People thought that about the Soviets, that they were naive simpletons. When the Soviet Union fell, Mikhail Gorbechev ushered in an age referred to as Perestroika. The iron curtain was lifted and Russians were finally allowed the freedom to enjoy books, media, and entertainers from the West. To hold dialogue with other Europeans, Asians, even Americans. To travel the planet to any destination that would accept them. Russians, by and large, had a lot of fun with it. They were not overwhelmed, people were happy. Russia's culture began to blossom again and life went on in a much better way. I imagine when the Kim regime falls, NK will experience a similar revelation. Those poor people will finally know what it's like to have an adequate standard of living, the starvation will stop, the fear of the secret police murdering your family will disappear, and the world will discover a fascinating culture, that has been sequestered away by the hands of maniacs.
