Korea was liberated by the Soviet Union when it entered the war against japan in the late years of World War 2 but the western powers of the USA and the United Kingdom were nervous of letting communism consuming Asia because the west did not want the same tensions as in the separation of war torn Germany between the four waring powers (U.S.S.R, U.S.A, Britain and France). So the west demanded that Stalin allow western soldiers to occupy the sourthern part of Korea thus putting a huge block in the way of the expansion of communism in Asia. So Korea was never really liberated because the North became part of the tyranny of the soviet block and the south has always been fearful of the North just like today.
