3 prediction markets price this story:

• North Korea — the market puts it at 7%, with $491 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 1 Jan 2027. The outcome is Yes if Donald Trump physically travels to and stays within North Korea's borders between now and January 1, 2027. Otherwise, the outcome is No. Readers often mistake the linked news story about a missile test for a visit, but only his physical presence counts.
• Yes — the market puts it at 44%, closing 1 Jul 2030. The market resolves to Yes if President Lee Jae-myung completes his full term ending on June 3, 2030. It resolves to No if he leaves office before that date for any reason. Readers often mistake the linked news story about AI hacks as the resolution criteria instead of the president's actual tenure.
• Kim Jong Un out as Supreme Leader of North Korea by December 31, 2026? — the market puts it at 5%, with $29k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 1 Jan 2027. The market resolves to Yes if Kim Jong Un stops being Supreme Leader at any point before December 31, 2026, including through resignation, removal, detention, or permanent inability to perform his duties. A public announcement of his departure before the deadline triggers an immediate Yes resolution, even if the change takes effect later.
