Exactly as it says on the tin. At any POD in time, propose a way in which, to compete against the South Koreans, North Korea sends a man into space with a life support system that doesn't fail immediately.

With there Hardware , just a lot of dead cosmonauts.

I don't think this is so hard, actually. A manned space program doesn't necessarily entail an independent space program. Keep NK firmly in the Russian or Chinese sphere and prevent its Juche/Seongun deformation, and they might well hitch a ride on a program like Interkosmos (or a later/future Chinese analogue), which OTL carried 11 Eastern bloc cosmonauts on Soyuz missions.
With there Hardware , just sub orbital flight.
Errr... Just because Cuba sent a cosmonaut on an Intercosmos flight doesn't mean Cuba has a 'manned space program'.
So North Korea wouldn't be any different that way.
