I'm no expert on this either, but when talking to my Korean friends about this issue, they tell me that the cost of catching North Korea up with the South would be too high, and they can't possibly afford it at their current state. I just noticed that your comment was posted in 2003, so I hope you found your answer by now. If not though, here's the URL to an interesting article I found
