63 nations from all continents took part in the Korean War, which was an international war. These aspects of the Korean War point to the potential for global veteran issues. In order to strengthen veterans' public diplomacy in time for the 70th year of the Korean War's armistice, this study will look at the current situation of veterans with nations that took part in the conflict. It will also make suggestions for future directions and tasks. From the standpoint of broadening the reach to include material assistance countries, expressing their intention to help South Korea, and strengthening veterans of current UN veterans, this study offered suggestions for how to promote veterans' public diplomacy. There are many veterans institutions in Korea, and it is anticipated that the active development of dark tourism employing them would help increase interest in the Korean War both domestically and abroad. The Korean War is a crucial event that brought the world and Korea together. It's time to prepare for sustainable international veterans affairs while paying tribute to the past through public diplomacy among veterans.

Korea has been in a truce state for about 70 years, not an end-of-war country. Even in a situation with this specificity, Korea's veterans' system is insufficient compared to other countries. In addition, Korea's veteran policy lacks an "honor of veterans" system compared to veterans' advanced countries (the United States, Canada, Australia, France, and Germany), and a representative example of it is the "support system for veterans and discharged soldiers." After analyzing the major veterans' policy systems in the veterans' developed countries (US, Canada, Australia, France, and Germany), this study suggests that we should expand the major anniversaries related to veterans and suggest a policy alternative as it is necessary to introduce public awareness education on the promotion of veterans. In the end, it is necessary to properly recognize the pain and agony of division to the generations before and after, laying the foundation for the advanced country-type veteran affair system.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the compensation law for Special Mission Executors enacted to compensate for sacrifices for the state based on the policy framework proposed by Gilbert and Terrell and to present the limitations and development directions of the compensation policy. In particular, this study presents the characteristics of each dimension of the policy through the bases of social allocation, the types of social provisions, the strategies for the delivery, and the ways to finance. Through the analysis, We deduce problems of the compensation law for Special Mission Executors. Representative limitations of the compensation policy can be summarized as follows. Due to extreme selectivism, the limitations are the narrow selection criteria of the targets, the benefits which are not out of proportional to contributions, delayed benefits and the decrease in the size of public resources. These limitations suggest that the compensation policy for Special Mission Executors does not contain the significance of the Patriots and Veterans Affairs Policy. The value the Patriots and Veterans Affairs can be considered as a means for repaying the contributions who sacrificed for the nation. Therefore, the government needs to make efforts to develop a policy with the true significance of the Patriots and Veterans Affairs.
