Hello, I’m just a 13-year-old Korean boy who does not know and care much about Korean history and economy. However, I know that you are so famous for testing missiles and for shouting out that you are going to stop making nuclear weapons. (but you never did). Many politicians, Korean citizens, and even the current president of South Korea, Moon Jae-in are trying to persuade you not to make nuclear weapons anymore. If you keep making weapons, it will be harder for us, South Korean citizens, to understand you and even harder to become unified as one country.

When the former president of South Korea, Park Geun-Hye ruled South Korea, everything was a chaos. Everyone was afraid of you when you tested missiles because we thought you would launch rockets on us. After Mun Jae-in was selected to be our new leader, we became allies, right? We had an inter-Korean summit in 2018 April 27th. We met after the 2007 inter-Korean summit which was after 11 years! Did it feel good to be the first leader of North Korea to step in South Korea? The first inter-Korean summit was about:

  1. Making Korea an absolute denuclearized country itself,
  2. Having more inter-Korean summits.

This is what you have promised us and the rest of the people in the world. For the second summit that was held in 2018 May 26th, the president of South Korea mentioned that you have to do well on the North Korea — America summit because that was going to be the first time meeting with the president of America after 65 years you met the president of America.

The North Korea — America summit that was held in 2018 June 12th, went pretty well as we all thought. And the summit you participated in was the longest summit between North Korea and America in the history! So, I heard that you promised an absolute denuclearization, peace regime guarantee, and sending back Americans that passed away during the 6.25 war that ended in 1953. Remember when you’d gone to the third inter-Korean summit? We talked about getting old families that had to split up into North and South Korea because of the 6.25 Korean war. Right? I saw a Korean movie about families getting split into groups on TV. It was about reunioning people and families, and it seemed very demanding work.

There are some problems that I see throughout

If you have read my reminders, opinions, facts, and more issues about you, what do you think about it? And I would also want you to try and figure out your problems thinking in different kinds of ways. If you keep going on without your mistakes, you might even get a Nobel peace prize! I am your true fan and even though I don’t and can’t help you much in economics and politics, I will try to help you by sending you positive messages and letters to cheer you up.

Thanks for reading.
