What is interesting is what I heard about what denuclearization actually means. The term's history is that it was created to give DPRK a softer target. Denuclearization means to them that the US will stop protecting SK with our nuclear weapons, and that at some point in the distant future they will dismantle their program. When there is discussion of the denuclearization of the Korean peninsula, this is how the north perceives it, or I should say has in the past. We can't say for certain that the same is true for the present Chairman Kim, but it is likely the case.
