Why do you expect the DPRK to collapse? It was doing much worse during the flooding in the late 90s and early 2000s, where famine was rampant. Even Forbes describes their current economy as "booming," and that support for the government is higher than ever. If they were going to collapse, it would have been in during the aforementioned Arduous March, not anytime soon.
