1. Huge economic gap (GDP).
2. Although DPRK has only half of South Korea's population, it has much more military personnel.
3. DPRK has a densely militarized population, but the gap of military spending is huge. But although little when compared to South, military spending occupies a quarter of North's GDP.
4. DPRK is almost the most-corrupted country in the world. (A paradox that Communist countries tend to be corrupted rather than attaining a common welfare for the people)
5. 100% literacy rate in North Korea? It's either an un-authentic report from the government or that the regime prefer children attending school so that they can indoctrinate their ideology through brainwashing in class.
6. Although being the same ethnicity, the gap of life expectancy and average height, as well as difference in language is a sorrowful product of separation.
7. North Korea has merciless punishment for activities they define as "crime", including enjoying South Korean videos and songs, or escaping the country.
