I'm not a politician of that country. But if I had to guess

Reciprocity

Usually open borders between countries requires a bilateral agreement between the countries to allow that movement. So opening the border for people to get stuck in the other country isn't great. And countries typically don't let that happen.

South Koreans certainly can fly to China and then take the land border into North Korea. Nothing stopping that

Excuses, if South Korea was so damn certain of their superiority, they'd allow unrestricted immigration into the North, afterall, isn't this the reverse of what you're saying?

I'm saying we should do an experiment allowing people to move freely to wherever they want between the two countries. I'm not saying anything else. I'm not making any assortations about quality of life, because it's not up to me it's about the people who live there.

Modifying the countries, or anything else is not my place, cuz I don't live there

Well thats not how real life works, and wondering about such experiments is a waste of time, its never going to happen. The situation with Korea is only resolved through war as long as the US is involved.

So you're saying South Korea does not have a right to exist?

Yes

Any other countries on your hit list?

The West in general, atleast in its current form.

What counts as the West?

What is commonly refered to the political West. The political bloc based on Western imperialism, im not going to list every country.

Okay. What gives a group of people the right to have self-determination? The right to form their own country?

Fiji is a country aligned with the West, I think. Does Fiji have a right to exist? Under what circumstances would Fiji have the right to exist? I want to understand the criteria

I did specify "in its current form" (meaning economically and politically, not statehood itself) for the West in general. Im a staunch defender of self-determination of nations, but self-determination doesn't include the oppresion and exploitation of other nations.

Korea being a split nation the only rightfull outcome is unifying the North and South, and obviously i prefer unifying them under the socialist North, rather than the imperialist South.

You said all Western countries don't have the right to exist.

Fiji is a Western country.

Are you now saying Fiji has a right to exist?

Is your position that all countries have a right to exist but not a right to influence other countries?

I'm trying to understand the philosophy behind your statements please help me
