    The DPRK is by no means perfect, but it’s also not some hermit kingdom where the peasants push trains to make them move.

    If you have 20 minutes, I recommend you watch We Went to North Korea to Get a Haircut, it’s humanizing and helps dispel a lot of modern myths about the DPRK. Again, it’s by no means perfect, but the West has absolutely mythologized its existence to lunacy.
