Iranian getting their centrifuges hacked probably has to do more with geography than cyber. Israel is a powerful ally. I would compare South Korea more to a US protected country than to an ally. Given the dynamics with China, the Asian region is "less controllable" than Persia.
They have a lot less money than South Korea, and their political system is...what it is...but I don't see any reason a North Korean can't study just as hard as a South Korean and achieve similar results.
I think people confuse North Korea's suffering with weakness. I'll grant that there is a lot of hunger, but the mission from the beginning, of the guerrilla fighters who now run the country, was sovereignty at all costs. And I'd say purely in terms of sovereignty North Korea is doing remarkably well.
