If North Korea were to re-unify the people would need extensive treatment - for physical starvation and other medical problems as well as mental troubles caused by horrific conditions and brainwashing. They don't understand how a real society works.

Imagine a woman who has falsely accused her grandmother of conspiring against the State just to get a few crumbs of food. A starving person will do almost anything, especially if they think they are going to die soon anyway. But then what if they live? Can such people live among the normal society, having never known normality?

The alternative is leaving things as they are or killing the vast majority with nuclear weapons.
