The discussion of International relations is best done when language is used rationally and rhetoric is kept to a minimum (which is what I suspect the lack of distinction, if it exists in the mainstream, may be a result of rather than the fact that Koreans don't actually have the intelligence to tell the difference).
To say there is no difference in South Korea doesn't mean that there isn't a difference. It just means you're ignoring it.
Another example of such stupidity would be not knowing the difference between a Muslim and a terrorist. Not knowing the difference between a mosque and a cultural centre. Not knowing the difference between being AT ground zero to being TWO BLOCKS away from ground zero.

It's not stupidity but good guess. South Korea still has this
1960s Cold War era political mentality to today. Nothing really changed except for the attitudes.
