It appears the puppet state set up was thanks to the Russians in North Korea and the Russians equipping them. Then the Chinese throwing themselves into that war. Another dividing line with Russia supporting the Communist end as they also did in Germany. The Korean War isn't over, its a cease fire and an uneasy one at that in which people still have died as a result of this continued conflict. Without the Chinese interference and Russian supplies it would have been over back in the early 1950s, thanks to them both it isn't .

To counter balance what is written in the linked article, I would suggest reading these additional articles; http://www.inquiriesjournal.com/articles/1069/2/explaining-chinas-intervention-in-the-korean-war-in-1950 (this one is quite good and has supporting information and footnotes) and https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/chinese-counterattacks-in-korea-change-nature-of-war
