By "Successful" I meant successfully implemented, not good for the people. What happened in countries like China is that at a certain point, the leaders have realized that if they stay by the book, their country would collapse in famine and backwardness. So a few of them (luckily) said: screw Marx, Lenin, Mao and the rest, let's allow people to get rich, but we keep political power and this would also bring us financial power.
Noth Korea however has achieved what all communist leaders have wanted: the complete subordination if the individual to the state.
