Why North Korea has not developed an economy comparable to South Korea is a complex issue. One reason is that North Korea has faced repeated sanctions from the UN. North Korea and South Korea had comparable economies until the mid-1970s. South Korea chose to embrace a Westernized Capitalist economy and was able to modernize alongside Japan and Taiwan in developing a first-world modern economy. Conversely, North Korea continued to become more autarkic and slide into increasing forms of state-planned economy. Without innovation and a strong private sector, North Korea's economy continues to shrivel whereas South Korea's economy continues to grow and develop.
During World War II, Korea was under Japanese colonial rule, and thus North Korea, as part of the Korean Peninsula, was involved in the conflict primarily as a battleground for Japanese forces. The Korean people faced harsh oppression and exploitation during this period. Following Japan's defeat in 1945, Korea was divided into two occupation zones, leading to the eventual establishment of North and South Korea. North Korea emerged as a Soviet-aligned state, which set the stage for future conflicts during the Cold War.
Charles Jenkins was an American soldier who became known for his defection to North Korea during the Korean War. In 1965, he crossed the heavily fortified Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) and sought asylum in North Korea, where he lived for decades. Jenkins was held in North Korea under harsh conditions and was eventually allowed to leave in 2004, returning to the United States with his North Korean wife and their children. He later spoke about his experiences and the challenges he faced during his time in North Korea.
