During the Cold War era, which began with the close of World War II, the Korean peninsula found itself suspended at the polar ends of the world order, caught up in the center of the turmoil. The official ties between Korea and China, which followed this chaotic period, and the tremendous expansion in the relationship between the two countries have emerged as significant new research topics.
