It seems like their factories make very limited styles of clothing.

There were teenage boys wearing puffer coats, but they were identical and seemed to only come in 3 colors, as well! Also, the authorities making this film seem to have color coded everyone too? Pink for little girls and blue for little boys, and seemingly nothing else. This feels surreal, and is strange and sad...

Fun fact: the waterpark bearing the name "Alpamare" is actually named after the Alpamare in Pfäffikon, canton of Schwyz, the biggest waterpark in Switzerland (source: Daily NK).

Crazy to think about but my grandmother once in her lifetime had a vacation in North Korea when USSR was still present.

The elevator in hotel she stayed at never worked. She asked a Korean worker, who knew Russian well, why elevator was never working. He answered: "We are lacking in electricity, so we turn on the elevator when a check team arrives, and turn it off when a check team leaves". This whole sentence about a single elevator said me everything about North Korea.

Do you know about those who returned to it after fleeing? Do you know about the laws? Have you seen the inhabitants of North Korea yourself? No. Usually, all you know is a runaway fugitive who cries about the fact that her parents were executed in the camp, who, when checked, left with her family, but makes money from tearful books and interviews. Do you know how many channels from Koreans were blocked on KZbin and other platforms*? channels that had videos and photographs of work in the garden, at home, etc. - ordinary everyday ones?

It's also dehumanizing to treat them that they don't have brains just because they have never experienced most of the current pop culture and current events we have the privilege to use and see.
