AB - As North Korea's recent offensive missile provocations have developed into military exercises of tactical nuclear units to show off the diversity of missile launch capabilities, rather than simple development, they pose a serious threat to peace and stability on the Korean Peninsula. The current situation perceived by the North Korean leadership is that despite the preemptive measures for denuclearization, nothing has been gained from the United States over the past three years, and it has only been used. In particular, in a situation where there is no fundamental change in hostile policy, it is rather perceived as a crisis situation in which the threat to the regime against them is further heightened. Considering these points, how does the situational variable of North Korea's crisis affect the strengthening of national defense, represented by the strengthening of nuclear force? What are the characteristics of reinforcement? etc., need to be considered. The purpose of this study is to examine the characteristics of North Korea's military strengthening through consideration of North Korea's perception of the foreign situation. In other words, how North Korea perceives the situation and how it views the United States after the collapse of the North Korea-US summit in Hanoi? And, as a result, it examines the characteristics and changes in strengthening North Korea's defense capability represented by nuclear force. The significance of this study is to provide military and security countermeasures and implications for alleviating the crisis situation in a situation where the stalemate is prolonged.
