The show was based on the Korean War, but the war lasted from 1950-1953, the TV show went from 1970-1981

MASH was a movie based on a book about Korea.  It was made in the Viet Nam war era into a movie - and while it was based in KOREA, the director was actually doing a Viet Nam movie, and removed all references to KOREA.  The final cut had the editor put in a reference to Korea right at the beginning of the movie.  

The show, was based on the movie, and was not made during the Korean Conflict.
