History
Origin
The Juchesasangpa was in part a reaction to Park Chung-Hee's Yushin Constitution,[citation needed] which is described as authoritarian.[1] The collapse of the Soviet Union and anti-communism laws in South Korea have had, and continue to have, a negative effect on the perception of Juche ideology in South Korea. Initial North Korean sympathizing groups were ostensibly created without outside influence. However, some groups have ties to the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.[which?]
Student activity
Nearly 10,000 students across South Korea protested the arrest of Moon Ik-hwan after he illegally travelled to North Korea in 1989 to meet with Kim Il-Sung to discuss Korean reunification.[2] Students at Yonsei University protested illegally in 1996 for Korean Reunification at a North-supported rally, where the event turned violent and students fought with riot police.[3]
Criticism
Leftist movements in South Korea are often referred to as "chinbuk" (pro-North), "Jongbuk" (pursuant to North), and "Jusapa" (Juche proponent) by Korean conservatives, anti-communists, and others critical of the North. Criticism is sometimes directed at whether or not Juche ideology even allows for political discussion.[4]
