Cultural, educational, travel, and sports game exchange will open the door to and from North Korea wider

What is "Hard Power"?

"It is a coercive approach to international political relations, one that involves the use of military and economic power to influence or control the behavior or interests of other states or political groups."

I do not want another war in Korean Peninsula. Korea had already suffered a horrible and tragic war.
Do Koreans want another war?
Do Americans want to be involved in Korean War again?

If Kim Jong Un makes a reckless decision, it will be the last decision he can make before he dies.
If there should be a war in Korea again, it will be the fastest way for Korea to be united.

What is "Soft Power"?

"It is the ability of a country to persuade others to do what it wants without force.
It is a persuasive approach to international political relations, involving the use of nation's cultural, historical and diplomatic influence."

Is there any peaceful way for Korea to be in good harmony or to be unified?

What kinds of "Soft Power" can we imagine in relations between the USA and North Korea as well as South Korea and North Korea?

The door to North Korea will be open wider through cultural exchange, educational exchange, travel exchange, and sports game exchange.

Cultural exchange, educational exchange, travel exchange, and sports game exchange will provide a lot of chances to be in good harmony and create peaceful atmospheres.


Sports games, Mass Media, Internet Access, Movies, Television dramas, Music, Books will have a great influence on changing the mind of North Korean people.

The problem is that it is not easy to find any practical ways to start the two-way exchange with North Korea.
Kim Jong Un and North Korean regime are afraid of the possibility that if information about the outside world flows into North Korea, North Korean citizens and North Korean military elites will finally overturn North Korean regime.

BBC broadcasting, sending radios and USBs are just one-way communication between North Korea and the outside world.
It has its limits, but it is a very important movement at this moment and one of the practical ways to let North Korean people know about the outside the word.



North Korean regime blocks off all the internet access to and from the outside world. North Korean people are like blind frogs in a small well. Their world is surrounded by walls.

Are the walls too high to climb up?
I do not think so.  North Koreans have their eyes blindfolded so that they do not know how high the walls are.
This is the reason why we are sending USBs, Radios, and Broadcasting to North Korea.

Is it safe to visit North Korea?
No!
Many ordinary North Korean people must be also warmhearted and kind to foreign travelers, but Kim Jong Un and his North Korean regime look foreign travelers in a different way.

2018 Winter Olympic Games will be held in Pyeongchang, South Korea.
I hope North Korean team attend the Winter Olympic Games.



I hope cultural exchange, educational exchange, travel exchange, and sports game exchange open the door to and from North Korea wider.

Is it possible someday?
When is it possible?
