Cultural differences between North Korea and South Korea

First of all there are a lot of political and economic differences between the two countries. After world war II North Korea inherited a communistic form of government from the USSR, while South Korea became a democracy. The war had completely disrupted the country and left an uneasy government. There are great cultural differences because they have developed separately from each other, and while South Korea is doing better and better, North Korea is always into trouble. While South Korea has experienced economic success and Christianity, North Koreans are starving.
The large number of refugees from the North migrating into the South and economic and political instability are some of the problems between them, as the contrasting political ideologies and the great discrimination.
There is also a difference in the religious development, the number of protestant believers has multiplied at an amazing rate at South Korea. Since the Korean War, it has been illegal to be a Christian in North Korea.
As North Koreans migrates, they sometimes have problems finding their place, because they are treated differently by many South Koreans.
