"you got pictures of his underground place ???"

On 25 June 1999 the US Government Report on the US Visit to the Site at Kumchang-ni concluded that excavation of the complex, as currently configured, was almost complete but a great deal of additional finishing work remained to be done with almost all of the tunnels still bare rock. Given the current size and configuration of the underground area, the Report found that the site is unsuitable for the installation of a plutonium production reactor, especially a graphite-moderated reactor of the type North Korea has built at Yongbyon. The site is also not well designed for a reprocessing plant. The US government concluded that the site at Kumchang-ni does not contain a plutonium production reactor or a reprocessing plant either completed or under construction. Given the current size and configuration of the underground area, the site is unsuitable for the installation of a plutonium production reactor - especially a graphite moderated reactor of the type North Korea has built at Yongbyon. The site is also not well designed for a reprocessing plant. Nevertheless, since the site is a large underground area, it could support such a facility in the future with substantial modifications.

So if the underground facility is being used for plutonium production, that happened on Bush's watch. Much more likely they used the above ground facility that was already built. Either way, Bush screwed the pooch with respect to the North Koreans.
