@@mysticusa His wife died a day after him. :( Hope they at least got to reunite again after 2010 and before they passed. EDIT: They reunited 2 weeks before the couple passed.
@@deempax Even after 60 years, she still loves him and so did he. My mother died when I was 8. But I can tell the pain that they went through especially Suleiman is different. He saved Ayla's life and spent so much time with her. Missing someone that much and waiting for the day to be reunited again is probably one of the worst things ever.
Turkish people are warm-blooded, helpful, compassionate and humble. As an American living in Turkey, I say that you cannot find such nice people anywhere.
As a black American I lived in turkey 2 years 6 months it was hard but I will never forget the kindness of the people I felt more safe there then in America
AHMED FRHAN thanks me and my king are planning on coming back one day to see the family that helped us I meet him online he was from Ghana and me America we are not Muslim or Christian and a Muslim family saved us we talk about them every day they asked for nothing in return it changed my life forever they aren’t rich people but RICH IN SPIRIT Allah peace and blessings

A man on his twenties in war and raising a child is unbelievable, now adays biological fathers don't do this to their children,that shows how man he was a kind hearted man. I couldn't stop crying
A warzone is hardly an ideal place to raise a child, but the fact that Suleyman and his friends managed to do it is very impressive. And I bet he never had any parenting experience before that. He was still so young himself.
i think adopting orphans and taking care of them wherever they were stationed (they moved place to place and had to take the children with them sometimes) helped them mentally too. korean war was not just about shooting and bombing. especially in turkish vs chinese fronts there were many occassions they relied solely on bayonets and knives like in the ww i. they probably witnessed terrible things we can't dream of. keeping children relying on them probably assisted to keep their humanity intact and raised their morale in a fight thinking if they fall, children would do too.
@@whiteknight5019 There is a movie called Ayla about this, unfortunately I don't know if it has an English dub. By the way, it's not Suliman, it's Süleyman
I am Korean and I honestly think Turkish people are the most unique people out there. They are kind, tough as a nail, and genuine. Thank you Turkey for all this support and the brotherhood should last forever.
Thank you for your kind words. I think the same about Korean people. Some even say that Turkic people and Korean people are related to each otheer. Because we are the Children of the Altaic region
I had a turkish old man that lived next door to me when I was young and he used to tell me we were brothers because I was from Korea. I just thought he was being kind but now I understand...there is a bond between the two countries that the younger generation unfortunately don't remember. Long live the brotherhood 🇰🇷🇹🇷
Im a millenial but when I watched Empress Ki. I discovered that Turkish,Mongols and Koreans are related to eachother. For me they are the same. I see no difference between them.
B3rfinnn_ Easy, during tue Yuan Dynasty era, Mongols,Turks were already related to eachother and also they were both fighting against the Yuan Dynasty.. Goryeo a kingdom in Korea was once conquered by the Yuan..
It is very moving to watch this document already, but when you know the circumstances the Turkish soldiers were in, it's even more impressive that they were able to build an orphanage and these stories still happened. Turkey was still a poor country at that time and US Secretary of State John Foster Dulles at the time gave a speech to the senate saying Turkish soldiers would cost 23 cents a month, compared to $70 a month per US soldier. Even in such hardship this man and many alike took care of all those children because those kid had suffered the most during that war. A truly commendable story!
Thank you for the information.. but I found the secretary of state quite insulting.. 23 cents a month? Turks dont fight for money, they fight for honour and justice
Suleyman died in 2017, but his last wish came to reality seeing Ayla before he passes away. This is really though to watch, thanks for everyone who made this happen

