Best Answer

After World War II and the Japanese defeat, the Japanese occupation left Korea. USA and the USSR split up Korea to be managed by the two super powers, the USSR in the north and USA in the south, to be later unified in a single election. However, as relations between the two grew worse with the progression of the Cold War, the 38th parallel division became more and more permanent. Eventually, Communist and Moscow-trained Kim Il-Sung became leader for the Democratic's People of Republic of Korea and the USSR troops departed.
