Like there’s literally no point at all in talking to these people who believe Kim Jong Un strapped a man to a rocket and blasted him into space and murdered his family. You can show them shit written by westerners debunking everything and they’ll shrug and say “ok but North Korea is still bad.” Tell them that North Koreans are subhumans in South Korea and they’ll shrug and roll their eyes. “How can they be discriminated? They’re Koreans!” Then immediately assume they’re a sinister spy when they decide to go back home.
I don’t go out of my way to defend North Korea but my god. These people make me sound like I’m an adherent of Juche because they simply cannot fathom that perhaps they’re being lied to.
Check out We Went To North Korea To Get A Haircut and My Brothers and Sisters in the North. Fascinating stuff.
here's an album i put together a while ago with almost 400 pictures from the dprk (organized by cities)

SASUKE! Thank you.
Loyal Citizens of Pyongyang in Seoul is another great documentary (it's from PSL) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BkUMZS-ZegM
I'll check that out, thank you.
There's also the Proles pod episode where they interview rapper Xiangyu about his two trips to the DPRK, good stuff.
Adding to the list, thanks.
