    North Korea has kept to itself for something like 70 fucking years and still people are utterly terrified that they’ll leap across the border and do Evil Communist things the moment South Korea’s back is turned

      I have to assume you’re mistaken, because we get a new “North Korea Hackers Infiltrating Bitcoin!”, “North Korea Launches Kryptonite tipped missile directly at Japan but accidentally misses!”, and “North Korea Potemkin Grocery Store Selling Fentanyl Transgender Candy With Razor Blades In It” news articles every few weeks.

      back in the 60s and 70s things were more intense, DPRK has dug tunnels under the DMZ and there have been some cross-border incidents such as the Blue House Raid

      but yeah it’s been quiet since the 90s and the Arduous March as far as I know
