Crystal Zone (크리스탈존)

Established in 2011, Crystal Zone specializes in 3D picture framing. Crystal Zone was requested to handle the “We Are All Van Fleet” campaign, of which, they are honored to participate in.

In particular, the disappearance of Captain Van Fleet Jr., an American citizen who was also granted Korean citizenship.

It was a fact that they had no idea about. As it is a very touching story, Crystal Zone felt compelled to do their best to work on frames related to the campaigns.

Their globally-renowned frames are manufactured with specialized 3d technology by using an “optical illusion effect.”

Special mood lights are attached under the pictures to create various looks. Although they are primarily focused on the Korean market, at the request of USFK soldiers, Crystal Zone has agreed to design a special product.

If you have any questions about Crystal Zone and their services, feel free to contact 34469442@crystalzone.co.kr or call 82+2-3446-9442.

Anyone F&C (애니원에프앤씨)

Anyone F&C was launched as a professional distribution group that spreads food culture.

We possess a range of food culture brands, and also have our own distribution platform at home and abroad.

Based on our corporate goal of forming a healthy and happy lifestyle culture, we aim to grow into a happy lifestyle partner that creates positive cultural performances.

We’d like to thank you for participating in the We Are All Van Fleet campaign. Our participation has contributed to world peace beyond the friendship between the Korean and American forces. Without the dedication of the US and UN forces in the Korean War, we are well aware that we would not be here.

A long history has been newly illuminated, and many new iterations of Van Fleet are continuing to preserve the ethos and spirit of the man. We sincerely hope that this will be an opportunity for younger generations to look into and understand the deeper meaning of goodwill and respect for others.

Shambhala CC (샴발라 cc)

Shambhala CC is an 18-hole golf course that was established in Pocheon, Gyeonggi-do in 2020. The geographical features of Pocheon, which boast of natural scenery and mountains, are designed in meticulous detail.

We strived to make the best course in Korea in consideration of time and space. It takes about 50 minutes to reach Shambhala CC from Gangnam, Seoul, and many golfers love it.

At the request of Director Jang Jin Seok of Medicare, to participate in the “We Are All Van Fleet” campaign... Director Jang and I would like to express our gratitude to all the dedicated citizens and officials in Korea.

In particular, Pocheon is known to have seen many battles during the Korean War. Eventually, the battlefield grew into a beautiful and precious setting, making it a gorgeous place to visit for all.

In memory of General Van Fleet’s achievements and the spirit of his son Captain Van Fleet Jr., the purpose of the campaign is to continue to spread goodwill to more people in the future.

SSNC (에스에스앤씨)

SSNC was established in 2018 and is a part of a range of companies such as large corporations, financial sectors, and manufacturing industries.

As an information protection company, it introduces optimized products for the business environment and increases efficiency, as well as security integrated payment management and firewall policy management to protect a company’s valuable assets, security integrated payment management.

With their outstanding aptitude, they continue to grow every year. In the early days of the Korean War, SSNC inspected a lot of data and secured information. Although we struggled at first, under General Van Fleet’s leadership, we were able to make a difference only thanks to numerous U.S. soldiers’ sacrifices.

I want to cherish this freedom that would not have been realized without these efforts. While watching the war between Russia and Ukraine, I also hope for peace in that distant land.

We will strive to become a company that helps uphold the peace. We are all Van Fleet. Spreading the utmost in goodwill and respect for others.

It’s the true power to overcome cutting-edge weapons. Going forward, we will continue to strongly support this campaign.

Daewon Group (대원그룹)

Daewon Group was founded in 1972 by Hyundai Mining. We have been carrying out various projects such as ready-mixed concrete, development, and construction equipment.

Currently, we are focusing on infrastructure development, fuel cell power generation, and construction material development, including the Big Island project, a port redevelopment project that is transforming the future in Geoje.

Based on extensive corporate experience, we provide a total service optimized for energy and infrastructure construction. We feel that Daewon Group has been steadily and diligently playing a role in the fundamental development of the overall Korean industry.

