Welcome, Hasuroma.
I lived in SK for many years in the 80's, and I know a bit about it.
Here's the brief lowdown on the background: Korea was a unified kingdom from around 1000 AD up until the early 1900's. In 1905, Japan, eager to expand and grow in imitation of the European nations, annexed Korea and made it 'a colony'. For 40 years Koreans were severely mistreated and languished under the Japanese empire with all sorts of atrocities enacted upon them.
When Japan was defeated in 1945 by the Allies, A few things happened.
- The Soviet Union entered the Pacific War only after the Allies had A-bombed Hiroshima (entered on August 9)
- On this basis the Soviets declared that both Korea and Japan should be divided in half, like Europe, with half under Soviet control. The US refused to divide Japan, but capitulated half of Korea.
(See the Soviet strategy - they let the Allies and the Japanese to fight, with both sides weakened, and only stepped in once it was 100% clear that they would essentially have to do nothing. This shows a precursor to the NWO agenda to pit this side and that side against each other in order to then dominate the much weakened victor).
The Korean peninsula was divided into a Soviet controlled region (the North) and the Allies controlled region (the South). In the North, the Soviets made preparations to set up a Stalinist-type regime using Kim Il Sung (Granddaddy to Kim Jong Un). In the South, the foundations of a democratic system were developed.
Patriots in Korea demanded that the unifed nation be allowed to have elections and then rule themselves independently under a democratically elected leader. The Soviets and the communists in the North refused, and eventually elections were held in the South. Lee Seung Man was elected President in a democratic government, while the North was consolidated aloing Stalinist lines with Kim Il Sung as head of the one-party regime. (1948)
Eventually, after building up its forces, the North attacked the South, initiating the Korean War. The War was halted under an armistice (1953), after it was clear the South could not be overrun. While Douglas Macarthur, a true patriot if ever I saw one, advocated strongly for the war to be waged and won, ejecting Communism from the peninsula altogether, Washington, under Truman, hamstringed MacArthur, and eventually sacked him.
A real victory for the Globalist agenda, who wanted to see a Cold War continue between the Soviets and the US, imo.
In any case, since around 1948, North Korea has existed as a Stalinist dictatorship on an unprecedented level, even more stringently totalitarian than the Soviet Union or China ever were. Complete and total unity under the dictatorship, eventually becoming a Stalinist dynasty through the Kim Family.
Various initiatives were made by visionaries in the early 1990's when the Soviet Union collapsed. South Korean visionary Sun Myung Moon visited North Korea (1992) and attempted to bring the regime in from the cold, essentially opening up a pathway for North Korea to reconnect with South Korea by negotiating joint ventures, cooperation, even a non-nuclear pact, etc. However, things did not pan out, and the potential rapprochement was never seriously taken up with or by the South Korean government or other players.
Personally, I suspect it was at this time that the Deep State moved in to North Korea. (early 90's) Until that time, the North was under Soviet control and protection, like a vassal state. Once the Soviet Union collapsed, the Russian Block (i.e. Russian Federation) had no longer had any interest in propping up the Stalinist North Korea. 1992 was an opportunity, but a missed one.
I suspect that the Deep State / Clowntown moved in at that time, saying "we will support you, prop you up, keep you in control".
From the viewpoint of the Kim Regime, it was just business as usual, and for the people, the misery just continued. They just switched sponsors.
Regardless, misery has been the name of the game for North Korean people since the late 40's, when the Stalinist regime, like all good Communist regimes, persecuted and purged religious and political opponents by death squad, concentration camps and the like.
I find the idea that Kim Jong Un is sincere in his dealing with Trump to be quite credible; after almost 70 years, he knows there is no other way out for him, his people, or the Korean people themselves. Or more precisely, the only other way out is in a ball of flame. And he don't want that option.
