North Korea executed 30 teenagers for watching South Korean dramas!

30 middle schoolers....That is worse than Iran and the youth they are putting to death for defending girls showing their hair. I mean seriously it's not the kid's fault someone on the outside tempted them. 🙄

Welcome to hell, welcome to crazyland, welcome to North Korea:

From Business Insider:

In North Korea, watching your favorite Korean dramas could end in tragedy.

According to reports from South Korean news outlets Chosun TV and Korea JoongAng Daily, around 30 middle schoolers were publicly shot last week for watching South Korean dramas.

The shows were reportedly stored on USBs that were floated over the border by North Korean defectors.

Business Insider was unable to independently verify the report.

South Korean officials did not comment directly on the report, but according to Korea JoongAng Daily, one unnamed South Korean Unification Ministry official told reporters that "it is widely known that North Korean authorities strictly control and harshly punish residents based on the three so-called 'evil' laws."

One of these is North Korea's Reactionary Ideology and Culture Rejection Act, which forbids individuals from disseminating media that originates in South Korea, the US, or Japan.

It is unclear whether those restrictions apply to foreigners visiting the country, like the Russian schoolchildren preparing to attend summer camps in the country.

Greg Scarlatoiu, the executive director of the Committee for Human Rights in North Korea, told BI that "under the circumstances created by the intensified crackdown on information from the outside world, initially conducted under the pretext of COVID, these reports are definitely plausible."

This is not the first instance of North Koreans reportedly being killed for their association with content from their southern neighbor.

According to a 2022 UN Secretary-General report, a man in Kangwon Province was killed by a public firing squad after his neighborhood watch unit saw him selling digital content from South Korea.

A 2024 report on North Korean Human Rights,released by South Korea's Ministry of Unification, claimed that phones in North Korea are regularly checked for "South Korean-style language" and that wearing white wedding dresses is punished for being "reactionary".

A video was released earlier this year showing two teenagers being sentenced to 12 years of hard labor for watching a K-pop video.

Despite eyewitness accounts compiled by Amnesty International, the North Korean government has denied that public executions take place in the country.

According to North Korean authorities, the last execution took place in 1992.

North Korea is still technically at war with its southern counterpart, with their conflict in the 1950s ending in a truce rather than a peace treaty.

A defector told the Korea Herald that in 2020, North Korean parents were forced to sign a pledge stating they would ensure their children do not watch "impure video content" at home.

Recently, experts have speculated that North Korean military personnel could be sent to aid Russian efforts in Ukraine, following closer tiesbetween North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and Russia's President Vladimir Putin.

Representatives from North Korea didn't immediately reply to requests for comment.”

That's a fucked up society. No wonder why they dont want any western influence inside the country. Then people would know what freedom is, and that's very bad for communism.

It’s worse than that dude, they don’t want ANY influence in their country, west or east. All things come from the leader. Scary shit.

Simple solution : get rid of that fat ugly fuck who they call their Supreme Leader, hand him over to ISIS or Mexican Cartel and have him beheaded, problem solved.

I would be for removing that regime with force but we don’t know if they would be crazy enough to destroy Seoul, which is right across the border, and that would be just too high a price for everyone. Even if we evacuated the city first, Can you imagine thousands of artillery pieces firing on that city with all those skyscraper. It would be like 9/11 times a thousands. Their economy would come to a hault and they are one of the most important economies in a world. It’s really a hostage situation on a country to countrywide scale it’s madness.

middle schoolers is crazy. were they even aware of it being south korean considering all them asian fucks look the same?

Yes of course because you can’t just buy usbs with movies on them. Thats not allowed. No culture except what the state wants you to see.

Why haven't we assassinated that dipshit yet? The entire world deserves to live free, and any individual or political system that denies that right should be dismantled, forcibly if necessary.

See my other message and you’ll see why, also we couldn’t get close enough to passionate him, it’s too closed a society and too insular and too cruel and brutal. The motherfucker killed his own uncle for fucks sake.

None of my business. Measure from the Taint.

Except it is because I don’t know if you’ve noticed but we have a big stake in that country militarily and economically. Stop being so narrow minded.

There's no resources worth having in North Korea.

There's no resources worth having in North Korea.

What does that have to do with removing a tyrannical despot from power?

 

[Captain Cockwash]

What does that have to do with removing a tyrannical despot from power?

Because the powers that be will only ever act against tyrants when there is something to be gained i.e natural resources for their corporate power brokers.

I gotta disagree with that. We have the technology to take him out from hundreds of miles away. We have micro-missiles (essentially smart-bullets) that can be locked onto a target twenty miles away and can hit with needle-point precision.

The physical capability of assassinating him is unquestionably simple, affordable and quick.

I want to know why -politically speaking- we haven't done so already? Would the Koreans even accept Democracy to begin with?

30 more happy meals for our benevolent leader Kim!

Your logic is flawed, North Korea is naturally abundant in metals such as magnesite, zinc, tungsten, and iron; with magnesite resources of 6 billion tons (second largest in the world), particularly in the North and South Hamgyong Province and Chagang Province.

