i object to this because the phrasing “invasion” still makes it out like the DPRK are the bad guys
it was a civil war, the lead up to the civil war seeing the South have a police dictatorship supported by the U.S. which did literally every awful thing the u.s. has accused the DPRK of doing, including killing people for the wrong fucking haircut
notice how literally no american ever talks about the U.S. civil war with “the North invaded the South”
and they’re the good guys because they “ended slavery”*

Eeeh, plenty of American civil war revisionists go for that argument actually, it was even a major theme of the ken burns documentary