You don’t have to be Turkish or Korean to appreciate the humanity that these two people and their families shared. A shout out to those who made the reunion possible and also, many thanks to the makers of Kleenex.
@Khan Will I’m wondering if you understood my comment. What I meant was that this was such a great story about human kindness that everyone, wherever they live and wherever they come from, not only Turkish or Korean people, could appreciate it and learn from it. I am an English-born descendant of European Jewish families, now living in America - and I was deeply moved, to the point of tears, by the love and humanity of both the Turkish soldiers and the Korean girl who became a woman and never forgot.
I'm Korean, and I can tell confidently that many Koreans thank Turkish people for coming first when the Korean War broke out. In fact, my great grandfather was saved by Turkish Army. Althoug he passed away, I still remember him often saying that he cannot forget the Turkey soldier who saved him in the mountains and took care of him. okay, guys. I can see that there's people saying things abt Filipino soldiers. Of course I acknowledge their help and sacrifice, and of course we thank every single soldiers who took part in the war. However, this was a comment just mentioning what my great grandfather experienced, and does not mean that Turkish army was the only help to us Koreans :)
The moment that he said he spared money to give her as pocket money; which is a Turkish tradition on religious festivals, is really touching. That is the sign they have really deep father - daughter bond
@Sahipkıran Ah I see, I meant why he couldn't take her with him through legal means...the Korean government should have been able to allow him to adopt her. I'm also surprised how he couldn't keep in contact with her after and met her only many years later. But it's good they found each other again even if it took them many years.
@@sunnyv7745 He badly wants her to adopt but unable to find her because her name was change and the records of the orphanage was burned. That's why it takes 60 years for them to reunite by the help of many people.
During war and chaotic situation I don't think Korea government has time to entertain such request for adoption especially from outsiders..and most country would not allowed their orphans to be taken away from their country..
I am South Korean. My head hurts because I cried so much. I couldn't see her anymore when she said to her granddaughter, "This is the country where grandfather lives." Please protect Ayla from the sky of Grandpa. I love you.
Ben koreliyim Kore Savaşı sırasında birçok ulus Amerikan baskısı ile savaşa katıldı. Türkiye adalete yardım eden bir ülkedir. Ayrıca askeri bir hayatım oldu ve kendi hayatımı adaletle sürdürmenin çok zor olduğunu anladım. Kore Savaşı'nda ölen Türk askerlerine minnettarım. Ayrıca, esas olarak modern ve modern tarihi öğretmeyen Kore, özveriyle saygı duymalıdır.
He said he would not die without seeing Ayla and he died shortly after meeting her. I can never forget. Greetings to our Korean friends, you will never walk alone.
The Turkish Army(military) has a long history as one of the toughest and bravest troops in the world. Yet, they have a vey warm heart. Thanks for your help during the Korean War.
I cried 80% of the movie. I am Chinese. Even though none of my ancestors had fought the war but I still feel bad for people who lost their lives and also feel guilty of what the Chinese government has done to this world. Salute to these brave warriors who fought for freedom and democracy. I wish one day families from South and North Korea will be reunited. China becomes a democracy. (also, a better political situation in Turkey!) love from a peace-loving Chinese.
Chinese nation is great, but with bad government, unfortunately. I hope one day Uyghurs will live normal lives in their homeland and China will be democracy! Greetings from Azerbaijan! 🇦🇿
Every country has a bad past even Turkey has one for example the Armenian Genocide or the killing of Kurds but the only thing that matters is the respect for each other
When he fed her the desserts, the way Ayla opens her mouth you can see her eyes smiles like she’s 5yrs old again. Faith of humanity restored from story like this
I was adopted and raised by a Turkish family 40 years ago. I owe them a lot. Unfortunately the world media always expose the Turkish people differently then who they are! Visit Turkey and meet with these people you will see what I meant! They have huge heart for everyone without separate who you are. Loves and hugs from America.
Turkish people are nice, even to animals. They feed stray cats and dogs in their country and take care of them so strays there aren't afraid of people.
That must be a crazy feeling. Being a grown 60 year old woman, with all your wisdom and experience. Then suddenly, you're a 5 year old little girl again holding on to your dad's arm.
Suleyman left quite an impression on Ayla, so of course, she would remember him well. I thought the part in the movie where he tried to sneak her out of Korea in a box was made up, but Ayla herself said it really did happen lol.
Very true, it's amazing that after all those years, they were like litte ones and like all of a sudden time has stopped and rewound to help bond and effection as if they were never seperated.. All with the help of Allah cc. becouse right at the beginning the intentions of the soldiers we call "niyet" was so pure for taking care of them bcouse islam pays massive importance on the care of orphans, so much so that it is ingraned in attitude in all of muslims. meanwhile thank you for your lovely comment.
Bu filmi bugün bir türk olarak izledim ve çok ağladım. Türk birinin çocuğa böylesine merhamet edip sahiplenmesi beni cok mutlu yaptı. İyi insan olmanin dili dini ırkı mezhebi olmadığını biliyordum. Dünyadaki herkese iyiliği göstermişsin sen Süleyman amcacığım mekanin cennet olsun inşallah. Ölmeden önce buluşmalarına çok sevindim. Ama filimde küçük yaşta onu bırakıp gitmene cok ağladım çok
" İyi insan olmanin dili dini ırkı mezhebi olmadığını biliyordum." demek ki bir sey bilmiyorsun. hepsi kültür meselesidir. türk kültüründe cocuklar kutsaldir. bu her kültürde böyle degildir. ama türk kültürüde artik degisiyor. islam kültürüne dönüstü. cocuklari evlendiriyorlar.

