#1 I'm not an expert but I think NKor is too cold, too wet and doesn't have enough sunshine to grow good opium poppies.

#3 From what I read in the article, it appears they're in the "transportation" end of the business. All this article needed was McGarrett and Dano reading WoFat his rights while they put him in cuffs.

#4 Heroin sales are a form of hard currency conversion for the Nkors. Has anyone asked if the Nkor climate is condusive to cultivating large scale opium harvests. There has been a long standing suspicion that Pakistan has traded Afghan opium and Paki nuclear technology for Nkor missiles. The North Korean Advisory Group report pointed this out as far back as 1999.
