A derogatory term for East Asians (Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese, etc.)
South Koreans, the
people the US fought alongside in the war, call themselves Hanguk Hahn-Gook which translates to South Korean. The
Americans shortened it to just Gook and it became a derogatory term for anyone that looks like that kind of
Asian
