5. Sunshine policy...
the idea is that if they trade with NKorea, it will imporve relations, economic dependance, etc. etc. Only thing is, North Korea isn't exactly a rational actor given who leads them. Most of the younger South Koreans who were not alive during the Korean War have been pushing for this kind of policy. They blame the US for most of their problems and see North Koreans as their brothers. Older South Koreans who fought in the wars especially have a loyalty towards the US and a distrust for the North Korean government.
