Stalin wanted to see Communism expand as long as he did not get involved in a 'hot war' with America. The trigger for the war was when, in 1950, Syngman Rhee boasted that he was going to attack North Korea. It was a good enough excuse - the North Koreans invaded South Korea. This started the actual fighting.
