If I do, I don't think it has much to do with me being Korean. Any move toward reunification would interest me, but not in a personal way, or at least not in an immediately personal way. I more find the idea of the two halves Korea sort of terrifying. I mean, so little land mass and so much tension and surrounding political interest. It's like the car wreck phenomenon.

I've never been made to have any personal stake in it, and not being totally Korean in the first place and not having any remaining relatives who I've actually met who are still actually citizens sort of eliminates any potential burning desire.
