Hm, isn't it precipitate to talk about "perestroika"?

Yeah, it is, but we all see it coming, it's just the matter of when.

It's quite optimistic to talk about perestroika in NK. Gorbachev started that process in the USSR because he was convinced that the system direly needed reforms, it is very unlikely that the regime in Pyongyang has reached this level of self-reflection and insight.
