Much like the "uhygur genocide", when nobody goes for it, they can't admit it was a lie. Just that things are different than they said.

The Ukrainians have said a few things:

An interview with a POW whose Korean is non-standard: https://www.reddit.com/r/UkraineRussiaReport/comments/1hzt6sz/ua_pov_president_zelensky_published_an_interview/

[cw: dead body] A photoshopped passport: https://www.reddit.com/r/UkraineRussiaReport/comments/1gi7fhj/ru_pov_first_north_korean_captured_is_a_fake/

A zoomed out video shot through a fence of soldiers running: https://www.reddit.com/r/UkraineRussiaReport/comments/1g6e3tc/ua_pov_soldiers_from_north_korea_at_one_of_the/

Otherwise there isn't evidence because the ontologically sneaky Russians are going onto the battlefield with cans of petrol and manually burning the faces off every dead North Korean soldier. We also don't have evidence of that.

There was also the totally unbiased and completely trustworthy South Korean intelligence agency claiming they totally have proof but ~~she goes to a different school~~ they can't show it to you sadly

Russia admitted they had DPRK troops in their country for joint training exercises. This is proof of nothing. I wouldn't even be shocked if they went to the front to learn a bit about modern tactics but I can guarantee they haven't fought outside of internationally recognized Russian territory (Kursk) IF at all. Most likely they just gave them briefings and training on modern warfare tactics which they'll take back to the DPRK.

That's where the middle ground truth of it lays for me. There's probably some kind of smallish detachment of observers, but neither Russia nor North Korea would benefit from having them as general infantry or within Ukrainian drone range.
