Many South Koreans have family in the North so their wishing to send aid to the North is understandable.

Some of the most politically indoctrinated people that I have ever met were South Korean university students (I encountered these people while I lived in Germany). I had my undergraduate training at U.C. Berkeley. While I was there, I sometimes rubbed elbows with stereotype campus radicals, e.g. they'd yammer crazed Marxist polemics in Sproul Plaza, wear Che Guevara teeshirts, the standard package. These South Korean university students were at another level of indoctrination well beyond the U.C. Berkeley Che Guevara wannabe. I was not so surprised that these South Korean kids could be delusional (kids are easy to indoctrinate). However it did surprise me that the South Korean government had allowed this situation to exist. There was obviously some heavy duty North Korean indoctrination occurring in the South Korean university campuses.
