South Korea itself can serve as an example.
But some neighbors like China may be afraid of a strong and unified and prosperous Korea.
The next Singapore? I think North Koreans would thank their lucky stars if their country were to become the next Romania.
As far as I have read, North Korea has millions of people who live with the side effects of starving most of their lives.
Kim spends a lot of money on weaponry, but very little on agriculture for his own people. I have heard about the soils being ‘fertilized’ wit human waste. This results in perpetual contamination, breeding grounds for worms that finish their growth inside of human stomachs.
I have heard about people so hungry that they ate tree bark and grass, just like the livestock does. People stunted in both physical and mental growth. We haven’t even discussed the Post Traumatic Stress that is also a way of life in North Korea. If North K. does open up to more capitalism and development of cities, they will need to import most of those workers, probably from either China or South Korea.
No, not with this regime in power.
A unified and prosperous Korea would probably be a bigger economic power than Japan and somewhat like China.
Here’s a similar question: can a 30 year old meth head prostitute become a good wife and mother?

Miracles still happen.
No one knows how to work or run a business, other than small black market items- they will come around but it will take a long time to build anything prosperous - but workforce is a big part - East Germany is an example.
In 50 to 100 years....
All you need is a complete culture change, infrastructure, education,.....uh....FREEDOM?!?!?!?
Exactly. And that’s the only way it’s going to happen here.
Years ago Singapore had a horrific drug problem. They solved the drug problem. If you were a drug user you went to jail for a short period of time that was unpleasant in the extreme. If you sold drugs you were hanged. Singapore does not have a drug problem today.
This begs the question of whose laws in relationship to drug use is better, USA or Singapore? Today drugs in the USA cause untold grief, violence and death among innocents and criminals alike. I vote for the Singapore solution.
Believe it or not there are a LOT of Christians in South Korea.
Extraction of 6 to 10 Trillion of rare earth minerals. That's a lotta Caterpillar dozers and tons of other equipment we make and our expertise to help them extract it...

Didn’t take that long for East Germany, Poland, Hungary, etc.
