defection on the rise from north korea

the reason for the separation between the north and south korea was dated back then during japan occupation of korean peninsula.when in 1930 japan rules korean but in 1945 japan suffered heaviest defeat due to 2 atomic bombs dropped by the US and the joint attack by coalition forces such as soviet union.as japan left the korean peninsula then america and soviet union decided to divide the korean peninsula by two parts.the north korea get to governed by the soviet union and the south get to governed by the american.hence there's exist a communist state and a democratic state.overtime soviet union dominance diminished and the north find themselves unable to move forward with their economy and lagged behind, this is different situation with those in south korea that has its prosperity skyrocketing with the help of the US.the thing is that north korea is a reclusive regime that try to silence its people against any rebellion of its state and thus many people suffered there.
