Northern limit line is the maritime boundary between North Korea and South Korea in Yellow Sea. Often there have been clashes between two near the boundary, though symbolic of only a larger rift between two countries.
While North Korea has dictatorship South Korea has democratically elected government. North Korea is almost a nation in separation as it has kept a closed economy and minimal interaction with the world other than China which accounts for most of its trade and other relations. The communist ideology has also kept it hostile to its neighbor South Korea.
The dispute between the two Koreas is a hangover from cold war era. North Korea saw the change of leadership last year (Kim Jong-Un) and South Korea will have new President Park Geun-hye from 2013.
Both the leaders have shown their inclination towards normalizing the relation between two neighbors. And this what that had been missing till now that may see start of a new relation between the two, better for the whole world.
