Right after the Atomic bomb was dropped on Japan in August 1945, the Soviet Union (Russia) declared war on Japan, and invaded Japanese conquered territory, of which Korea was one. After WWII, the Soviets took North Korea and the US (free world) took South Korea. Five years later, the Soviets supplied North Korea and supported them in their efforts to re-take their southern cousin, during the Korean War 1950-1953. Which they failed to do.

North Korea, Iran and Cuba
It depends on how the question is being asked. If it is asking whether or not Israel supports North Korea as it currently stands with a Communist government or agrees with North Korea's claim to the entire peninsula, the answer is No. The two countries do not recognize each other. Israel actually supports South Korea and its claim to the entire peninsula. Israeli politicians have called North Korea part of the Axis of Evil and have noted North Korea's assistance to Arab countries opposed to Israel's interests. If it is asking what Israel's perspective is on whether North Korea should be Communist or some other regime-type, Israel never issued any formal statement describing what kind of government North Korea should have or should not have. Israel has only ever asked that North Korea be less belligerent.
There is no country in the world that has the kind of autarkic, state-run economy and shadow economy as North Korea, but the "country" that would come the closest would be Hamas-controlled Gaza.
