I sure do now that you remind me of the date!  I was a 2d LT in Seoul, Soth Korea on a 3 day pass from supporting/guarding the Korean DMZ, and watched it on an outside tv, along with many others, mostly Korean Nationals.  Remember being quite proud to be an American soldier at the time of the broadcast - the Koreans in my immediate area were awestruck as well - which was unusual given the general disposition of urban Koreans toward the occupying GIs at the time (but that's a whole different story).
