OTOH..had we not intervened (or, rather, had we not blundered in that intervention so egregiously), and had we not maintained our stance against North Korea as a consequence of that intervention (and those mistakes)..it's difficult to state exactly what North Korea would be like, today. "The West" is the fuel that keeps the fires burning there in Kimland, slights real or imagined. It's difficult to add anything meaningful after Anoms breakdown...but there's my contribution.
Perhaps the south -would- be like the north...and perhaps both would be a bit like China. A vast improvement over the current situation, imo.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
