Grigorovich-class for weight reference.
No need for helipad, hangar and helicopter.
DPRK doesn't have Oniks nor Buk missiles.

To protect shipping they need to go gung-ho with missile armament.
72 VLS for Tor-SAM and 24 for S-300PMU SAM range.
48 for Kh-35U and have four AK-630 analogues.

Given the size of available SAM systems and the logic of building the first modern combatant of the nation in question, I'd be looking towards 052 or 051C for reference.
I.e. larger than 1135 derivatives, which are tied to unavailable machinery anyway.

It may be an overkill, but there is no available material to build a multi-purpose frigate. Either a basic one(tor only), or a "disconnected destroyer", or need to rely on export. Which is available, admittedly.

Such a massive amount of weapons would likely be too much for a hull like the Grigorovich's.

I had not seen those uniforms before. New equipment? Kind of strange to see that kind of color scheme in North Korea.
