"I really doubt the population actually likes him or is "hypnotized" by him. They just can't do anything about him (it's hard to perform an uprising when you're starving)."

Really? They have very little knowledge of the outside world, their media broadcasts nothing but pro-government material and the last real contact they had with SK and the US is, y'know, that war they had with them. The one where the South Koreans and the US killed their people, whether it was justified or not. They haven't forgotten about that yet.

So to say they all secretly hate Kim Jong Un and want to be reunited with SK is a bit outlandish.
