The future

The Korean DMZ has been going for almost 50 years, and it might continue on for a little longer. Unless North and South Korea can come up with a true negotiation and not a cease-fire, then the Korean DMZ might disappear and there might be a better future. However, if North and South Korea don't come up with a better plan and continue sending soldiers to the other side, then there is a great chance that the Korean DMZ would stay. The bigger problem would be the fact that if the fighting continues, then another war might break out due to unstableness of the two countries, which would then result in many more people dying and other countries needing to get involved to help the country they are supporting, which could finally break out to another World War. Preparing for another war, if there is to be one, both countries are improving their military and defenses so that they can overcome the opponent. However, the best thing for the two countries to do is to try to come up with a true peace treaty, forget their history, and act as a single Korea and try to come up with a better future.
