On June 25, 1950 at 11:00 a.m. Kim Il Sung, Premier of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, declared war on South Korea. This declaration of war came 7 hours after North Korean forces began the invasion of South Korea. The US had, for the most part, left Korea after assisting in the establishment of a democratic government south of the 38th parallel. There were no major US units in Korea at the time the invasion began.
