Kang Mun-bong (October 26, 1923 – February 26, 1988) was a South Korean military officer.
Kang takes credit for lessening the North Korean army's defenses by deflecting the army to the Honam area.[1]
He was well known and highly regarded as a hero after the Korean War.[1] However, due to corruption and conspiracy charges, he was forced to live the final days of his life in the United States.[2]
