      We saw about as much of him as we saw of the Russian detector in season 2, so this is probably setup for his character in season 4. I'm guessing he'll return to Earth with the combined American/Soviet/Helios crew, but it's possible North Korea sends him back to Mars afterwards or he insists on staying behind to protect his landing site or something like that.

    For the Koreans, it was a one-way ticket, that's for sure. This is a Soyuz descent vehicle with an inflatable airlock similar to the block of the Vostok spacecraft (in the universe of the series - rather outdated technologies, purchased or stolen from the USSR). They landed, but would never take off again; the Soyuz lander is not designed for this.
    They were given pistols simply to shoot themselves when food and oxygen ran out. Well, so as not to die in agony.
    But the fact is that Lieutenant Colonel Lee Jong Gil was the first man on Mars.
    End justifies the means.

      So obviously season 4 has came through and no appearance of china yet in any major scale. The reason why there is a lack of China in the show is likely due to Apple's guidelines on how they want to have China portrayed as a nation, as it would potentially do harm to their Chinese market if they portrayed China as a space adversary, hence no china in the show and the likelyhood on why they went with North Korea instead.

    It takes far less fuel to land on Mars than it does to land on the Moon. It's only slightly more fuel to get to Mars, but you get a free aerocapture and aerodynamic reentry. The moon requires rocket power to get a captured orbit, then rockets to land.
    A one way mission to Mars is super easy compared to landing on the moon, especially returning from the moon.
