Why does north Korea need food aid?
North Korea since its incarnation after the Korean War has adopted a policy of Juche (Self Reliance). North Korea tries to be completely self reliant on its own resources and capabilities for its survival.
Sadly this ideology is very impractical for a country such as North Korea. For one North Korea has a very limited amount of arable land and is not nearly enough to meet its food demands. Second, constant flooding and droughts have crippled North Korea's already pitiful harvests. Third, the Army and members of the Korean Workers Party take presidence over its every day citizens who need food the most.
Although millions of dollars worth of food AID is given to North Korea its people still suffer because that food aid is immediately diverted to the military and members of the Korean Workers Party. Normally aid agencies are allowed into a country to distribute the aid but because of North Korea's strict government that is not allowed.

Why do Koreans eat spicey food?
People who eat spicy foods are usually from a warmer climate like Korea. In warm climate, food tends to spoil quickly, and so it is traditionally more heavily spiced, both to keep it preserved longer and to hide the taste of the spoilage. Each warm-climate culture develops its own combination of favorite spices.
