While the prototypes have 7 pairs of wheels?

The front one might be hidden by the tracks.

Oh, you right :3

4-men crew, so the vehicle does not have an autoloader

Not surprising. The gun seems to use the same caliber as the T-62.
The tank chassis, which is the hardest part, seems to be all new. But I suspect the turret uses a lot of T-62 technology.

You clearly are not informed on subject and instead of not commenting anything you make bold assertions that are obviously wrong.

Seems to be 125mm since songun-ho.

They never had autoloader ever on their tanks.

That makes little sense since Soviet 125mm uses two part ammunition. If you also use a manual loader it is going to have a really slow reload speed. Soviet 115mm is single piece ammunition.

Of course making assumptions is wrong. But based on the state of technology within North Korea, and their tanks currently, it's very reasonable to deduce that they've incorporated technologies based on their T-62s or Chonmahos.

Indeed, it goes without saying that we shouldn't underestimate North Korea's equipment.
