.

In recognition of these efforts, Samsung became the first Korean company to receive the 'Patriot Award' from the American Legion in 2013.
