I know North Koreans and South Koreans are the same people, but the Korean war was decades ago already and at this point, uniting both countries would be more troublesome than ever.
It must be a process. If Kim is kicked out, and his expensive toys are taken away from him, he must first be replaced with a democratic North Korea for circa 10-20 years, then reunite.
