WW1 , WW2 and the Korean conflict .
British units were organized into Brigades. If you can identify the Brigades that was there, then you can find out the regiments that were in that brigade. Each British Reigment had several battalions and they usually served in different areas. (This derived from WW1 when regiments were raised from one local area of Britain and when the regiment suffered in combat the local community was devastated.) Therefore, one specific Regiment might be found in many Brigades. For US regiments, you identify the Infantry Division and that will tell you what regiments were there.
While the Soviet Union was not directly involved in the Korean War, it did provide supplies and other aid to the North Koreans. Some soviet citizens even served as volunteers in the North Korean military.

In the organization of the British army over the years, they formed Regiments. Some regiments were selected to guard the King/Queen and were called Guards. Units formed from local militia were Yeomanry units. The equivalent in the US is National Guard units.
If you want a list of all members of all Scottish Regiments, that would be difficult to provide. A lesson the British learned from WW2 was if you an entire Regiment served in one campaign or battle, then if that regiment suffered high loss of life that it would have a detrimental impact on the region or town from where the regiment was organized. Therefore, British Regiments(including those designated as Scottish Regiments) were divided into Battalions and each battalion would serve in a different part of the war. Thus the battalion designated 1 Royal Scots would be sent to one campaign and the 2 Royal Scotts were sent to another. This kind of info might be available.
