I think the 38th Parallel was decided in 1945, but it did not become enforced immediately so that Koreans who wished to relocate could do so.
In the closing days of World War 2, the Soviet Union drove the Japanese out of northern Korea and the USA landed in southern Korea. They agreed the border of the two occupied zones should be roughly the 38th parallel.
The two countries are still based on this division.
