After the Second World War ended, while North Korea was installing their communist government, South Korea was developing a republic. The Korean War took place from 1950 to 1953. United Nations forces assisted South Korea against North Korean attacks, which were supported by China. In 1953, a treaty was signed splitting the peninsula at the 38th parallel. Around 4 million immigrants crossed the border to South Korea after the establishment of North Korea. Since the 1960s, there has been a substantial movement to a more urbanized environment from a traditionally rural lifestyle.
