I mean, the response here was a blog post, which doesn't feel particularly upplayed. I also virtually never hear about NK from anyone or fear of NK from anyone day to day, nor do I hear about it particularly often from policy makers. No one is campaigning on fear of NK that I have seen.
Perhaps TN is just a radically different world, I'd frankly believe it, but I haven't seen anything too significant at all. The last time people were really concerned about NK for like... 3 days, I think it was ~2012 or so.

I wasn't criticizing the blog post, I was responding to a comment in this thread that claimed that for some strange reason the danger of NK is systemically underplayed by the media. I argue that no, the media more typically overplays it, much like it overplays the threat from other non-peer nations. I'm assuming you don't feel like the news is telling you that Iran is a threat either... Which would put you in an informed minority.
