Those who suffer from anhedonia-related symptoms self-medicate themselves by living life in the most extreme manner possible, either living a sybaritic, extraordinarily self indulgent lifestyle or other extreme experience in order to coax endorphins out of their brain.
People like Kim Jong-un, a mentally deranged boy leader of woefully dysfunctional government uses his nuclear arsenal as the only way to feel alive. Anything else just won't cut it and he'll be moping around the house unless he can engage the US in a game of nuclear brinkmanship.

Merry Minuet Lyrics
"Merry Minuet" was written by Sheldon Harnick.
They're rioting in Africa
They're starving in Spain
There's hurricanes in Florida and Texas needs rain
The whole world is festering with unhappy souls
The French hate the Germans
The Germans hate the Poles
Italians hate Yugoslavs
South Africans hate the Dutch
And I don't like anybody very much
But we can be tranquil and thankful
And proud for man's been endowed
With a mushroom shaped cloud
And we know for certain that
Some lovely day someone will set the spark off
And we will all be blown away
They're rioting in Africa
There's strife in Iran
What nature doesn't do to us will be done by our fellow man
And he could just be a 3rd generation flaming a-hole.

My own opinion is - this is a test against CHINA.
Who is more of a threat to Kim? The USA, which is 8000 miles away, or China, who sits on his border, and has contacts, agents and spies up and down his chain of command?
When the sanctions are lifted Iran can buy nukes from North Korea.
