Judging from the german, very mixed experiences, I wonder if South Korea is any better suited to deal with the economic and financial consequences of a reunification. South Koreans will be surprised at what it means to clean up the mess a failed state has left behind after half a century. Germany for sure has totally, fundamentally, absolutely underestimated the costs. Back then they made promises about blossoming landscapes within just a handful of years. Today we know that East germany for the most is the fastest failiung area in all Europe, and in growing rural areas but also minor and medium sized cities gets abandoned by young population.
