The Korean War was fought between North Korea and South Korea from 1950 to 1953. The war began on 25 June 1950 when North Korea invaded South Korea following years of internal instability and hostilities between the two states.

Yeah it's a real conundrum, that one

scroll down on the Wikipedia page you copied that from. it describes exactly what I'm talking about. I'm not some Hexbear shill here, the Korean war is a legit fucked up and complicated situation

Honestly why are you so adamant that international conflict must be simple? are you that naive, or are you playing with me, or what?

Who started it is very simple. North Korea started it by invading the South. I'm sorry if that annoys you but it's not a very controversial thing to say at all or something that's highly debated by historians or anything.

sigh you're really not gonna go back and read it, are you?

Operation Pokpung
Main article: Operation Pokpung

At dawn on 25 June 1950, the KPA crossed the 38th parallel behind artillery fire.[128] The KPA justified its assault with the claim that ROK troops attacked first and that the KPA were aiming to arrest and execute the "bandit traitor Syngman Rhee".[129] Fighting began on the strategic Ongjin Peninsula in the west.[130][131] There were initial South Korean claims that the 17th Regiment had counterattacked at Haeju; some scholars argue the claimed counterattack was instead the instigating attack, and therefore that the South Koreans may have fired first.[130][132] However, the report that contained the Haeju claim also contained numerous other errors and outright falsehoods.[133]

This isn't some galaxy brain conspiracy take, I'm literally just talking about this ambiguity. And I really don't feel very strongly about this issue - I'm more perturbed that you're be so obstinate about it.
