How would you describe it then? From what I understand Juche describes itself as pretty socialist. Legislative body is dominated by "Worker's Party of Korea". I know in practice it's more like a dictatorship but that is often the case when people try to implement socialism.

A theocratic dictatorship. The people there see the Kim's as literal gods. Even the grandfather still has the position of Eternal Leader.

Look up Christopher Hitchens speaking about NK and its religious ideologies. Pretty crazy shit.
