It's a subject of constant fasination, A perfectly preserved example of fanatic dictatorship and Propaganda, I really wanted to see the place.

I've seen a documentary about this country, when a journalist goes there infiltrated to show some hidden secrets of it.
In my opinion is a very dark, sad, dirty and lonely country, at least that's how it looks in pictures/videos. It's a shame, a part of this planet that should be completely renewed in order to bring happyness to the people...

Well the majority of them seem very happy, any little gratious act from their dear leader (which in fact are provided by international aid) bring them tears.

They are so blinded that most of them don't see what's so sorry about them, some of them won't even know, that's a strange kind of happiness if you ask me. Definitely twisted in some way, but I am afraid if one day north korea is liberated by an democratic party, people will turn suicidal because their dear leader is no more.

It's extra scary when most of them are taught that their dear leader is a son of the gods. That's even worse than it was in east germany.

btw this cracks me up:

Gordon Freeman beats you up the stairs! (or shoe repair upstairs in north korea)

Exactly. According to what I saw, they try to look happy to the few foreigners that go there, when they actualy aren't.
I have no idea what the best solution for them is, but for me the situation there is completely unacceptable
Anyway, is not the only unacceptable country in the world

Quite old pics from what I remember, always fascinating to see though.

I think they've finished that pyramid hotel now... at last.

"A NK beach, electrified barbed-wire so the NK citiziens wouln't swim away, of couse you're not allowed to take that picture."
