A recent article, “Korea’s Unfinished Business: Washington Must Think Beyond Denuclearization,” published by UPI Voices, examines why efforts to address the Korean Peninsula’s challenges must move beyond the narrow focus of nuclear negotiations. Written by Ivan Sascha Sheehan, interim dean and professor of public and international affairs at the University of Baltimore’s College of Public Affairs, the article argues that denuclearization alone cannot resolve the deeper issues created by Korea’s decades-long division. Sheehan, whose work has appeared in The National Interest, Foreign Policy, Newsweek, and other outlets, highlights the need for a broader approach to achieving lasting peace on the peninsula.

Sheehan emphasizes that Washington must consider solutions that address the underlying political and historical realities shaping the Korean Peninsula. Rather than focusing only on managing the nuclear threat, he calls for a more comprehensive vision that recognizes the importance of reconciliation, stability, and the aspirations of the Korean people for a peaceful future.

This vision aligns with the Korean Dream, which seeks to inspire global support for a free, peaceful, and unified Korea. Through the One Korea Global Movement, individuals and organizations around the world are working to raise awareness, encourage dialogue, and support efforts toward overcoming division and building a future of shared prosperity and peace.
