In 1952, Kang became the commander of the ROK 1st Division and he achieved the rank of major general during the Korean War. Was picked by President Rhee, Seungman to attend the U.S. War College in Ft. Leavenworth, Kansas during the Korean War with General Chung, Il Kwon. He was in charge of reforming the III Corps in 1953. Kang was then trained under the US Army X Corps. When the US X Corps pulled out, Kang and his men were in charge of defending key areas in the war. They were responsible for defending the area from the Punchbowl to the Pukhan River. General Kang then formed the Second Republic of Korean Army and became its first Commanding Officer.
Even though Kang played a large role in the Republic of Korean Army's general staff as their chief of operations, there was suspicion relating to his involvement in Kim Chang-Yong's assassination and other NDC corruption charges. Kang was put on trial Taegu where he was found guilty and sentenced to death. However, this sentence was changed due to his success and influence in the Korean War. He was later liberated from prison after the April Revolution. Kang never confessed to participating in the assassination of Kim Chang-Yong, regardless of the court's decision
