Their ideals are at directs odds with each other. South Korea has a heavy Western influence and is a very highly developed and modern country with a good appreciation for human rights. In addition, they are a very capitalistic society with a democratic government. North Korea, however, is a communist and authoritarian government with a very low regard for human rights. They are very under-developed and have lost all backing from nearby countries, including China. North Korea desires to reunify the Korean peninsula and Kim Jong Il is not a completely sane and stable ruler.

As this is an opinion question, you may get conflicting views.

Answer 1

No. I assume that this question is coming from an analysis of the China-HongKong relationship where China operates two systems of government simultaneously. This would not be viable in Korea since the South Koreans would never support joining the poverty and autocracy of North Korea and conversely, North Korea would not accept anything less than total domination of the Korean peninsula. In order for the two Koreas to reunite, a situation similar to the two Germanies where one imploded economically and was absorbed by the other, is the only way.

Why would the North Korean leader not let South Korean people work in North Korea?

North Korea has recently declared that it is at war with South Korea. This is not really because of anything South Korea has done, but rather it is an attempt to pressure the international community which has recently enacted economic sanctions against North Korea, in an effort to discourage North Korea from pursuing its nuclear weapons program. North Korea cannot pretend to be at war with South Korea and still conduct business as usual with them. That would not make sense, and would show that the declaration of war is meaningless. Whether North Korea will take the next step, of actually invading South Korea, remains to be seen. If they do, then they will have a real war on their hands.

Do North Korean defectors have a choice about staying or leaving South Korea?

Most North Korean Defectors do not ever go to South Korea. They either stay in China or come to the United States. North Koreans often feel alienated or discriminated against in South Korea because of their accent or mannerism, so they prefer to live in other places where their distinctiveness as North Koreans is less obvious.For those North Koreans who do defect, regardless of what country they defect to, returning to North Korea will be punished by death. South Korea also makes going to North Korea a criminal offense, meaning that, if for some reason North Korea waives punishment for returning, a re-return to South Korea will land that person in Jail. However, North Korean defectors to South Korea become immediate South Korean citizens and can visit any country with which South Korea has relations (just like any native-born South Korean). For example, they could work in Europe, the US, Canada, etc. provided that they get the proper visas required by those countries.
