Abstract
The problems of Korean service in the Red Army are considered. It is noted that Koreans, both Russian citizens and emigrants from Korea, voluntarily joined the Red Army from the first days of its existence, and then Soviet Koreans were drafted into it on a general basis. Most of the Koreans served in the Siberian Military District and in the Special Far Eastern Army. Special attention is paid to the problems of Russian-Korean relations. The conclusion is made that the absence of racial and national discrimination in the Red Army did not exclude problems and contradictions in the relations between Russian and Korean servicemen. But these problems did not have a serious impact on the combat capability of the Red Army