I'm Turkish and immigrated to US 22 years ago. 15 years ago I wanted to buy house and went to a house thinking that I could never afford the price. When owners asked for where I am from he shook and stood up to shake my hand again. He said he was a Korean veteran and he saluted the Turkish soldiers he fought with. He praised them and said he knows how Turkish people can share their bread even they don't have enough. He dropped the price drastically so that I can buy it. I salute my people who fought there again. Things are different now but I hope we go back to our roots soon.
I was born during the Korean War to an American father and Korean mother. I never knew Turkey was our ally. This needs to be taught in our schools. It upsets me that it’s not known. They risked their lives as American troops did. They are our heroes.
Google이 올바르게 번역하길 바랍니다. 안타깝게도 2017년 12월 7일 한국 참전용사 쉴레이만 베이(Süleyman Bey)가 세상을 떠났습니다. 그의 아내는 그로부터 하루 뒤인 2017년 12월 8일에 사망했습니다. Ayla는 병원에 있는 영적 아버지를 방문했습니다.
I had no idea that the Turkish people sent troops to fight in the Korean War. What an eye opening documentary for me. Thank you to the Turkish troops for fighting for my country and giving my parents an opportunity to survive. My heart will forever be grateful !!!
Thats why we are brother countries.2 countries don't ask visa each other because of Turks helped and died in the war there with Koreans too. It is pretty famous. How comes you have never heard that? lol
Dont you also know that Turks and Koreans were brother nations from the same root? Our first alliance was 103BC when Joseon and KokTuruk formed alliance to fight the Han Chinese
@@stevenl5006 Oh are you Korean too? Btw still nowadays some of the Turks have eyes like Asians :) some part looks more European because in the Ottoman period, Sultans married with foreigner women.
I was a Korean orphan and was adopted by an American family. This story really touched my heart. Thank you for this wonderful story and much thanks to all the Turkish Soldiers who fought for my freedom!
31:18 I was crying all the time but I laughed when he brought pocket money for Ayla. As a Turkish, it is a tradition to give pocket money to your children and grandchildren. Mr. Süleyman really thinks that Ayla is his daughter. 😭
You should know that the love and respect for Korea in Turkey is unconditional. Really i can say everyone loves or at least respect Korea, You can not find 1 person out of the 83 million who will hate korea. Maybe you can find people with no opinion, but not one with bad opinion. Korean people are much like us Turkish people, You are respectfull, honorfull, you care about your traditions, culture, you are gratefull and down to earth people. Not cocky at all. You love and respect your elderly, Not many nations has these characteristic, maybe this is also the reason why Turks feel bounded with Korea, maybe it is the blood what unite us, because if we go back in history, the Turkish homeland is the Altaic region, from modern day China up until Caucausus the entire north
I m from Turkey and living usa. Korean kids lost their father and mother their life at the Turkish base at that time still hurting our hearth . I appreciate our soldiers who cared those kids and share their food with them
RIP Mr. Suleyman. You are greatly missed by a lot of folks in Korea. I just couldn't imagine how one can have such a big heart and a lot of love for a child, who is not his.
Turkish people are maniacs, its their strong feel for love of someone they think they need to protect. Look at turkish Ultras in football, they are crazy, because they love it THAT much. Same story goes for tourists in turkey or anything else. Turkish people mainly act out of heart & instinct. Turkish people feel strongly responsible of someone who cant defend themselves especially children / animals and protect and feed them generally if they are able to in general, thats why its globally known that turkish people love cats. They love to teach and share anyone about their culture to make them feel comfortable and make it seem like a warm environment even if its war out there, in Aylas Case. Napoleon once said he only would have needed turks in his army to rule the world, because he knows turks only see do or die, death or glory, lose your soil or protect your homeland whatever it takes. Their bond with allies is a literal thing for them and not only "on paper" they take these bonds seriously and also get emotional because of that.
