Abstract

The division of the Korean peninsula into North and South, a legacy of the Cold War, was turned into a hot war in 1950. Because of its bitter experiences in this war, South Korea has remained one of those countries where anticommunist sentiment runs very high despite the changes that have taken place in the world since 1950. Even when the era of Cold War yield to that of detente in the 1970s, the Cold War in Korea continued between the two competing states.
