Due to the reorganisation of the Republic of Korea Army (ROKA), the quality of training of the ROK 1st Infantry Division was lower than that of other divisions. The 11th Infantry Regiment and the 12th Infantry Regiment just began battalion-sized training; only two battalions from the 13th Infantry Regiment were in the last phase of the training, and one battalion was sent away for the field training.
In addition, 57% of the soldiers were given leave on 24 June. Under the circumstances, the 12th Infantry Regiment had to defend 80 km frontline with only 800 troops. Moreover, heavy firearms and vehicles were sent to the rear for reorganization, and the division commander Paik Sun-yup was absent for training since 14 June.
