Is the dream of Korean reunification dead? – NKNews Podcast Ep. 162

Is Korean reunification still a realistic or even a worthwhile goal? We explore both sides of the argument with NK News Director Andrei Lankov and Wang Son-taek, a research associate at Yeosijae (Future Consensus Institute). The two discuss why North and South Korea will or will not ever reconcile, DPRK denuclearization and what kind of inter-Korean engagement is appropriate. Andrei Lankov recently wrote a piece for NK News arguing that the two Koreas will never reconcile, which you can read here. Wang Son-taek responded with an NK News piece of his own, which you can find here. About the podcast: The North Korea News Podcast is a weekly podcast hosted exclusively by NK News, covering all things DPRK — from news to extended interviews with leading experts and analysts in the field, along with insight from our very own journalists.
