- North Korean soldiers sent to aid Russia in Ukraine would be “cannon fodder,” the Pentagon said.
- The two nations signed a new security pact, and some Korean units look set to go to Ukraine.

Exactly. They will probably send all the citizens they want to get rid of knowing that they will likely die. It’s a win-win for Rocket Man: he gets to eradicate any ‘inferior’ or ‘disloyal’ peons while ingratiating himself to Putin.
Will the North Koreans get sufficient rations? It might be no worse than being at home.
They will also have a chance to defect and then finally have a life somewhere in Europe. Or maybe even migrate to South Korea later on.
NK will imprison their family if they defect, that’s the main thing keeping people in NK I believe.
