True, despite the North Korean government overall is currently "very weak".

The good thing is that North Korea is actually trying to maintain status quo with reasonable reformation based on the outcome of the Sino Soviet Split decades ago.

We don't want to see the North Korean government collapsing within because South Korea can't suddenly handle 5-6 million North Korean refugees.

Not much of the threat when North Korea invades another country, China and Russia will take over North Korea.

This is what the American media doesn't want you to tell. Americans only know 25% of things related to the 2009 North Korean nuclear missile crisis.

People are panicking about North Korea with very little information.

Where did I see this before? Oh yes, Bush's Iraq and Afghanistan misadventures.

Sorry to say, but don't think about North Korea in the first place.

Surprising enough, I see there are some Japanese (not the Korean residents) who admire North Korea in the form of "escapism".

Can North Koreans leave the country?

But why??

It's called self-imposed isolationism. You can't talk reasons with North Korea. It's that simple.

North Korean elites wouldn't accept their crimes are evil. I don't see any reasons why we should be angry at North Korea when North Korea stays cold stone all the time.

Hating North Korea is a very prone and useless way to openly admit "I don't care about North Korea".

Save your energy from criticizing North Korea because it's a very pointless action to criticize this controversial country.

Only approximately 0.0002-3% of North Korean population is well-documented defected.

That's not a lot.

Please think beyond the Western propaganda, ozkai.
