It can only be said that Japan has caused too much suffering to the Korean nation on the peninsula in the past millennium, and its hatred is as deep as the sea. There is no need to elaborate on the old story of the "Renchen Japanese rebellion" from 1592 to 1599. Anyway, Lee's North Korea directly cut its mouth in half. From 1872 to 1909, Japan invaded Korea under the ideological trend of the Korean expedition theory, and finally signed the Japan ROK merger treaty in 1910, which was the darkest page in their history. That period was called "the period of Japanese occupation" by the Koreans. By the time of the restoration in 1945, a total of 3 million people had been forcibly recruited as laborers and taken to join the army and comfort women. Millions of people are still in exile under the oppression of Japan, which is equivalent to the direct reduction of 1 / 3 of the population of the whole peninsula. According to the statistics of the government of the Republic of Korea after the restoration, one in five people died directly as a result of the Japanese military and police during the occupation.
Korea hates Japan because of a treaty that was established pre-World War One, a treaty stating that neither country shall invade the nation of China, which was then broken after Japan invaded Manchuria, a city in northern China, breaking the pact with Korea, and causing a huge disturbance. Also, the politicians might not get along well, since Japan is a free nation now, and Northern Korea is still a communist country, although some Koreans from both North and South still might view Japan as a traitor nation.
Its felt that the resentment between Japanese people and Korean people is long standing and goes back centuries to the days of piracy. It's also felt to become from the time Japan ruled Korea in 1910-1945.
As nations, Japan and South Korea enjoy friendly relations. There are certainly some people in those countries who have an unfortunate racist attitude. North Korea, of course, is another matter, due to its psychotic dictatorial government.
Maybe because Japan invaded and occupied Korea. Then tried to invade China.
The neighboring countries of North Korea are South Korea, China, Russia, Japan, and Mongolia.
