The amygdala houses the emotional phase in the development of cognitive formation. The Korean word for this body is 편도체 pyeondoche. This body influences cognitive reactions, both emotional and physical, to direct or covert force.
On the Korean peninsula, millions of North Koreans, as well as their estranged peninsula neighbors, have building fears and anxieties. In the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK), officials continue to collaborate and contribute to this burdening life experience. It explains their own internal state disruptions, such as their weakness to provide a quality of life for the population and well-confirmed acts of psychopathy.

PyeongChang. State governments, international organizations, NGOs and other private entities have an opportunity, and a responsibility, to initiate a similar level of competency as “ping-pong” diplomacy, witnessed in April 1971. That action, 46 years ago, helped to reduce tensions between China and the United States. It broadened the road map required in making future international decisions.
Obvious N.K. military-industrial designs, determined by dysregulated behaviors, will not provide any alleviation from compulsive gaming in nuclear missile delivery systems and chronic severe, regional avoidance.
A photo, taken in 2013, of Mr. Kim Jong-Un, sitting alone on a ski lift, tells the motivating principle of the current situation: a man seeking approval for his self-interests, his self-reliance, but caught in the machine of power politics, run by others. It does not reflect an imaginary theme where the leader moves towards reunification, as in a drama.

Mr. Kim’s drive for power reflects the social dynamics of his position; but, a fluid intelligence can deviate from a dysfunctional regime. Waiting too long to reach an accommodating agreement on the exhibition of kinetic technology will deny any modifications and positive outcomes, wholly needed by every negotiating base.
Mr. Kim’s DPRK honors the torch of 주체 Juche, which symbolized the concept of the self-reliant communist leader, who employs self-defense to protect the mythological, socialist state. The DPRK must know that its performance stands on thin ice. The leadership of N.K. can manage the concept of Juche to prevent a complete breakdown of control factors, caused by inadequately meeting international obligations.
Perhaps an effort by the N.K. government to join with the Olympic spirit will subside conflicting modalities and lead to a more defined form of self-reliance. If not, the Olympic torch will burn brightly in PyeongChang, with the Korean population separated, again, caused by a regime that has supplanted self-reliance with disqualification, inefficiency and necessity.
