The Cheonan incident occurred on 26 March 2010 has put the security issue of Korean Peninsula back into the spotlight. Institutionalist scholars emphasize that ''institution and regime can create opportunities of cooperation for nations and can produce an effect on resolving the conflict peacefully. ''This viewpoint of applying International Institution to resolve regional security problem is conceivable. If North Korea can be brought into the institutionalized International Organization and interact with other actors, the impact of normative effect of the International Institution and International Organization on North Korea who is eager to develop nuclear weapons will be expanded. In this circumstance, the chance of keeping peace on the Korean Peninsula is becoming possible. In this article, we will begin with introducing the construction and development of the Korean Peninsula Security System and review the function and meaning of the ''Korean Peninsula Energy Development Organization'' (KEDO), which was set up in 1995 and aimed to control the development of nuclear weapon in North Korea. Furthermore, this article will analyze the meaning of EU's involvement in the process of controlling the development of nuclear weapon in the North Korea under the structure of KEDO. The main focus will be whether the EU with its growing importance in the global security network can contribute to the security problem of North Korea. Based on the analysis, the prospect of the possible security development in the Korean Peninsula will be discussed. |