Geez, the fact that he tried to put her in a box to take her with him. I am glad she remembers that and did not just feel he had abandoned her. Obviously it tore him up to leave her.
@Robin W it is hate definitely when you mention the attrocities commited against armenians but ignoring the much worse catastrophic mass killings against turks. And this is called racism. I sincerely beleive that you are a racist and i hope some day your soul heals.🙏
Are you form Cuba? Cuba have a special place in our heart. We Turks love Cuba very much. It’s a beautiful nation and culture. 🇹🇷❤️🇨🇺 We Turks love all countries wich are similar like us. And Cuba is one of this beautiful countries. I hope and wish my whole life to can visit one time Cuba. I wish for you, your daughter and nation all best and health. Viva la Cuba 🇹🇷❤️🇨🇺
(Im korean) My mother always told me that in Korean war Turkish helped a lot and they are considered as a brother country even they dont look like a typical "asian"(like Chinese or japanese) and when i was young I was amazed by that. Because of course I was too little to know that there are people outside of Korea who can be called as brother even they dont look like a korean😅. And watching this make me cry 😭😢 and be thanked a lot to Turkish. Life is full of love and mysterious encounter. So sad that they were reunited too late. Both of them tried to meet each other again. That part make me so sad. That she was too little and lack of information.
actually we are asian turks came to anatolia from mongolian steppes they are still slanted eyed turks in central asia such as kazakhstan, kyrgyzstan, uzbekistan etc
I knew this story from a Turkish movie called Ayla the daughter of war and I was shocked how much he cared for her this whole time and she's not even his blood. Turkish are really kind people.i hope to visit it one day
The most impressive and emotional real life story I have ever watched and heard in my life. And in a war. I bow respectfully to this brave and compassionate Turkish soldier. It is very impressive that they found each other again and hugged each other with the same love, even though 60 years have passed. It is impossible not to cry while watching all this. Suleyman is a real father with a big heart. In his eyes, Ayla is still his 5-year-old little daughter. And finally, love knows no barriers. Love has no language, color, race or religion. The most important thing in this life is to be human and remain human. I have infinite respect for the brave Turkish soldiers who fought and died for the freedom of Korea without expecting anything in return. With my respect and love to the Turkish and Korean people. Toronto, Ontario, CANADA 🇨🇦 🇹🇷🇰🇷
What a touching story. Sadly I just read that Mr Birbiley passed away a few years ago (aged 91), and his wife passed away one day later. I'm glad they were all able to reunite before their time on earth was over.
The way Ayla cried made me cry too. Even though he didn't understand it, speaking to him in Korean impressed me a lot. She asked why he didn't come sooner and it made me cry more. Even though they don't understand each other, it touched my heart to see Ayla and Süleyman Baba like that.
If are you serving in Turkish Armed Forces its mean you are NOT to be reach man. After service when are you retired with honor you have only a few money for living. No more no less...
I actually think he probably speaks a bit of Korean since he was there for so long. So he probably understood everything she said, just may not be able to speak perfectly back. You could tell his wife was confused a bit, but Suley definitely could understand her.
I couldn’t stop crying. As a Korean Who loves Turkey, I adore this documentary. Thank you for fighting for a little country without asking anything in return. I hope he’s rest in peace now and thank you for saving all those little lives.

