I'm talking about the leadup to the war, I'm not denying that the north invaded but it didn't happen unprovoked or even unjustified.

Just because you're korean and have some personal connection doesn't mean youre immune to propaganda or that your countrys history hasn't been misrepresented for propaganda purposes.
Kim Il Sung was a war hero who liberated the Korean peninsula from the Japanese, and almost liberated it from the USA. You're incredibly ungrateful because it's thanks to him that you're allowed to speak Korean today.