Through this ‘We Are All Van Fleet’ campaign, we pay tribute to the sacrifices made by those who helped make Korea into what it is today. We, too, are primarily engaged in the business of laying the groundwork behind the scenes.

We’ve come to realize the simple truth that there is no great success without hidden sacrifices. Now, business endeavors are active all over the country.

In the end, I think that the sacrifices of those in the background, including Captain Van Fleet Jr., became the true spark that the country needed.

In particular, we deeply mourn the noble hearts of those who sacrificed themselves to protect freedom in a distant foreign land. We will also slowly but surely contribute to this campaign to help promote the healthy development of both Korea and the United States.

Mammoth Coffee Lab (매머드 커피)

Mammoth Coffee Lab was opened up in December 2012 by three acquaintances who shared a vision. Ten years later, Mammoth Coffee has grown to over 150 stores and Mammoth Express, a small take-out specialty store, has surpassed 200 branches. Our growth has been rooted into the vision of delivering the best ingredients and the best taste with the sincerity that even a cup of Americano coffee worth less than 1,000 won can be given to consumers in the most luxurious way.

We are thankful for the We Are All Van Fleet campaign jointly organized by the Korean Health News and U-MEDI.

I participated with all my heart. Van Fleet and his son showed devotion, goodwill and respect for others, true leadership that puts public interest ahead of private interest. Because of this, we are able to reflect on the countless forgotten heroes left behind in the Korean War. Ultimately, we should never forget all that we owe them.

Although the sacrifices of those who sacrificed their lives in the struggle for peace in distant foreign lands can be easily overlooked by future generations, I hope that in a few years, such a voluntary campaign will become an iconic and memorable effort underscoring the friendship between Korea and the United States, in the same way as we see the small but promising beginning of our Mammoth Coffee Lab.

Thank you for all your volunteer work. If you watch US military-related broadcasts, we will keep in mind the feedback of Americans and try to help this campaign flourish, starting with Mammoth Coffee Lab.

Bruster’s Ice Cream (부르스터스 아이스크림)

Bruster’s Ice Cream started in the United States, and South Korea is still its first and only overseas market outside the United States. The Korean military and their families are also unaware that they can taste Bruster’s Ice Cream in Korea. Yet, it’s just the beginning in Korea.

We fully support the We Are All Van Fleet campaign. There is no future for a nation that does not remember the past. I love Bruster’s Ice Cream so much that I really wanted to introduce its taste to Koreans. The founder of Bruster’s Ice Cream recognized our passion and effort, allowing us to take it out of the United States for the first time ever.

A heart that recognizes the sincerity of bold efforts, reflecting on the past and present of Korea and the United States. The lesson of Captain Van Fleet Jr.’s disappearance is clear and simple.

I would like to express my gratitude in that participation is what truly matters, that it is the current peace held together by blood and sweat, and that numerous USFK troops are still committed to this land and upholding the peace. Just as Bruster’s Ice Cream has been loved by many people in the United States, we will endeavor to produce ice cream that many people will love in Korea. Lets move forward together! Lastly, we will do our best to ensure that this campaign is properly established here.

Sojunghan Medicare Center (소중한 메디케어)

Sojunghan Medical Center is growing into Korea’s leading specialized hospital for health examinations. We have been regularly publishing the Korean Health News and are currently serving as publishers. This time, the Korea Health News and U-MEDI mustered up their will and are truly honored to plan We Are All Van Fleet campaign.

We are very grateful that so many people and companies are voluntarily wishing to participate.

Through this project, we’ll be posting information on korea.stripes.com to give better insight into the unique relationship between Korea and the United States.

I sincerely look forward to it growing into a flourishing section that can help promote our friendship.

While watching the war in Ukraine, I am further realizing how important the leadership’s esteem is and how it is rooted in the Van Fleet ethos.

We would like to always thank not only the senior U.S. military but also the current U.S. Forces in Korea. In the future, we will work harder and make efforts to help this campaign grow into an iconic effort symbolizing the friendship between Korea and the U.S. military.
