In February 1954, during her honeymoon with Joe DiMaggio, Marilyn Monroe traveled to Korea to entertain American troops stationed after the Korean War armistice. Performing 10 shows in four days before over 100,000 soldiers, she sang hits like “Diamonds Are a Girl’s Best Friend” in freezing weather. Monroe later said the experience was one of the most rewarding of her life, deepening her bond with the troops and solidifying her status as America’s beloved icon. #fblifestyle | Founding Lens