Yes because he was the only parent-figure in her life and where she experienced parental love for 1 1/2 years when she was 4-5 years old..... so sad. There were many orphans and kids separated during the war.
This picture Ayla the orphaned girl kissing the soldier should won an Oscar -- a picture that captured the bond and love between 2 different people that lasted 60years .. such a an amazing story ❤
But the traslation is not 100% correkt. 25:29 He said here they've (North-korean/Chinese) killed her father and her mother. The translation said: She lost her parents. 29:34 He said here after his friend was wounded, after that the CHINESE shot in his Head. That wasn't translated right on purpose...
I've heard about the relationship between Korean and Turkey from my father but didn't really understand it. Watching this documentary made me realize why we appreciate and consider Turkey our brother nation. Thank you so much for all the Turkey veterans who served and helped the Korean people during the war

Ayla said in her letter that she owes everything to her father. One thing she didn't know is that her father owes her too. She gave him purpose during the war. She gave him the will and courage to survive. That's what I felt too since I became a father. My daughter gave me purpose. This story is beautiful. I wish Ayla and her family well. ❤
My grandfather Ismail Uygur has fought in Kore as a Turkish Sgt.Fc. He told me many times about those orphans who sang the song of Ankara with tears. In 2017 before he passed away, he lost his consciousness in hospital for a while. When he woke up, he did not recognise his own son. His first question to him was, are we in south or north ? When my father answer that in south, he answered Thank God. This is how wars make effect on people's life. Sad but true story...
I am sorry for your loss, after all these years war still breaks out in parts of world.

@@AndalusianPrince There wasn't an Armenian genocide. Please make some real research before accusing people of doing something they actually didn't. Bruh there are real Ottoman records about Armenians, Armenians formed gangs and hurt Turkish people during WW1. That's why they were relocated, but were unfortunately killed on their way, by diseases. Some misinformed Turks also did attack them, but they only did it because they thought Armenians were there to hurt them. You can also see Ottomans recorded relocated Armenians' properties, to return them to Armenians after the war is over. Even if we forgive Armenians, they continue to accuse us of genocide even in these days because of wrong history knowledge. I remember being on a plane with a couple of Armenians, and after I told them I'm Turkish, they kept verbally bullying me. We don't hold grudges, but they still do over wrong information.
She was lost and looking for her mother and father and that Turkish soldier knew it and felt in his heart he had to do something. So sad but also happy he got to see her again before his death. R.I.P. 🙏

I'm a Korean descendent American currently living in Europe. No matter what or where I may, I'm eternally grateful to Türkiye. Salute!

I am Korean and I honestly think Turkish people are the most unique people out there. They are kind, tough as a nail, and genuine. Thank you Turkey for all this support and the brotherhood should last forever.
Thank you for your kind words. I think the same about Korean people. Some even say that Turkic people and Korean people are related to each otheer. Because we are the Children of the Altaic region
Thank you so much greetings
Thank you❤️❤️ lots of love from Turkey
I'm so happy you think like this about us. We love Korea too! 🤗
Thank you for your heartwarming words
I had a turkish old man that lived next door to me when I was young and he used to tell me we were brothers because I was from Korea. I just thought he was being kind but now I understand...there is a bond between the two countries that the younger generation unfortunately don't remember. Long live the brotherhood 🇰🇷🇹🇷

Long live the Brotherhood 🇰🇷🇹🇷
Im a millenial but when I watched Empress Ki. I discovered that Turkish,Mongols and Koreans are related to eachother. For me they are the same. I see no difference between them.
B3rfinnn_ Easy, during tue Yuan Dynasty era, Mongols,Turks were already related to eachother and also they were both fighting against the Yuan Dynasty.. Goryeo a kingdom in Korea was once conquered by the Yuan..
@B3rfinnn_ Turks, Mongols and Koreans lived in a close geography.
And when Suleyman died, Ayla was there , near him in hospital.She was with her turkish father till his last breath. RIP

