      I suspect that if you treat them mild nicely and provide some amenities they will just quickly realize what kind of a psychological hell hole they have been living in and immediately switch sides

      Yes, theirs did. But their families back in North Korea? I suspect their quality of life is about to get much worse.

        That’s not how it works over there. It’s a massive snitch state run by a mobster. Nobody talks to anyone about anything.

          Exactly. If they’re returned they won’t be allowed anywhere near other North Korean troops. They’ll likely be returned immediately to the DPRK and sent to a labor/prison camp so they can’t talk to anybody that might listen.
