It's not that they got "infected," they got occupied, and were under a brutal fascist dictatorship for decades. The brutal repression has resulted in a starkly divided ROK. I have a lot of sympathy for the southern half of Korea, and those trying to kick out US Imperialism.

Good correction, and I empathize with them too.
