In addition to that, the North economic state has plummeted due to their dictatorship as well as hereditary succession of power. As the world started to stop supporting the North, they replied by engaging military acts against the South.
With all the happenings including the sinking of "Cheonan" warship, both South Korea and the US decided that the military operation control of the US to be extended from 2012 to 2015. Let us hope that the North will come to realize that their only solution to survival is to cooperate with the world instead of being isolated, and start that by talking with the closest nation, South Korea.

On the other hand, the South Korean public is going to kick the pro-American president out of the office possibly in the next year.
Plus, there are evidences that the Cheonan was either sunken by the US Navy or the South Korean navy.
This time, Obama has to trust North Korea.
