That was half the issue with the initial killings, as an aside. They were planned top down affairs. The dictator straight up gave quotas to local police saying “you need to find this many communists and register them for political reeducation” so the police just drummed up illiterate substinence farmers and had them sign they they were communists. Then they gathered them all up and shot them.
Because of the whole US involvement in the very creation of the south Korean state probably. Not that someone who has no idea about that is to blame for it since it’s literally not taught in any way and even colloquially known as the forgotten war since less than a decade after it ended.
Why should the US be in any way involved in any of these?
Did you read any of them? They directly talk about the US involvement in more than a few.
They’d be very upset if they could
