It would be good if alt media were to grow up in sophistication, breadth of perception, everything.
For all that we are on the 'right' side: i.e. we realise that usa is hopelessly corrupt, as is Kiev as is Tel Avid and everything from covid to 9/11 is a lie - we still operate on a shallow, naive and insubstantial level.
We are not helping much, we are not revealing much, we are not trying very hard.
I wouldn't be surprised if western media reported that Russia is bringing in a martian army from a very distant planet to help them defeat the mighty Ukrainian freedom fighters.
South Korea intelligence agencies do have their secret sources. However, their records are not perfect, even about North Korea. We merely have to reason on the possibilities. North Koreans stationed in Russia would eat Russia food (big issue in NK), paid by Russians either as factory crew, construction/clearing crews (note the mines) or even near combat zones (constructing new defense work at newly acquired lands). They would be eating better than working inside NK and earning foreign exchange for NK. I had the impression that at the start of SMO, there had been rumors of a large number of North Koreans to work in Siberia, from factories to fortress, to replace able-bodied men there. This gives Russian leaders an option to not mobilize the two largest metropolitan areas in Russia. In comparison, China's northeast, usually called Manchuria by westerners, had seen persistent population flow south since early 1980 when China's coastal areas started to see booming consumer industry productions. Chinese government would have a hard time to recruit workers to work in Siberia. China's contributions to SMO are likely in machine tools, NC milling/drilling machines, subassemblies, personal equipment and clothing. It is better not to trust China on military rations.
As for special forces and giving some officers experiences in live fire, it is a given. A front-line reporter does not gain as much insight into real war because they are usually holding guns and being shot at, let alone getting involved in a firefight. But no training is more realistic than a real fight. The same can be said about the special forces from all Western countries. I think SF from SK and Japan are also there. Even Taiwan may have sent in people to learn drone operations in real life. If they don't do so, it would be an outright dereliction of duty for any top military leaders in these countries (both camps).

The reason for the reports is to furnish an excuse for NATO escalation.
