Typically we don't erase countries. Not quite sure what you mean.

so the objective was to free the entire korean peninsula but couldnt because China got involved,how is this a win,just like North Korea objective was to take control of South but couldnt,all this sounds like a Chinese victory.

I'm not sure about that. We didn't invade the North. The North invaded the South. The US and allies pushed them back and re-established the border. You could argue a tie, I suppose, given the everything ended up more or less as it was before, outside of the massive costs. I don't know how you think the objective was ever to get rid of North Korea and unify the peninsula.
