It comes as the hermit state announced it will carry out a sixth nuclear test - despite the rest of the world warning against it. Post-war economic development was premised on a narrative of collective hard work and national unity and the belief that all Koreans would be the beneficiaries of rapid growth.
(Korean - ) "North Korea has to show honest intent towards talks, and intent towards denuclearization".
He has also talked about pulling out of the Korea-U.S.
The victor of Tuesday's election and South Korea's next president, Moon Jae-in, favours a much softer policy towards North Korea.
For example, it had been the position of his Democratic Minjoo Party, and of Moon himself, for the past year to oppose the THAAD deployment. The goal was to create commercial, financial and personal ties between the two Koreas, and to that end South Korea sent aid and investment to the North.
"I will do everything I can to maintain peace on the Korean peninsula".

Moon's phone conversation with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe started at 2:25 p.m. and lasted 25 minutes, said Yoon. He is reportedly against the aggressive military measures Trump has threatened to deploy if North Korea does not back down from vigorously expanding its nuclear regime.
A statement Thursday from the mission said a "Korean-style anti-terrorist offensive will be commenced to mop up the intelligence and plot-breeding organizations of the US and South Korea". The so-called "chief policy director" will advise the president on domestic policy. But some recent U.S. actions point to a deliberate attempt to get the confrontation going before Moon took office.
"President Moon said the Thaad issue can be resolved when there is no further provocation by North Korea", spokesman Yoon Young-chan said.
Two sources with knowledge of the situation said the US embassy in Beijing had submitted a diplomatic note to China's foreign ministry, saying that inviting North Korea sent the wrong message at a time when the world was trying to pressure Pyongyang over its repeated missile and nuclear tests.
Now that he is the "next president", he may very well decide to keep the system, given that it has already been deployed and it could damage relations with Korea's closest ally, the US, to change course. Then suddenly it arrived in the country in March, and was "operational" (at least in theory) by last month.
Left-leaning former human rights lawyer Moon Jae-in won South Korea's presidential election by a landslide on Tuesday, sweeping to power on a yearning for change after a tumultuous scandal. Moon responded that he's aware of China's concerns and asked Xi to help resolve the difficulties facing South Korean businesses in China, it said. The two leaders also agreed to strengthen their alliance, the White House said.
