Q: Do you think that North Korea will turn into democracy after the death of their supreme leader?

A: That question is rather interesting; however politics is not my topic really. I am not 100% confident what would be the outcome if their leader died. Frankly speaking, I am not even sure who their supreme leader is right now. I am a developer and this question falls beyond my scope of experience. I would gladly answer any question about IT industry instead. But I would like to research that topic and get back with an answer if you need it from me.

My rough estimation would be that Korea stays the same. But it's anybody's guess, really.
