But consider this: what would happen to the Kim family if reunification occurred? He would have to be tried for crimes against humanity, and if he realized he was going to be sent to prison, why would he go without a fight? How could this possibly come to pass?
The only way it could happen would be if he were completely pardoned, which is logical if it benefits the greater good at no further cost, but very against human nature.
In all likelihood, by his perception, he's done nothing wrong! So...it won't be something to discuss, for him. It would be a great offense and a threat.

It's happened in the past, e.g. with Pinochet — and later on the Spaniards went after him anyway, in spite of the amnesty and in spite of the bad example this would set for future dictators.
