“…Given the vested political interests of the foreign powers in both North and South Korea (Paik, 2014), the continued division of the nation seemed imminent as peaceful agreement between the communist North and democratic South could not be reached. To the North Korean regime, unification by military conquest then became an unwanted, but necessary, means of reconciliation (Drennan, 2003).…”

“…Viewing the Korean War as a civil war among Koreans, as does Drennan (2003), ignores the fact that foreign governments provided the arms, finance, military personnel, and strategic support for the war's continuance. Depending on the party writing history, the positioning of the victim-aggressor relationship promulgated between South and North Korea ultimately determines the manner in which foreign involvement is viewed.…”

This essay has been written to critically explore the societal idealization of oneness held among the Korean people. Particular emphasis is paid to scholarly works published between the years 2010 and 2016. The central finding procured by reviewing works meeting this study's inclusion criteria suggests that the notion of ethnocultural oneness is a modern myth structured along the political ideologies of the state. As such, attention is duly afforded to the historic origins of oneness and how this perception emerged in the twentieth century as a response to the period of Japanese colonization , the Korean War (1950)(1951)(1952)(1953), and the years in which Korea experienced rapid industrial development. It is assumed that the knowledge generated from this study may be used to (a) extend critical discourse on Korea's cultural history, (b) provide an alternative view on the formation of Korea's national identity, and (c) illuminate taken for granted perceptions that have been propagated among the people of Korea in the twentieth century as means to promote a sense of togetherness.

“…A final consideration with the South is the reputation damage that the South Korean cyber warfare command suffered from the alleged engagement in psychological warfare capabilities on its own population, which may also lead to a reduced public support for the organization. Critics have noted that a major weakness of South Korea is its politicized military [19]. It was accused that the South Korean military tried to influence voters during the 2012 presidential elections [5].…”

In this paper, we argue that the two Koreas' intentions and actions on the cyber front point toward the possibility that they have engaged in cyber warfare against each other. From South Korea's standpoint, a key concern has been North Korea's advanced cyber warfare capabilities and alleged involvement of its substantial workforce in the Internet's dark side activities. These issues need to be looked at the backdrop of the North's nuclear and ballistic missile capabilities. This paper draws principally upon theories and concepts from military strategy and warfare to examine the contexts, mechanisms, and processes associated with the cyber warfare in the Korean peninsula. We also compare the two Koreas in terms of various forms of asymmetries in cyber warfare and cyber attacks. Also highlighted in the paper are South Korea's recent initiatives and actions to enhance cyber-offense and cyber-defense capabilities.
