Look ,personally I want this to be perfect ,to include every single detail not mentioned about the DPRK in the west ,also no I’m not gonna tell you how I have contact with a DPRK diplomat ,please ask sincere questions and remember this is a DPRK diplomat, not a citizen so there is stuff that they can’t answer and stuff that they aren’t allowed to answer

If my friend from the DPRK replies ,I will update you but this is for someone else ,I’ve acquired a lot of important info on the DPRK that I want to share with all of you and this is so that it could be perfect ,please ask good questions

    Well this is a diplomat/official ,not a normal person ,they are a normal person but their job is to be on the internet and while I don’t know ,I think there’s more North Korean than we think on the internet

    From what I know ,their life is more like people in the 50’s in America and other places in the world ,they have movies (Soviet movies) and their own cinema ,they have their own comic books named “Kurimchaek“ ,they have literature ,they go out to the park ,beach etc

    Tbh their life is like people in the USSR , they have movies ,comics ,nice places to go to ,free housing (even for foreigners who are staying there 😭)

    But I think they don’t have social media ,my friend Zuhair ,the one who introduced me to the North Korean in China ,Zuhair told me that Kye (that North Korean) was not used to social media

    I don’t know if they have video games or can read manga form Japan because Japan is a country they deeply despise they do have their own comics

      I don’t know how much you keep up with it, but America banned Tiktok for a couple hours. It made the alternative Chinese social media, Xiaohongshu, the #1 app in the app store. Because we’re talking about America, the class consciousness is small at best, but there was a little bit of solidarity and comradery shared between American citizens and Chinese citizens.

      I just think, wish, and hope that there’s be some intersection of media consumption between America, China, and North Korea. If we all thought Spongebob memes were funny or we all thought Chinese dragons were awesome that would mean something to me. We would feel that solidarity and comradery extend somewhere that the American government deeply despises.
