Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Eventually an armistice was signed in July 1953, bringing an end to the fighting. Although the armistice was signed by the United Nations, the North Koreans and the Chinese and agreed to by the south Koreans, this was not a peace treaty.

Detailed explanation-2: -The war began on 25 June 1950 when North Korea invaded South Korea following clashes along the border and rebellions in South Korea. North Korea was supported by China and the Soviet Union while South Korea was supported by the United States and allied countries. The fighting ended with an armistice on 27 July 1953.

Detailed explanation-3: -On July 27, 1953, seven months after President Eisenhower’s inauguration as the 34th President of the United States, an armistice was signed, ending organized combat operations and leaving the Korean Peninsula divided much as it had been since the close of World War II at the 38th parallel.

Detailed explanation-4: -Thus, shortly after the war, North Korea saw a speedy recovery under Kil Il Sung. The country re-opened its old mines, established new mines, and built chemical and metal factories. In 1955, two years after Stalin’s death, Kim Il Sung grew bold enough to bring up the concept of Juche or self-reliance.
