    What will come next for the NKorean people as a whole, I wonder.
    I must say that the both of them seemed genuine. Moon was gracious and Kim seemed relieved.

    I read that all of the press was kept away in another building except for a few selected State photographers.

    There's just something about a US leader standing up firmly to the bad guys. (e.g., "Mr Gorbacev, tear down this wall."). It just works better than namby-pamby responses.

    Here is another one:

    Kim Jong Un may well have a new vision to get to a solution that gets him what his country needs and can turn him from Pariah to Peacemaker.

    Maybe the thought process went something like this.

    KJU-to-Self:
    1 Hmmm, looks like those nuke tests have gone too far (and collapsed the mountain)
    2 I also see that "Communist" China has done well in operating as a capitalistic model under-the-hood
    3 Great Leader and Dear Leader's old school ways still are an economic mess (no disrespect, ancestors) and ain't cutting it --gotta try something radically different
    4 It's time to participate in the wealth of my brothers in the South - they really want to unify, what have I got to lose?
    5 And our participation in the last Olympics seemed to have generated positive buzz, especially for my "cheerleader beauties"
    6 I'm tired of being the bad guy - I want the world to love me
    7 Hello world, meet the new Kim Jong Un

    Semi-joking aside, praying for real change from the man.

    I can see Kim wanting the wall down. His country is dying. Yet, when he is well stocked he could in a blink find the South sleeping. I dont in the least trust him to change, can a leopard change it’s spots?

    I recall the famous Reagan Quote: Trust but verify. But yes it takes awhile to prove out change and create a track record of credibility. A very slow and deliberate process and checkpoints can be expected here.

    I suspect this is going to be a lot about pragmatism from KJU POV.

    I expect US and SK will keep the shotgun loaded and sanctions ready regardless.
