Same History, Different Experiences and Memories: Simulations Involving History Education in a Post-Unification Korean Peninsula by the Students of the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile

Although lingering tensions on the Korean Peninsula continue, the possibility still exists that the two Koreas will suddenly be reunified just like Germany. This research analyzes the junior panel discussions on history education after Korean reunification based on international seminars on Korean Studies hosted by the Pontificia Universidad Cat?lica de Chile. Undergraduate students majoring in different fields participated in the junior panel between 2011 and 2018. The panel discussed various foreseeable outcomes based on the supposition that the two Koreas were politically reunited in a loose federation or an economic community. Several topics discussed during this research involved searching for solutions to significant problems that might realistically arise straight after unification.
