How bad the propaganda is over there?
Maybe it's just typical American propaganda against North Korea because it's communist.

Yeah I'm sure it's hell to live over there, oh but I'm sure it's been over exaggerated a hundred times.

Not at all.
The propaganda would be like if there was monuments all over America of the President, and you would go to them and give thanks and offerings. Kids would learn in school about how amazing the president is. How he is the reason for you being there. And if you dont like it, they ship you off to work camps.
The place is the real life version of George Orwell's 1984

Serious question. Do N Koreans have free thought? Like do they think "I hate this Kim Dick and all his family" or are most of them brainwashed so much that anyone who speaks ill of their leader/country would be turned in.

They have been doing awful experiments to their own people and killing them. I've watched quite a few documentaries of North Korea and the few who escaped. It's quite tragic to see and hear the kind of world they live in. Seeing thier faces and knowing how they could be happy normal people if they can make it to south korea.

Vice: inside North Korea documentary is a good one to watch first imo. Also a State of mind, and north Korea Prisons too.

I remember seeing how they went to a tea shop, and the lady that was there was waiting for someone, anyone, to come to the shop to buy something, or just visit. She looked extremely happy to see someone for the first time in what could possibly have been months. It's horrible to think that joy that she felt would only be short-lived, and she'd possibly have to spent many more months alone, just waiting for the next person to come visit.


OMG the tea girl =(

I wanted to save her from that awful place. it's just so sad what her life is and if she got out how much better it could be.

I've heard some citizens are so impoverished they have to boil and eat tree bark just to survive.

I'm in love with Jesus and proud of it!

Kim convinced his people that he invented the cheesburger.

Kim supposedly beat a world record golf score his first time playing.

Kim was obsessed with John Wayne and collected all of his movies.

After hearing on the radio that NK people were having to eat their own babies and were selling them on the black market, I went and Googled it. Sure enough, I found several articles with pics to prove it.

They call me graland.

The worst things I've read weren't rumours; they were the stories of a guy who had grown up in a concentration camp for political prisoners.

Yes NK defiantly isn't doing very well. I also watched a documentary a long time ago about this disease that was spreading through NK (it makes you blind, I believe) and the country as a whole lacked the proper supplies to treat any of these people. So health care is obviously bad

So, you want to hear a story eh? One about treasure hunters? Have I got a story for you!

I heard that SK has better internet than NK.

Seoul (CNN) -- Is she or isn't she? Pregnancy rumors and speculation are swirling around the world but the lady in question is saying nothing.
This could easily be about a Hollywood star but this time, we're talking about the world's most reclusive nation, North Korea, and its first lady.
Ri Sol Ju, the wife of young leader Kim Jong Un, has not been seen in public for around two months, according to North Korea watchers. A photo released by the state-run news agency KCNA shows her back in public and wearing a long coat that could be hiding a bump. Ri watched a football match and attended a musical concert with her husband Monday to mark the 60th anniversary of the Kim Il Sung Military University.

Kim Jong Un marries mystery woman Sushi chef's North Korean drama
South Korean media has kicked into overdrive to speculate on whether she is pregnant or whether she was kept out of the public eye as a disciplinary measure for a perceived slight. Local media has claimed she may have fallen out of favor for not wearing a lapel pin of the former leaders, a requirement for adult North Koreans.
"Rumors first came out from officials who attended the same event," said Kim Yong-hoon, head of the North Korean desk at Daily NK, an online newspaper based in Seoul that focuses on North Korea. "They started questioning and speculating if she was pregnant and it has spread throughout the country and that's how we heard about the rumors."
Kim says the interest in whether Ri is pregnant is far higher outside of North Korea than it is inside, according to his sources inside the isolated nation.

John Delury, assistant professor at Yonsei University says this global interest speaks volumes about the way any news about North Korea is handled.
"Do we track the last time Michelle Obama showed up?" Delury says. "Our minds are so trained to do this with North Korea that we miss the bigger picture which is there is something new --and by almost international standards we could say more normal -- about the way she appears in public."
By announcing Ri Sol Ju as his wife and having her accompany him on many public engagements, Kim Jong Un has shown a personality very different to his late father, Kim Jong Il.
While producing a son and heir for a dynastic regime is considered very important, Delury points out "that's also true for the families of the 'chaebol' or business conglomerates of South Korea, for Hyundai and Samsung," he says. "Even in the U.S. and UK, powerful families are concerned about producing the next generation."

They're brainwashed to hell!

This was posted here a couple weeks ago. But this shows how insanely brainwashed they are. Anyone who does think that is either shipped off to a work camp, or tries to escapes to the South.

Half of the buildings in their capital city don't have power or running water, yet North Koreans believe they are the greatest nation on Earth. They literally have no idea what the developed world is like.
