From what I heard, it was not that rosy. But US needed a base for the Korean war. That gave Japan some leverage.

War occupations are never rosy, I didn't mean to paint it that way. But you could certainly make the argument it was rosy compared to the Japanese occupation of China.

My first reaction is that the implication the Korean war was somehow being planned by the US at the time of the Japanese surrender is some crazy revisionist propaganda.

But can you elaborate on what you are trying to say and what supports it?

Is it that hard to provide a proper link or reference and a hint why I should bother?
