By "a period in the nineties", you mean "since the nineties", right? So basically for the past 35 years North Korea has been heavily lagging in life expectancy.

Another way to put that is it's been 75 years since Korea split, and half that time North Korea has been much worse than south Korea.

Let's not even get into what that chart would look like if humanitarian aid wasn't shipped during those famines.
