The reason DPRK is a "shithole" now is because the burger empire has been choking off their trade since USSR collapsed. The standard of living back in Soviet days war fairly high, and the economic growth there was solid. The very fact that DPRK managed to keep cohesion and make it through a hard period of sanctions shows that the system fundamentally works. Meanwhile, occupied Korea has no excuse for being a shithole.
