That's where the apocalyptical Jesus cries out loud and clear ; to the downcast, persecuted, suffering, and hopeless
North Koreans, just like in China today, I've read, where people have little or no hope, the idea that Jesus will return, ring in the kingdom of God, and end all hunger, disease, and suffering, has very strong and successful appeal. I've read hordes in China are flocking to groups and movements preaching the end times.
What's sad is that grifters and con artists see the end times as an opportunity to get rich, off those that are just looking for hope.
That's enough to turn any sober minded person off to end times preaching. Harold Camping comes to mind ($95 million). And Jim Bakker, with his $1500.00 End Time Survival Food Buckets.
