How is Russia different from North Korea? How did Kim Jong Un influence Vladimir Putin? What do South Koreans think about the conflict in Ukraine? I discussed these topics with Andrey Lankov, South and North Koreas expert, in the new interview for Varlamov Talks channel. He also told me how proud Koreans are of K-pop music and Squid Game, why South Korea needs nuclear weapons, and most importantly, whether Koreans still eat dogs.
