Kim Jong-Un disbanded Taep'oong Group for its low profitability. Taep'oong Group is a Pyongyang-based North Korean company established by the National Defence Commision of North Korea that supplies the North Korean military with liquidity.
The company's poor financial performance was officially reported, but the report itself is questionable.
Recently Ri Young-ho was purged, in order for Kim Jong-Un to take over the military.
Kim Jong-Un's actions to weaken the power of other military officials is proof that Kim Jong-Un hasn't dominated the military yet. In these circumstances, Kim Jong-Un's recent actions will not be welcomed in the North Korean military.
Not only did he purge Ri Young-ho, but he cut off the financial supplier of the military?! The military will definitely be hostile to Kim Jong-Un.
North Korean specialists are already predicting that a coup in North Korea is near. Kim Jong-Un is only pouring oil on the flame by suffocating the military.

Interesting, friendly neighbourhood dictators do have their problems don't they.
The regime ain't what it used to be and a coup could also spark a civil war if the
citizens are really dissatisfied with the present situation.

Assuming the reports are true, would Kim Jong-Un not be dong the right thing, meaning a military coups would suggest dissatisfaction with is lack of militarism?

Which side would you support between a relatively less militarisitc Kim and a more militaristic military faction ruling the country?
