Funny how your flag reminds me of Kim Yo-jong who is expected to lead the country if Jong-un does indeed perish.

His sister wouldn’t be in charge for half a second. The military would overthrow her and replace her with some general. This could be the start of heading towards Korean Reunification

Dynastically there's three options:

- Kim Yo-jong (The evil Sister)

- Kim Jong-chul (The bizarre Brother)

- Kim Pyong-il (The Diplomat, and also last surviving son of Kim Il-sung the founder)

Kim Pyong-il would probably be the best choice, although unlikely to become leader.

Yes:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korean_dragon

But they are regarded as benevolent and noble creatures and not as associated with destruction.
In Chinese folklore there are different types of dragons, some more benevolent and some more destructive.

Last time a dowager ruled an East Asian nation with a large army, it collapsed in on itself.
