In a letter, King Charles III expressed his best wishes for DPRK people´s future, which celebrated its National Day on Saturday, September 9.

Japan’s military occupation of the Korean peninsula concluded with the end of World War II and Tokyo’s surrender on August 15, 1945, as the United States took over the southern region and the then-northern Soviet Union and set the 38th parallel as the demarcation line.

After three years of failed reunification efforts, the US Government founded the Republic of Korea on August 15, 1948, and, in response, the Soviet Union established the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea on September 9, 1948, under the leadership of Kim Il-sung.
