AB - Following the Asia-Pacific War, postwar settlement began. The goal was to disarm and neutralize the Japanese military to prevent it from waging war again. To accomplish this, the Allied Forces initiated military occupation and implemented military operations to establish military governments.
In the case of the Korean Peninsula, the 38th parallel was drawn as the operational boundary line, with U.S. and Soviet forces occupying the north and south respectively. The divided Korean Peninsula, not recognized as an independent nation, came under the direct rule of the military government established by the U.S. forces. This article revisits the process and outcomes of why this occurred. It examines the concepts of postwar settlement and military government, the characteristics of postwar settlement in Asia, a military review of the situation in Korea in August 1945, and the implementation and results of the U.S. military government, reflecting on the meaning of postwar settlement and military government.
