If you get the chance, check out the Vice Travel Guide to NK on YouTube. It's awesome.

I like how Kim gave a round of golf a try and shot a perfect 18.

For a good depiction of life in North Korea, read "The Orphan Masters Son". While fiction, it uses factual things about the tyrannical regime to tell an incredible story.

ETA a link to an article about the tunneling done by the NK army into South Korea.

Theres nothing wrong with kids working in the field. My grandmother is 82. She and all her 11 brothers and sisters worked on our family farm to provide cor themselves.

You should pray to god and thank him that you didnt have to milk cows this morning if these pictures bother you.

That is just a god damn shame. Communism is the most evil ideology on earth.

They aren't taught about earth and sun rotation and seasonal changes. They are taught the leader Kim shakes a branch outside his office to change seasons so the farmers must beg him for good grace to change seasons for crops.

NK maybe a totally impoverished nation but the military is very well armed. Pheasants don't stand a chance fighting with rocks and sticks.

No it isn't. It's the best "theory" on earth. The problem is that humans are greedy and power hungry and true communism has never been once practiced.

Let's just say it's a great theory that leads to unspeakably evil results in reality.

And Americans riot (largely consequence free) because we disagree with the outcome of a free election. Perspective is a good thing.

Looks like he was pulling weeds and using a sack to hold them. I like the way they squat while working.....no crawling like I would.

Eyeopening account of the horrors of living there.

China doesn't want us to liberate North Korea because they'd be inundated with a massive humanitarian crisis.

Millions of dirt poor and malnourished people would flood into their country.

I truly think that's why it hasn't been done.

Also, they have a ton of natural resources and the fight over that would get ugly.
