12-year cycle and the end of the regime in North Korea

Question: If I recall correctly, Master Saint Germain mentioned last year that the upcoming 12 years would be highly volatile, characterized by significant shifts in dictatorial regimes. Barely a year has passed and we have already witnessed the removal of two such leaders, Maduro in Venezuela and Khamenei in Iran. In light of this, can we expect a tangible shift in the power structure of North Korea within this 12-year time frame or perhaps over the next two decades?

Answer from the Ascended Master Saint Germain through Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 Kazakhstan Conference.

Yes, you can indeed expect significant shifts in North Korea over the next 12 years. Again, there is always free will. We have explained before that Putin has exceeded his natural lifespan and is kept in embodiment partly because many people still support him, partly because many people are afraid of what is going to happen in Russia if he is not there anymore.

And you have a similar dynamic in North Korea, where there are people who have been so brainwashed their whole lives, that they will support Kim Jong-un no matter what. But there are also a growing number of people who are simply afraid of what would happen if he was not there. They are partly afraid of chaos, but they are also afraid that they would be taken over by South Korea because, again, they have been brainwashed to believe that the people of South Korea would be more tyrannical towards them than their own government. This is, of course, a complete fiction, a result of very heavy propaganda, because the people of South Korea want only the best for the people of the North. But nevertheless, this needs to shift before Kim Jong-un, his sister, his daughter, and others can be removed from power. And it is very likely that it will shift within the next 12 years, and it is not necessarily towards the end of the 12 years. But as I said, there must be a shift in the North Korean population where they begin to disbelieve the propaganda and ask themselves some questions of why, if they have such a divine leader, they are so poor and barely have enough to feed their children. And what would actually happen if he was removed? Would they be better off than they are now?

I foresee this happening. It is already in the process of happening, in large part because the students of South Korea, the ascended master students, have been so steadfast in their cause and their vision of a united Korea.
