The draft was unpopular in the South primarily because it disproportionately affected poorer individuals who could not afford to pay for substitutes, leading to resentment among the lower classes. Many Southern families, who relied on agriculture and had limited resources, felt that the draft unfairly targeted them while wealthier individuals could evade service. Additionally, the South's strong sense of local identity and resistance to centralized authority fueled opposition to the draft, as many viewed it as an infringement on their rights and autonomy.

This is very unlikely. Aside from the fact that a second Korean War is becoming less and less likely due to North Korea's economic failures and China's withdrawal of support, the idea of a military draft in the United States is so unpopular that it would never pass. Finally, the US troop numbers and positions in South Korea are sufficient to halt any North Korean attack without needing a draft because of the superiority of the US and South Korean military arms.
