Yes, North Korea is still currently at, you could call it war. As iin 1950-1953 neither country availed from the Korean War that did nnothing but separate relations between the two countries even further this caused outrage to the Soviet Union and the United States as neither was able to accomplish their goal of communism or democracy. Therefore in the 38th parallel both countries are still deploying troops and soldiers in the case of a surprise attack from either country. In this sense the two koerans are still at war from the cold war era between 1945-1991, North Korean Communists and the Republic of South Korea signed an armistice in 1953 to signal the stop of fighting as civillian casualties outnumbered those lost in war which in a sense caused the koraen War to stop.

Why is south Korea rich and north Korea is not?
Why North Korea has not developed an economy comparable to South Korea is a complex issue. One reason is that North Korea has faced repeated sanctions from the UN. North Korea and South Korea had comparable economies until the mid-1970s. South Korea chose to embrace a Westernized Capitalist economy and was able to modernize alongside Japan and Taiwan in developing a first-world modern economy. Conversely, North Korea continued to become more autarkic and slide into increasing forms of state-planned economy. Without innovation and a strong private sector, North Korea's economy continues to shrivel whereas South Korea's economy continues to grow and develop.
