The war sure explains why they have a reason to be antagonist towards South Korea and USA -- in a similar way as WW2 explains why Finland is very wary of Russia still in 2000s.

But it doesn't explain why they insist on keeping their system in the same horrible broken state. Germany and Japan were ravaged by a war and they didn't go permanently crazy at state level.
