The investigations of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, Republic of Korea (TRCK) under Roh Moo-hyun administration about the incidents of genocide conducted by the US armed forces in Korea can be highly acclaimed for their attempts themselves. Most of all, these investigations were the first organized approaches by the Korean government after investigations of Nogun-ri incident around 2000. And the investigations on war crimes committed by the United States, the best ally of Republic of Korea, had a special historical meaning of reestablishment of a relationship between two countries.
However, given the ultimate goal of historical reconciliation and unification of Korean people, it must be pointed out that there were many problems in the course of promotions and receiving applications of the investigations. For example, there were serious structural and institutional problems like insufficient promotions about the activities of TRCK, short time limit of one year for applications, investigations only on the incidents that had been applied for, compensation for damage only to the applicants, lack of expert knowledge about aerial bombing, restricted time limit of four year for the investigations.
The problems produced by TRCK under the command of Lee Young-jo, the commissioner of TRCK who was appointed by the president Lee Myoung-bak, showed different characteristics with those of former commissioners. They had strong political nature. In fact, the activities of TRCK under the direction of commissioner Lee should be analyzed with its close relations with historical attacks by the Lee Myoung-bak administration such as construction of national museum of Korean contemporary history and revision of the history curriculum.
The most important feature of the reports of investigations under commissioner Lee is a sharp increase in the number of cases that are impossible to establish the truth. Most of the reports of investigations under commissioner Lee regarded the U.S. armed forces’ war crimes as the impossible-to-establish cases, while all of the reports of investigations under former commissioners succeeded in clearing up the truth of cases. And the reason of the failure of the establishment of truth was that it was impossible to confirm wilful intentionalities of harming civilians because most incidents had happened in the enemy-occupied areas or battlefields.
