South Korea did not initiate an invasion of North Korea. The Korean War was initially started by the invasion of an ill-prepared South Korea by the (North) Korean People's Army on June 25th, 1950. This was because North Korean leader Kim Il Sung wanted to unite the two factions of Korea that had been developed under the division of responsibility for postwar occupation forces between the US and Soviet Union.

It is true that after UN intervention saved the South Koreans from a full-out defeat, UN-led forces entered North Korea and reached as far north as the border with China in some locations prior to the Chinese intervention. This part of the war could be classified as a counter-invasion.

No, Vetnam is also communist. And North Korea is not communist country. They dont follow any of communist country. Economy, systems are not connected with communism. The leader is like god in north korea. And the leader is doing horrible things. They say they are communist country but absoluty not. China, economy is demoncracy but only the governmental system is communist.

The Pop scene in Korea is really famous

In fact, it is well known all over the world.

They also have hiphop groups, rap groups and bands like

When Japan was defeated by the USA and the USSR (who had very recently recently decided to declare war on Japan after the fall of the Nazis and at the request of President Truman), Korea, a territory of Japan since 1910, was split in half much like Nazi Germany was divided between the victorious Allies. The Northern half of Korea belonged to the USSR, and the Southern Half to the USA-- this is also the root of North Korean Communism, the reason why the Korean War erupted (when Comunist North Korea tried to take over South Korea), and why there are two Koreas today.

of course they are same people. It is like when the germany was divided into 2. Smae languages and same culture

None. It never managed to gain control of South Korea.

Because their homosexual pornography business doesn't get enough cash becausetheir genitals are significantly miniscule and when the penis goes into the anus their orgasms sound like tellitubbies on crack.

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

The name of the dynasty was the Joseon Dynasty

At the end of WW2 Rusian troop flooded parts of China, as it was still occupied by Japanese troops.

Russia also occupied North Korea, and put in a puppet communist government.

Hideyoshi invaded Korea with designs of eventually conquering China. From the Korean's perspective, they didn't really care why they were being invaded. They just wanted to succesfully repel the invaders.

Korea was part of China until 1895. Traditionally, Korea thought China as a parent or big brother country, and China treated Korea as a son country. After 1945, It still continue between North Korea and China. For South Korea, China is two of main countries influencing South Korean politics with U.S.

The three kingdoms in Korea were named Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla.

South Korea has an export economy.

The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (sometimes abbreviated to DPRK) is an Asian democracy (although, in reality it is a dictatorship). The name of the country in Korean is 조선민주주의인민공화국 ­ and usually informally referred as North Korea. It is located North of the Republic of Korea (abbreviated as ROK, informally referred to as south Korea), South of Manchuria, West of the Japanese Islands and borders the Yellow Sea and the East Sea/Sea of Korea/Sea of Japan.

Korea was divided by the 38th parallel in the year 1945.

Japan had controlled Korea from 1910 - 1945. Before that, Korean was part of China.

In the sense that it is ruled by one person or group of people who do not answer to the population and recognise no limits to their authority.

The Korean people can vote for their rulers but as no opposition is allowed to the ruling party they have no other choice.

Well i researched it a few seconds ago and the ruler of South Korea that is in Seoul is a minister named Lee Myung-bak. (See me in my most recent online gaming).
