Answer 2

There are a number of books that I recommend that you read. They are about the History of Korea, and you need to look at the "occupation of Korea" by the Japanese in 1904 (or 1905). Also books on the United Nations, on the Potsdam and Cairo agreements between Stalin, Churchill and Roosevelt relating to Korea after WW-2.

Truman violated a number of aspects of the Potsdam and Cairo agreements ~~ about not allowing nation-wide elections in 1948, rearming the Japanese soldiers, Japanese Secret Police and Korean Collaborators of the Japanese to suppress local dissidents complaining about no election or freedoms etc. Truman also created the "Republic of South Korea" in violation of the Cairo and Potsdam agreements and the UN Charter.

As for who invaded who -- (it is commonly accepted that the North invaded the South), but there is documentation that it was actually the South who invaded the North.
I am unsure what to believe.
There were two Australian military personnel, a Navy Lt.Commander and an Army Major who were attached to the UN border mission who, along with a British diplomat visited both sides of the border in the days prior to the war and wrote a report sent both directly to the UN and to their respective governments, which was suppressed by the US during the UN Security Council debate on Korea. The report shows that the South were building up troops in the south and there were large troop movements in the south while there was no activity in the north.

I did an essay on "What was the cause of the Korean War?" for the first year of my BA [Asian Studies] Honours degree and received a very high mark for the essay
