It is understandable that claims of having very long range ICBMs are met with suspicion of exaggerations.

At the same time, it is nothing new that "leaked" info on happenings in NK has occationally been fabricated in the south. Something to bear in mind.
If they have the ability to reach low earth orbit - they have the ICBM technology.

That ability can be independently verified by observing the space launches and their payloads in orbit.

If memory serves me right there were 2 such launches in the past.

Those two launches prove that DPRK has ICBM technology. As I have said that technology is nothing surprising, USSR and USA got it in 50s/60s. Any dedicated actor, especially if such actor has resources to procure 60s missile tech (ie R27 series SLBMs) is capable of doing it.
