They may even take hotel reservations now in Pyongyang—although I am sure this must be through an agent and in no way can be done individually—but then say, “you cannot come to the Republic until such and such a day” (maybe more like April or May. Heck what are they going to do NOW on the 100th anniversary of the birth of Kim Il Sung coming up in February is it? This was supposed to be some big blow out and Kim Jong Eun announced as God-King at that time. Boy this really blew their plans to smithereens...unless of course it was an executive action against Kim from within, which I personally think was still a possibility. I should add, that even though the South Korean works in the North Korean plant across the DMZ and near Kaesong yesterday were told to go home (back across the border to ROK) at 3 p.m., they were told to report back up to work today as normal. The eyewitnesses said nothing was particularly out of the ordinary. I find that odd that their North Korean subordinates were not all besides themselves and could not concentrate on work, akin to when John Kennedy died in the USA, but are just the normal worker bees. Again, I think official Radio and TV are just hyping this for the mass psychosis effect to keep the klan together and keep factions from developing. My fear is that they may try to hype up the external enemy, be it South Korean fishing boats, or South Korean/US troops, in order to fortify things internally. Or launch some scuds into Sea of Japan when things get warmer.

N. Koreans these days will do anything to secure basic necessities. They don't want to starve or freeze to death. Survive for another days is a hard work. Grieving for Chia Head is way down in their priority list.

This will further aggravate the likes of Kim Jong-eun. Serfs won't pay attention to them enough, making them slowly irrelevant. This is what resistance is like in N. Korea in recent days. People are shutting down, and watch S. Korean soaps, do drug among themselves, and won't care what the regime say, unless knife is drawn to their throat.

This may change into active resistance at some point.