@@cesul10 there was documental film about it
It is very moving to watch this document already, but when you know the circumstances the Turkish soldiers were in, it's even more impressive that they were able to build an orphanage and these stories still happened. Turkey was still a poor country at that time and US Secretary of State John Foster Dulles at the time gave a speech to the senate saying Turkish soldiers would cost 23 cents a month, compared to $70 a month per US soldier. Even in such hardship this man and many alike took care of all those children because those kid had suffered the most during that war. A truly commendable story!
Thank you for the information.. but I found the secretary of state quite insulting.. 23 cents a month? Turks dont fight for money, they fight for honour and justice
🇹🇷🇰🇷🫡
We love Korea however our soldiers died for nothing only for US greednes. USA should stop using other countries soldiers and killing innocent people.
Suleyman died in 2017, but his last wish came to reality seeing Ayla before he passes away. This is really though to watch, thanks for everyone who made this happen

Yeah but actually you don’t have to be American soldier definitely because they stolen a kids from Korean War and Vietnam Var
@Khan Will I’m wondering if you understood my comment. What I meant was that this was such a great story about human kindness that everyone, wherever they live and wherever they come from, not only Turkish or Korean people, could appreciate it and learn from it. I am an English-born descendant of European Jewish families, now living in America - and I was deeply moved, to the point of tears, by the love and humanity of both the Turkish soldiers and the Korean girl who became a woman and never forgot.

I'm Korean, and I can tell confidently that many Koreans thank Turkish people for coming first when the Korean War broke out. In fact, my great grandfather was saved by Turkish Army. Althoug he passed away, I still remember him often saying that he cannot forget the Turkey soldier who saved him in the mountains and took care of him.
okay, guys. I can see that there's people saying things abt Filipino soldiers. Of course I acknowledge their help and sacrifice, and of course we thank every single soldiers who took part in the war. However, this was a comment just mentioning what my great grandfather experienced, and does not mean that Turkish army was the only help to us Koreans :)

The moment that he said he spared money to give her as pocket money; which is a Turkish tradition on religious festivals, is really touching. That is the sign they have really deep father - daughter bond
I wonder why he couldn't take her with him or adopt her.
@Sahipkıran Ah I see, I meant why he couldn't take her with him through legal means...the Korean government should have been able to allow him to adopt her. I'm also surprised how he couldn't keep in contact with her after and met her only many years later. But it's good they found each other again even if it took them many years.
@@sunnyv7745 He badly wants her to adopt but unable to find her because her name was change and the records of the orphanage was burned. That's why it takes 60 years for them to reunite by the help of many people.

During war and chaotic situation I don't think Korea government has time to entertain such request for adoption especially from outsiders..and most country would not allowed their orphans to be taken away from their country..

She says he was the only father she had. It was the only time she remembered being loved.
Suleyman left quite an impression on Ayla, so of course, she would remember him well. I thought the part in the movie where he tried to sneak her out of Korea in a box was made up, but Ayla herself said it really did happen lol.
Very true, it's amazing that after all those years, they were like litte ones and like all of a sudden time has stopped and rewound to help bond and effection as if they were never seperated.. All with the help of Allah cc. becouse right at the beginning the intentions of the soldiers we call "niyet" was so pure for taking care of them bcouse islam pays massive importance on the care of orphans, so much so that it is ingraned in attitude in all of muslims. meanwhile thank you for your lovely comment.

