(minimum of 3 paragraphs)

For 62 years, North Korea and South Korea have been divided by the Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ), a buffer zone that runs along the 38th parallel line and serves as the site of many skirmishes between the countries. 

Despite thousands of years of common heritage, North and South Korea are not just divided geographically. Overly nearly six decades of separation, their economies and social structures have diverged and relations between the two nations are heated, often seeming only a few diplomatic missteps away from war (read more: North Korean vs. South Korean Economies). 

Today, over 30,000 American troops are stationed in South Korea to help deter such an outcome. U.S. military forces regularly take part in war games in the region. Despite all the public acrimony, North and South Korea have been meeting for decades to try to negotiate a peaceful reunification of their countries. But is such a thing even possible anymore?

Some politicians and investors have speculated that reunification between the two nations could happen in the next decade. In 2014, famed commodity investor, Jim Rogers, predicted in an interview with Futures Magazine that the two nations would be unified by the end of the decade and said that a unified Korea, “will be the most exciting country in the world for a decade or two.

In order to quicken the unification, the two leaders of the North and the South should meet each other. However, unlike North Korea, South Korean politicians have a wide range of opinions on how to approach the summit talks between the North and the South. During the previous two administrations, President Kim and President Roh, left-wingers with liberal thoughts, argued that unconditional summit talks must take place. Right-wingers with conservative thoughts claimed that only after North Korea agrees to denuclearize the Korean Peninsula, to solve human rights problems and to send back to South Korea all those who were kidnapped during the Korean War and the Cold War, a summit talk would be possible. Of course, this discrepancy of opinions is possible and should be respected because South Korea is based on solid democracy. The only concern here is how current President Lee Myoung-bak would persuade people with conservative views.

President Lee no doubt bases his view on the platform of the conservative party, the Grand National Party in South Korea. This party garners the largest support from the conservatives in Korea. The conservatives tend to be more suspicious of North Korea, and President Lee might be justifiably worried about losing support among the conservatives when he talks about the possible third summit talks. Nevertheless, President Lee should not waste time worrying about this possibility. Politics is always about gains and losses. You cannot win everything; you need to lose something in order to gain something. If you can gain more than what you lose, you should act on that.

Doing as Richard Nixon did, President Lee should calculate the political gains and losses wisely. President Nixon was representative of anti-communists, conservatives and right-wingers in the 1960s and 70s. Yet, he made his mark on world history by visiting communist China in February 1972. With the help of Henry Kissinger, Nixon opened a new gate to fight off the Soviet Union and ultimately succeeded in separating the two giants of communist nations. This visit might have been political suicide during the Cold War. However, his visit was possible because he was a conservative and hard-liners wouldn’t go after him.

take five to 10 minutes to warm up and cool down properly.

plan to start slowly and boost your activity level gradually unless you are already exercising frequently and vigorously.

be aware that training too hard or too often can cause overuse injuries like stress fractures, stiff or sore joints and muscles, and inflamed tendons and ligaments. sports prompting repetitive wear and tear on certain parts of your body — such as swimming (shoulders), jogging (knees, ankles, and feet), tennis (elbows) — are often overuse culprits, too. a mix of different kinds of activities and sufficient rest is safer.

listen to your body. hold off on exercise when you're sick or feeling very fatigued. cut back if you cannot finish an exercise session, feel faint after exercise or fatigued during the day, or suffer persistent aches and pains in joints after exercising.

if you stop exercising for a while, drop back to a lower level of exercise initially. if you're doing strength training, for example, lift lighter weights or do fewer reps or sets.

for most people, simply drinking plenty of water is sufficient. but if you're working out especially hard or doing a marathon or triathlon, choose drinks that replace fluids plus essential electrolytes.

choose clothes and shoes designed for your type of exercise. replace shoes every six months as cushioning wears out.

for strength training, good form is essential. initially use no weight, or very light weights, when learning the exercises. never sacrifice good form by hurrying to finish reps or sets, or struggling to lift heavier weights.

exercising vigorously in hot, humid conditions can lead to serious overheating and dehydration. slow your pace when the temperature rises above 70°f. on days when the thermometer is expected to reach 80°f, exercise during cooler morning or evening hours or at an air-conditioned gym. watch for signs of overheating, such as headache, dizziness, nausea, faintness, cramps, or palpitations.

dress properly for cold-weather workouts to avoid hypothermia. depending on the temperature, wear layers you can peel off as you warm up. don't forget gloves.
