Recently, North Korea's nuclear weapons program and the threat of war have reduced the nation's interest and support for unification. Even though domestic and international situations have become worse; the theme of unification remains important. As long as division continues, peace is temporary and South Korea's progress will be limited.

Unification is important, however, it is more important to attain a successful unification. We should begin preparations from this point on. The unification era is the period just before unification and the complicated period of integration. While the unification era is a time of pleasure, it will also be a mixture of social chaos and problems. There will be many difficulties, so we must be prepared for it.

In this era, each ministry should predict what role it has to play.
They should also consider how to successfully carry out a given mission, A contingency plan should be prepared, and they also need to improve their abilities to effectively perform their roles.

First of all, the Ministry of Unification should take the lead to prepare for what role it has to play in the unification era among ministries. Since the Ministry of Unification is a subordinate ministry of policy and unification policy, the ministry should examine what roles and functions would be played in the unification era. This is because the Ministry of Unification's capabilities serve as a determining factor in the realization of unification.

The purpose of this research is to review the Ministry of Unification’s role and function during the unification era and design a unified system of promotion. To accomplish this, this study intends to perform the following analyses: First, to analyze the roles and functions of the Ministry of Unification in response to the environment and administrative demands of the unification era.
Second, to discuss whether to abolish the Ministry of Unification and propose a plan for the establishment of the Unification Promotion System.

The results of the analyses show that the various social/nationwide changes can occur during the unification era; therefore, the functions of the Ministry of the Unification should be strengthened.
The functions of the unification policy, unification strategy establishment, collecting information, coordination of unification policies, diplomacy and promotion should be reinforced. After unification, the stabilization of the North Korean region and the reconstruction of the economy should be supported.

To reinforce the functions of the Ministry of Unification, it is necessary to seek a strategy from this point on. Specifically, the establishment of governance between the Ministry of Unification and the other ministries should be established. In addition, the president's resolution to strengthen the position of the Ministry of Unification and institutional measures should be followed.

The study concludes with the proposal that it is undesirable to dismantle the Ministry of Unification after unification. Therefore, it is instead advisable to change the name of the ministry to “Ministry of Integration (provisional name)”to conduct the related tasks. In the unification era, the relevant committees should be established to promptly cope with the need for unification policy. The committees would be responsible for the inspection, evaluation of the unification strategy, decision-making of key issues, seeking countermeasures, and coordinating policies among ministries.