You should know that the love and respect for Korea in Turkey is unconditional. Really i can say everyone loves or at least respect Korea, You can not find 1 person out of the 83 million who will hate korea. Maybe you can find people with no opinion, but not one with bad opinion. Korean people are much like us Turkish people, You are respectfull, honorfull, you care about your traditions, culture, you are gratefull and down to earth people. Not cocky at all. You love and respect your elderly, Not many nations has these characteristic, maybe this is also the reason why Turks feel bounded with Korea, maybe it is the blood what unite us, because if we go back in history, the Turkish homeland is the Altaic region, from modern day China up until Caucausus the entire north

RIP Mr. Suleyman. You are greatly missed by a lot of folks in Korea. I just couldn't imagine how one can have such a big heart and a lot of love for a child, who is not his.
Turkish people are maniacs, its their strong feel for love of someone they think they need to protect. Look at turkish Ultras in football, they are crazy, because they love it THAT much. Same story goes for tourists in turkey or anything else. Turkish people mainly act out of heart & instinct.
Turkish people feel strongly responsible of someone who cant defend themselves especially children / animals and protect and feed them generally if they are able to in general, thats why its globally known that turkish people love cats. They love to teach and share anyone about their culture to make them feel comfortable and make it seem like a warm environment even if its war out there, in Aylas Case.
Napoleon once said he only would have needed turks in his army to rule the world, because he knows turks only see do or die, death or glory, lose your soil or protect your homeland whatever it takes. Their bond with allies is a literal thing for them and not only "on paper" they take these bonds seriously and also get emotional because of that.

I knew this story from a Turkish movie called Ayla the daughter of war and I was shocked how much he cared for her this whole time and she's not even his blood. Turkish are really kind people.i hope to visit it one day
The most impressive and emotional real life story I have ever watched and heard in my life. And in a war. I bow respectfully to this brave and compassionate Turkish soldier. It is very impressive that they found each other again and hugged each other with the same love, even though 60 years have passed. It is impossible not to cry while watching all this. Suleyman is a real father with a big heart. In his eyes, Ayla is still his 5-year-old little daughter. And finally, love knows no barriers. Love has no language, color, race or religion. The most important thing in this life is to be human and remain human. I have infinite respect for the brave Turkish soldiers who fought and died for the freedom of Korea without expecting anything in return. With my respect and love to the Turkish and Korean people.

What a touching story. Sadly I just read that Mr Birbiley passed away a few years ago (aged 91), and his wife passed away one day later. I'm glad they were all able to reunite before their time on earth was over.
I was so sure their love was so that one wouldn't outlive the other. I'm really glad they could live so long together.
Id say that it was a good ending, because he lived a long life and had his wish fulfilled a few years before he died.
rip
she couldn’t stand to be apart from him and died immediately a day after؛(
Did Whoa able to attend his funeral?
The way Ayla cried made me cry too. Even though he didn't understand it, speaking to him in Korean impressed me a lot. She asked why he didn't come sooner and it made me cry more. Even though they don't understand each other, it touched my heart to see Ayla and Süleyman Baba like that.
If are you serving in Turkish Armed Forces its mean you are NOT to be reach man. After service when are you retired with honor you have only a few money for living. No more no less...
I actually think he probably speaks a bit of Korean since he was there for so long. So he probably understood everything she said, just may not be able to speak perfectly back. You could tell his wife was confused a bit, but Suley definitely could understand her.

He definitely married to right woman, who loved Ayla as her own daughter. Beautiful documentary. Could it stop the tears from pouring. What a story.
Great story
It's also very sweet that Mr. Suleyman still loved and cared for Ayla after so many years, even after he eventually built his own family.
nur içinde yat süleyman amca tüm şehitlerimiz tüm gazilerimize minnettarız Allah hepsinin mekanını cennet etsin
She really sobs like the little girl she once was in her fathers arms. 1 year and a half spent together and they never ever forgot. Crying this much... This is proof love has no boundaries of time or space. Very heart warming father and daughter never forget. i cried huhuhu
Yes because he was the only parent-figure in her life and where she experienced parental love for 1 1/2 years when she was 4-5 years old..... so sad. There were many orphans and kids separated during the war.
Yeah😭😭😭 she cried like a little baby girl.that miracle love make me cry hard..
This picture Ayla the orphaned girl kissing the soldier should won an Oscar -- a picture that captured the bond and love between 2 different people that lasted 60years .. such a an amazing story ❤
But the traslation is not 100% correkt. 25:29 He said here they've (North-korean/Chinese) killed her father and her mother. The translation said: She lost her parents. 29:34 He said here after his friend was wounded, after that the CHINESE shot in his Head. That wasn't translated right on purpose...
Amen

