For many reasons the North invaded the southern part of Korea, first being that the North wanted to unify the whole peninsula under communism.
At the end of WWII (it being held by Japan during the war) it was split by the Allied forces. The north held by the Soviets troops and the south by the United States troops. This made it a "hot spot" in the Cold War, and both sides wanted a chance to fight the other so Korea was a likely place for it to happen.

To restore South Korea after it had been invaded by North Korea. The US invaded Korea twice. The first time was in 1945 when the US and the USSR agreed to invade the Korean Peninsula to defeat the ruling Japanese. The USSR invaded from the north and, as agreed, stopped at the 38th parallel. The US invaded from the south and stopped at the same line. The second time, in 1950, the US only invaded North Korea. The Republic of Korea (South Korea) requested US assistance, so when the US entered South Korea it was by invitation, not invasion. The invasion of North Korea was part of the objective of eliminating the North Korean ability to effectively re-invade South Korea.
