Paju Walk is named after the City of Paju in the Republic of Korea. The Gloucestershire Regiment (The Glosters) played a heroic role in the defence of South Korea during the Korean War (1950-53), holding out against the Chinese Army at the Battle of Imjin River (1951), despite being heavily outnumbered. The people of South Korea remain grateful to The Glosters for protecting their freedom. Hill 235, where the 1st Battalion, the Gloucestershire Regiment was ordered to 'Hold on where you are', is remembered as 'Gloster Hill'. A stunning memorial to all the Glosters who fought in the conflict was unveiled in 2014, at the same time that Gloucester City Council and the City of Paju signed an agreement to co-operate on economic and cultural issues. Paju Walk is named in recognition of these ongoing links and the warm bond of friendship between the two cities.
