Who is funding all of this, at the end of the day? China?

Hmm, 500 million is a lot but it is only 500 million. Unclear how they can finance what is already there, pay for food and schools, a nuclear weapons program, a relatively giant military with ridiculously long military training, etc, and on top of that build a whole new city out of nothing. At the end of the day China would rather not have NK collapse on itself, and I think it's pretty clear they've been extending a generous helping hand over the last few decades.
