After unification of Korea, how many North Korean foreign service officers will remain?

After unification of Korea, how many North Korean foreign service officers will remain?

In case of Germany, almost all the 2000 foreign service officers lost and only 4 remained in their position as a foreign officer.

Why?

Foreign service officers represent their countries.
The political concept and ideas between foreign service officers in East Germany and west Germany was huge.

In case of Yemen, most of foreign service officers continued to hold their positions, because they made an agreement before the unification.

What will happen in Korea?

I think all the foreign service officers in North Korea have to leave their positions, because they have the totally different political vision and ideas.

North Koreans and South Korean use difference expression and words in the same situation

Koreans use the same Korean alphabet, but there is a big gap in communication, because North Koreans and South Korean use difference expression and words in the same situation.

For example, North Koreans say "It is stinging(Ttagapda)" when they touch hot water.
South Korean say "It is hot(Tteugugda), when they touch hot water.

Koreans will have much difficulty in communication after the unification.

Some people want to return to North Korea.

Some people want to return to North Korea.
Some North Koreans who are living in South Korea are very disappointed with their new lives in South Korea and want to return to North Korea.

A North Korean whose name is Ryun Hee Kim says that she had to pay 3 million Korean won to brokers who helped her take safe journeys to South Korea.
I think it is very expensive.
Brokers should work voluntarily for North Korean refugees.

She saw homeless in the subway station. She says there are no homeless people in North Korea.

She did not understand why people paid fees at the toll gate in South Korea.

Evey school in Pyongyang City has a swimming pool.
In South Korea, only a few school have swimming pools.

She did not understand why students had to attend private institute after school. In North Korea teachers are responsible for teaching students.  Teachers know well about each student in North Korea.

After the unification of Korea, there must be a big misunderstanding between South Koreans and North Koreans.
How long does it take for North Korean to understand the democratic system?

Who manages and owns the express bus companies?

Express bus companies in North Korea are run by the local government organizations, companies, and private owners.

The Market economy system already exists in North Korea.

Even though the price of tickets is 10,000 North Koren Currency, but they request 70,000 North Korean currency for the ticket.

In the picture, all the buses are not alike.
The colors and shapes, even the sizes of the buses are totally different.
They do not think of the brand image.
