Although the same could be said for the idea that they ran out of money/energy/materials/etc. to complete it, at least if those were the reasons, then it could be restarted, whereas the concrete story suggests that nothing can be done for it. Does anyone know whether this information rises above outsider speculation?
We're talking about N. Korea here. The gov't is so sectretive about everything that its probably impossible to know for sure.
