Current international conflicts, including the U.S.-China strategic competition and the Russia-Ukraine war, are accelerating the formation of rigid geopolitical blocs in Northeast Asia. Within this region, this paper focuses on the Korean Peninsula to specify the main driving force of the conflicts. Its aim is to establish a comprehensive framework that will help identify practical pathways for peaceful resolution. In this way, the paper hopes to help prevent localized tensions from escalating into a full-scale inter-bloc confrontation.
