What would happen if the Koreas United?

What would happen if the Koreas United?

Loads of malnourished, socially awkward people from the north suddently thrust into the world of Gangnan Style

No more Best Korea memes

Assuming it was done peacefully (lol yeah right) they would have 70,000,000 people with one half providing shitloads of natural resources and the other technical and executive experience. I wouldn't even be surprised if Korea overtook Japan after a decade or two.

fucking kek

Basically this

Sounds like South Korea after WWII.. No? SK/DE/JP all proved that you can rebuild a nation in a generation.

It would be an absolute disaster. North Koreans are too culturally different than South Koreans.

The two sides have completely opposite and different ways of thinking about everything.

Plus the north would always be a third world shithole. Just look at eastern Germany. its a shithole but it was never on the scale of backwardness that North Korea is.

They won't let it happen. They can't have the desperate, soulless, poor thralls of the government finding out just how good it is in the north.

> China becomes allies with USA maybe
> Russia allies with USA maybe.
> Trio of the most powerful countries in the world makes the European Union shit their pants.

Japan is still 40 million ahead of them in population, with tons of land for farming and extracting resources from. Korea won't overtake Japan for at least another 40-50 years.

It would take South Korea probably 2 generations at least to repair the damage to the North Korean people, that would be two generations of dramatically slower economic growth.

Also, American influence right at China's border kek

And it costed a fortune to propel East Germany forward (it worked well but it was indeed less of a challenge than North Korea would be)

The south and the north had a war and economic disparity much.
They are the differences with the unification of Germany.
I think they need preparatory period 10-20 years before their unification.

Will never happen. Not in our lifetimes anyway. People in the South would never sacrifice their lifestyle for it.

End of Hillary's career in politics.

well, DPRK is totally fucking ruined forever in terms of resources from toxic waste and nuclear dumping, they offer nothing, their population is almost entirely uneducated, malnourished and obviously trapped in the fucking 60s. It just wouldn't work. Nork is like a time stasis bubble.

I wrote a paper on this. North and South disparity is Germany ×40. Millions would flock to the South. Once the dust settles though, in say 40 years, this Korea would have an economy larger than Japan.

What if Kim nukes your military & just invades ?

The north Korean regime has to lose power first and they have to endure 10-20 years of unsteady democracy and rapid economic growth before unification can happen.

Milliions of white cock-deprived Asian women unleashed into the free world, what do you think would happen?

Even peaceful unification right now would destroy the South's economy, and much else besides.

I didn't know this until recently but apparently they have huge income inequality in south korea and Gangnan Style is a song about the very few very rich play boys in South Korea while everyone else is poor as fuck.
