We laugh at North Korea in the west but we forget that Korea is split country tied together by family ties and language, and it has a fundamental drive for reunification, much like how Germany once was. A unified Korea would not necessarily be under US control like South Korea is now.

North Korean and South Korean is like a Mexican speaking with a Spaniard. You say you laugh at 'North Korea' in the west, but I would probably argue the closest to the West you have come is Vladivostok
