Probing North Korea's economic development strategy with a view toward a unified Korea.
 
This book undertakes a full-scale exploration of North Korea's economic development strategy spanning from the era of Kim Il Sung to that of Kim Jong Un.
 
The North Korean economic development strategy probed by the author—a journalist with a career specializing in North Korean affairs—will make it possible to address the economic question, one of the major challenges facing a unified Korea ahead of future unification, from a more specialized perspective, and by approaching the reality of the North Korean economy, it will be able to reasonably resolve the prejudices commonly held about the North Korean economy.
 
Although there are many voices of concern about the various problems that would arise in the event of unification, it will serve as a good reference for preparing a future in which South and North live together and achieve common prosperity.
