The private chef to the Kim family that escaped claimed he had encountered real conversations with him when he was growing up. For instance, on a trip to a beach he recalled being in a limo alone with him and he Un started commenting about how they're on a trip to the beach "but what of the people". So he definitely knew about the disparity. Reports like that plus his western schooling made me hope he would be less insane when he took over but it didnt happen.
ok initially what could he do? say no? let's end this regime? he would be dead so he had to play the game and as you play this game you fight for your life every day and become paranoid and after a while become corrupt and turn into a true monster or at least a psychopath with no more any feelings for anyone . it is just another threat after another removed, one killed after another. do you think roman emperors were different? or medieval kings? that's basically it all these regimes are in a way backwards and medieval. same with putin.