North Korea has reserves of more than 200 mineral types distributed over 80% of its territory with ten reserves recording large deposits of magnetite, tungsten ore, graphite, gold, and molybdenum. Among the largest resources high estimated reserve are: 21 million tons of zinc; non-metallic resource of 100 billion tons of limestone and 6 billion tons of magnesite; and other mineral sources such as 5 billion tons of iron, 5 billion tons of anthracite, 3 million tons of copper, 2 million tons of barite, 2 million tons of graphite, and 2 thousand tons of gold.

Estimates from experts who have never set foot in the backwards hellhole excuse for a nation don't mean all that much.

 

[D.O.A.]

I feel North Korea is akin to a 13th century absolute monarchy. We may call it a communist dictatorship but I think it's simply a feudal state with a population of serfs and a very small ruling class of elites, a "royal cort" if you will. And with absolute power under the excuse of devine right, Kim Jung Un can say "off with his head!" like a king for any minor infraction. And these close circle of elites do it for him. The communist ideals of Marx and Lenin are just as removed from modern North Korea as capitalism is. If China didn't use them as a buffer zone between the South Koreans (and American forces stationed there) then all the world would have agreed long ago to destroy this pathetic prison country.

This is what will happen if Trump wins the election. If you get caught watching will & grace you'll be shot with an anti-aircraft gun

Indeed. I was just if reading about North Korea yesterday and their sole guiding “philosophy” which is Juche, you might have heard of it. It reads more like Japanese facism or ultranationalist or a quasi religion then it does Marxism-Leninism. For example check out their bill of rights:

Ten Principles for the Establishment of a Monolithic Ideological System​

1. We must give our all in the struggle to unify the entire society with the revolutionary ideology of the Great Leader Kim Il Sung.
2. We must honor the Great Leader comrade Kim Il Sung with all our loyalty.
3. We must make absolute the authority of the Great Leader comrade Kim Il Sung.
4. We must make the Great Leader comrade Kim Il Sung's revolutionary ideology our faith and make his instructions our creed.
5. We must adhere strictly to the principle of unconditional obedience in carrying out the Great Leader comrade Kim Il Sung's instructions.
6. We must strengthen the entire party's ideology and willpower and revolutionary unity, centering on the Great Leader comrade Kim Il Sung.
7. We must learn from the Great Leader comrade Kim Il Sung and adopt the communist look, revolutionary work methods and people-oriented work style.
8. We must value the political life we were given by the Great Leader comrade Kim Il Sung, and loyally repay his great political trust and thoughtfulness with heightened political awareness and skill.
9. We must establish strong organizational regulations so that the entire party, nation and military move as one under the one and only leadership of the Great Leader comrade Kim Il Sung.
10. We must pass down the great achievement of the revolution by the Great Leader comrade Kim Il Sung from generation to generation, inheriting and completing it to the end.

And if you read the Juche wiki you will see it’s about the leader, race and nation, that’s not communist.

I can see why Trump likes that guy...and probably would like to emulate him in the States, because Trump is great too, and might wipe out the US constitution and recreate America into him: Trumperica.

This stuff on Great Leader comrade Kim (Trump would love to be called that, Great Leader comrade Donald, hmm, not the same ring to that), though not surprising - his father had the entire nation believe he had no anus and therefore was a god. I guess he shit out of his mouth, like his fat-headed son-boi.

 

[Christopher Hitchens]

There's no resources worth having in North Korea.

No that’s not why, it’s the reasons I said. South Korea as far as I know doesn’t have natural resources, I could be wrong about that but I’m pretty sure they have little to none.

Because the powers that be will only ever act against tyrants when there is something to be gained i.e natural resources for their corporate power brokers.

Provable false. See the Afghanistan Or Bosnia Or Kosovo interventions.

This actually caught my attention because if you look at sects such as Peoples Temple, Heavens Gate or Aum Shinrikyo, they all revolved around a cult of personality, absolute loyalty, suppression of any form of dissent (aka watching south korean movies), and ideological purity. And all of them ended in mass murder and suicide.

Indeed and I highly recommend checking this wiki article out. It’s about Juche which is the state ideology/quasi-religion as a whole and it’s horrifyingly interesting stuff:

Juche - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

To add to what you mention, miracles are a huge part of the ideology. They teach their citizens that when Kim Il-sung was born all the birds of Korea sang in Korea.

Equally insane, if not more. Kim Il-sung, the original leader who’s been dead for decades, Is still the president of North Korea! His title is, I believe, the Eternal President. I mean my god, calling it a quasi religion is not off base with that kinda cuckoo stuff.

I hope the slaves of NK are freed in my lifetime. See human emancipation on that scale would be beautiful.

imagine if MS13 or any other big gang invaded N.Korea? how much fun would that be to watch! i know theyd stick out like sore thumbs,but still...

Yea, they would most certainly I think not take the capital but they could have a guerrilla force and all they’d have to do to get alot of population on their side, meaning not obstruct their military activities or even joining their ranks, is to feed them, cuz their evil government wont even do that.
