It's not impossible. But it is a stretch.

How would a member of Kim Court know where to find hackers?

I'm not sure what percentage of people here know where to find those kinds of hackers, and we're supposed to be IT experts.

So the idea that some underling in the world's one surviving Stalinist state, which happens to have barely any Internet, knows where to hang out on DarkNet, and also has a suitably impressive stash of BitCoins, and knows enough about corporate politics to understand how to cause Sony Pix maximum humiliation - all that sounds just slightly unlikely, no?

China? Maybe. Russia? Possibly. 4Chan and/or LulzSec? Uh huh.

But North Korea? Possibly not.
