The Emerging Relationship between North Korea and South Korea: Concerns about Potential Human Rights Violations

Abstract

In April 27, 2018, President Moon of South Korea met with the North Korea leader, Jong-un Kim, for the first time in a demilitarized zone in South Korea territory. Many experts are optimistic on the newly-formed relationship between South Korea and North Korea. They are predicting a more united future. This study explores the human rights violations that may occur within that potential union by critically comparing the two countries’ cultural and political systems.
