… what? Korea hasn’t existed since 1945. North Korea isn’t part of NATO, sure. But South Korea IS part of NATO.

So, I’m unclear what you mean.

South Korea is just a “global partner” and protections afforded by NATO article 5 do not extend into “global partners”, only to “full members”. So, from a NATO perspective, it would be very convenient to send South Korean troops (or from any other non-NATO country) to reinforce Ukraine and avoid triggering Putin’s claims of direct NATO involvement. In any case, South Korean cooperation would be needed to help handle an eventual influx of North Korean defectors and POWs

South Korea has a lot of useful equipment and the supply chains (factories) to build a lot of it. That equipment is what Ukraine needs more than anything, ideally at a low price (or under generous loan terms)
