Answer 2

It was the first practical use of the US strategy of containment in the Cold War, it didn't hurt that it was carried out under the banner of the UN either. The real results of the Korean War were that there were no results. The two Koreas wound up being divided, almost, along the same line, the 38th parallel, as they were after WWII. The South gained a little territory above the 38th on the eastern side of the peninsula and the North gained a little territory below the 38th on the western side. Though, if looked at from the standpoint of containment, the Korean War was a resounding success as there were no more inroads made by the North Koreans or Chinese into South Korea during the Cold War.
