There is great anticipation among conservative voters, in particular, concerning her policy toward North Korea, a country that continues to be as unpredictable as ever. (Witness Kim Jong-un’s sudden dismissal of senior military officer Ri Yong-ho, anointment of himself as a marshal, and revelation that he had married a woman first glimpsed when she accompanied him to a concert featuring appearances by Disney’s Mickey and Minnie Mouse.)
但最令人感兴趣的还是朴槿惠。特别是在保守派选民中，人们对其对朝政策抱有极大希望。朝鲜仍是个永远令人捉摸不透的国家，比如，金正恩突然间便将高级军官李英浩解职、给自己加上元帅头衔，又默示自己已经结婚。他的妻子首次露面是陪同他出席迪士尼米老鼠音乐会。到目前为止，朴槿惠还没有透露丝毫针对朝鲜的想法，她认为选民会信任她的外交天赋。
