Скачать или смотреть The 1968 Assassination Attempt That Nearly Ignited War in Korea | The Blue House Raid

In January 1968, a North Korean special operations unit penetrated deep into South Korea with a single objective: assassinate the South Korean president at the Blue House in Seoul. The mission confirms how close the Korean Peninsula came to catastrophic escalation not through invasion, but through covert action designed to shatter political stability from within.
This documentary reconstructs the Blue House Raid as a Cold War crisis distinct from routine DMZ confrontations, tracing its planning, execution, failure, and aftermath in strict chronological order. It examines how a narrowly foiled assassination attempt transformed South Korea’s internal security state, reshaped alliance crisis management, and reinforced a model of asymmetric pressure that nearly triggered all-out war without a single conventional battle being fought.
