Introduction:
The Korean issue is as yet significant today, in spite of the fact that it is continued for over 70 years. The issue has not been settled at this point and the actors linked with this issue are the same, however some of them have gotten stronger, and others become more fragile. There are multiple changes in the main opposing Parties on the Korean Peninsula. In any case, the pith of the issue has persisted the same, as in the past — Korea is the point of the battle of the powerful states. Consequently, even today, the Korean issue ought to be seen through the view of modern realities. This implies that the unification is very genuine with legitimate support and help from the nations associated with the Korean issue, and with the mutual comprehension of the Koreans.
As it is known, probably the hottest spot on the planet is the Korean Peninsula, because of the disturbance of the nuclear missile crisis. Be that as it may, in last Kim Jong Un's New Year's welcome, the discourse was diverse in content, structure, form, and tone. The distinctiveness was that the attention was on discovering changes in inter-Korean relations by demonstrating dynamic signals to compromise. Along these lines, it was felt that the summit of RK - DPRK is inescapable, yet nobody anticipated that it should occur so rapidly. On the off chance that the RK — DPRK summit was by one way or another anticipated, yet nobody anticipated the Trump and Kim Jong Un's meeting may occur so soon, considering the engagements that have been heard from the two sides. In this manner, the Olympic Games in Pyeongchang turned into a change point in the crisis on the Korean Peninsula. Obviously, such a sharp transformation in inter-Korean relations brings up numerous issues, however, one thing is evident another period in the Korean problem has started.
The delegation additionally visited China, Russia, and Japan to educate them about the outcomes regarding the negations and debate possibilities for inter-Korean relations. Because of the visit, the delegation talked about the details of the gathering between Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un. The gathering of the pioneers of the United States and the DPRK came a surprise and the subject of hot discourse in the modern political world for a little while. Politicians, researchers, journalists were worried about whether they could cut the most convoluted knots of the Korean issue, regardless of whether the recent round of normalization would be practical, whether it would really develop into the procedure of denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula and whether it would get one of the phases of peaceful reunification of Korea.
Kim Jong Un’s visit to China
Kim Jong Un's visit to China and the gathering with Xi Jing Ping show that Kim Jong Un's policy is a long way from being simple. By the start of the Pyeongchang Olympiad, North Korea got an agreeable situation for haggling with China, Republic of Korea, and the United States. Hence, in this procedure way, Kim Jong Un didn't simply visit China. Unmistakably Kim Jong Un, who, in the wake of ascending the throne in 2011, never left North Korea, however, visited China multiple times, planning to build up past relations with the PRC, to get support from China, and to develop policies in the negotiation routes with the Republic of Korea and the United States.
Normally, gigantic obstructions will emerge in the way of settling every one of these issues, in any case, presumably, it is important to build up a reasonable arrangement and make all possible efforts to arrive at an agreement in comprehending complex issues. The Korean issue events of the first portion of 2018 can be called swift-flowing, unpredictable, and extraordinary. In spite of numerous negative explanations, the DPRK-RK and the DPRK-USA summits were effectively wrapped up. Obviously, the key political occasions were the gatherings of Kim Jong Un with Moon Jae in and Donald Trump. It is important to stress that the 2018 summits can turn into another phase in the solution of the Korean issue and the start of another period throughout the entire existence of the Korean Peninsula. At the RK-DPRK summit, which occurred on 27th of April 2018, at the border area of Panmunjom, was marked an announcement on peace, prosperity, and unification of the Korean Peninsula.
The important role of China’s leader Xi Jinping:
Obviously, China's pioneer Xi Jinping assumed a significant role, and China's help assumed an important role in deciding the strategies and methodology of the meetings. The way that the young Kim Jong Un before the summit visited Xi Jinping multiple times for a quarter of a year for a discussion proposes that Pyongyang is in critical need of help and backing of China. In this manner, irrespective of the effects of the summit, Beijing was at the focal point of the negotiation process on the Korean issue. This implies everyone interested on normalizing of the relations with North Korea will be compelled to apply to Beijing for help since its impact on Pyongyang is more than self-evident. The total denuclearization of North Korea, which is the point of the United States, Tokyo and Seoul, is conceivable just with Beijing's assurance that Kim Jong Un won't have a similar fate as Muammar Gaddafi or Saddam Hussein, that his system won't be ousted. As indicated by various specialists, regardless of the way that the relations between China and North Korea have arrived at a fundamentally depressing spot by the start of 2018, the present arrangement of the DPRK and the activities of its leaders are enormously impacted by China.
Future North Korea:
After the memorable summits of China, South Korea propelled a struggle for the 'future North Korea'. In spite of the fact that the sanctions against the DPRK have not been dropped up until this point, various nations, for example, Russia and Japan, are indicating an exceptionally dynamic enthusiasm for the North Korean task reestablishment. Be that as it may, China and South Korea have a unique enthusiasm for DPRK, where future financial advantages are intently entwined with geopolitical plans. Seoul and Beijing have just created policies for active penetration into North Korea through different ventures and other cooperative projects, trying to guarantee that Pyongyang has picked the development way for each nation's benefit. The interests of China and South Korea don't correspond, which will bring about dynamic challenges on the domain of North Korea later on. Also, North Korea, in light of the methodology, means to utilize the logical inconsistency so as to get the greatest advantage for itself.
Conclusion
Regarding the intensification of North Korean relations with China and South Korea, all together not to remain distant from the events, it is important to build up an extraordinary system of relations, above all else with North Korea and furthermore with the encompassing great powers. The occasions of June-July 2018 on the Korean Peninsula ought to be accounted as an endeavor to lose the bunch of inconsistency, which is connected with the universal political procedures at the worldwide level. The Korean issue at all phases of its improvement has its very own eccentricity - high activity and the impact of universal components, which influence the issue, and are utilized in various ways by the Republic of Korea and the DPRK.