I've heard about the relationship between Korean and Turkey from my father but didn't really understand it. Watching this documentary made me realize why we appreciate and consider Turkey our brother nation. Thank you so much for all the Turkey veterans who served and helped the Korean people during the war
my granddad is a veteran from korean war. he has so many stories like this. i love koreans. but remember that, i dont want to say that but i say it dont trust to Turks(us) to much. they are not good people as much.

My father Huseyin Yankin, Korean veteran, 90 years old , alive God give him a long life. In my childhood, he always told me about his memories of the war in Korea.
He would say that the children collected bread from the garbage. he never finishes his food, he saves it and takes it to children.
When he shared his food with the children, he would say their happiness is not explained.
If God give him more life, I would like to take him to Korea one day...
"their happiness was indescribable.", thank you.
May God help you to fulfil your dream and give your brave kind father more long life.

Ayla said in her letter that she owes everything to her father. One thing she didn't know is that her father owes her too. She gave him purpose during the war. She gave him the will and courage to survive. That's what I felt too since I became a father. My daughter gave me purpose. This story is beautiful. I wish Ayla and her family well. ❤

My grandfather Ismail Uygur has fought in Kore as a Turkish Sgt.Fc. He told me many times about those orphans who sang the song of Ankara with tears. In 2017 before he passed away, he lost his consciousness in hospital for a while. When he woke up, he did not recognise his own son. His first question to him was, are we in south or north ? When my father answer that in south, he answered Thank God. This is how wars make effect on people's life. Sad but true story...
Allah rahmet eylesin başınız sağolsun 🤍
한국을 지켜주기 위해 흘린 터키군의 피를 기억합니다. 한국인들은 터키국민에 대해서 항상 감사한 마음으로 살고 있습니다.
I am sorry for your loss, after all these years war still breaks out in parts of world.

As an adult man working on the ship, I couldn't hold back my tears. Thanks to those who found and shared this story with us, and to those who brought Ayla and Süleyman together.
My grandfather was stationed in 2nd Infantry Regiment during the Korean war.
He loved to talk about his memories in Korea where he met Turkish troops and fought commies alongside with them.
He admires Turks for their unmatched bravery and toughness. Turkish resistance evantually saved the 8th American battalion troops from chinese siege in Gunu-ri.

unfortunetly america is now arming terrorist in syria against Turkey. But no hard feelings to the people tho. Thanks

Not according to Armenians and Kurds.
@@AndalusianPrince There wasn't an Armenian genocide. Please make some real research before accusing people of doing something they actually didn't. Bruh there are real Ottoman records about Armenians, Armenians formed gangs and hurt Turkish people during WW1. That's why they were relocated, but were unfortunately killed on their way, by diseases. Some misinformed Turks also did attack them, but they only did it because they thought Armenians were there to hurt them. You can also see Ottomans recorded relocated Armenians' properties, to return them to Armenians after the war is over. Even if we forgive Armenians, they continue to accuse us of genocide even in these days because of wrong history knowledge. I remember being on a plane with a couple of Armenians, and after I told them I'm Turkish, they kept verbally bullying me. We don't hold grudges, but they still do over wrong information.

This shows that language is never a barrier. A Turkish soldier and a Korean child managed to love each other.
As a child, Ayla learned Turkish when she was taken care of by the Turkish military.
Language is definitely a barrier, but with enough understanding, patience, and even love it can be overcome.

In Germany, Turkish people are the friendly one,one time we got stuck in parking lot bcoz parking barrier won‘t open while germans behind us are honking their cars and complaining,two turkish men get out from their car and smile and help us move the parking barrier..another incident husband got bicycle accident cars just passing by,again turkish get out from car and help.
They had to. Turks are conscience of the world and soldiers of God..
