Are there any wars in South Korea?

It depends on what you consider to be the "founding of Korea".
If you are asking about the first sovereign states on the Korean peninsula, you are likely talking about the founding of the Kingdom of Gojoseon. Dangun Wanggeom, a mythical figure, is said to have founded Gojoseon in the 2300s B.C.E. We know for certain that the bronze-age civilization existed by the 7th century B.C.E. because we have confirmation of it in Chinese writings from those times.
If you are referring to the first sovereign state to control the entire Korean peninsula, this would be the Kingdom of Goryeo, which was founded in 918 C.E. and controlled the entire peninsula in 936 C.E. (In fact, the western term "Korea" derives from the mispronunciation of Goryeo by Western emissaries. Koreans call their homeland "Hanguk" or "Joseon".)
If you are referring to the two current sovereign Korean states of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK or North Korea) and the Republic of Korea (ROK or South Korea), these states were founded and declared independent in 1948 C.E. after three years of Soviet and US occupation respectively and a previous 35-year Japanese colonization.

No. Both countries would LOVE to reunify. They have wanted to reunify for decades, but the North Koreans want Korea to be a communist country and the South Koreans, who live in a thriving capitalist...well, as close to a democracy as you're going to get in a country that has elected such pieces of work as Syngman Rhee, Chun Doo Hwan and Roe Tae Woo*, don't want to be communists. * Chun Doo Hwan was president of South Korea from 1981 to 1988. Roh Tae Woo was president from 1988 to 1993. Kim Young Sam became president in 1993, and his first act was to have Chun Doo Hwan and Roh Tae Woo thrown in jail.

In korea do unni get treated better than dongsaeng?
kinda yes, actually dongsaengs respect their unni because they are older, so they get treated as that .
you use formal speak with them, you can't disrespect them , you cant raise your voice at them (if you was the dongsaeng)
take me for example my unni can hit me, say pabo to me ,use informal speak with me but i still respect her .....
and if they do it its dosen`t mean that the unnis are bullying ... it means that the dongsaengs respect them and they are polite
so i guess yeah unnis does get treated better than dongsaeng
but unnis dose care about there dongsaengs treated them like there real little sisters and mostly unnis buy them food and other stuff sometime

In Korea is 10000 a lot of money?
In South Korea, 10,000 won (approximately 8-9 USD) is not considered a large amount of money. It can cover small expenses, such as a meal at a casual restaurant or a few items at a grocery store. However, for more significant purchases or services, it is generally seen as a modest amount. The perception of its value can also vary depending on individual financial circumstances.
