They actually have a defence industry and supplied quite a bit to the syrian conflict.

I know they do, ya gotta have something for the rest of the peasants to do. They can't all farm. But in all likelihood, they've been building x amount of munitions every year for the last 70 ish years with no real wars to use it. I know that's basically their entire schtick, shelling the ever living shit out of Seoul, + a few nukes to US and/or Japan. But still, I would imagine they have a massively excessive stockpile by now.

I think you underestimate how many people it actually takes to farm with no equipment and no real productive land

I do agree with you tho
