Toward the end of WW2 Russian military forces attacked the Japanese held areas of China and Northern Korea. US forces occupied South Korea.
Because there was a war between North and South Korea
The division of North and South Korea was the 38th Parallel before the war, during the war, and after the war.
World War 2. After Japan surrendered, North Korea was liberated by the USSR, and South Korea by the US. A few years later the Korean War was fought, and the previous division at the 38th Parallel was reaffirmed.
The division of Korea was the result of the 1945 Allied victory in World War II ending the Empire of Japan's 35 years colonial rule of Korea by General Order No.1.

No. One side is Communist and the other is Democracy,(I think, from what i read about while in school)they do not agree on each other. South Korea and N.Korea hate each other
First off, there was no South Korea during world war 1. Korea as a whole was neutral and was not involved in world war 1.
the UN passes a resolution stating that free elections should be held, foreign troops should be withdrawn, and a UN commission for Korea should be created.
Korea did not fight in world war 2. So the answer is no.
WWI did not expand to far east asia. Korea did exist during the period under Japanese control. It was before the division, and one of the countries which Japan had invaded, which was one of the reasons for the Pacific War.
After world War II, that finished on 1945 , in 1948 Korea was spilt into two separate nations, North Korea and South Korea
Cold War rivalries between the Soviets and the Americans.
