Push the bus
Most of the buses in North Korea are old and outdated but I guess they never break down, or do they? This picture of soldiers pushing a broken down bus is not allowed, because the regime doesn’t approve pictures of anything broken.
Wouldn’t it be nice to live in a world where everything worked all the time?
Not from behind
Another strange story of an illegal picture.
This picture is not allowed because although it is ok to take pictures of statues, it is illegal to take pictures of statues from behind. Please look away from the back of the statue.
The Kimjongilia Festival
All North Koreans are required to attend the Kimjongilia Festival.
This yearly event takes place on the birthday of their former leader Kim Jong Il with a special flower which was named after him. The festival includes flower shows, a military parade and a large dance party.
Rundown buildings
In North Korea, image is everything and therefore they focus their energies on maintaining the exterior of buildings.
However, due to lack of resources and reliable contractors, some buildings begin to look rundown.
No brooms
This worker must have been extremely distracted because he left a broom next to this statue.
This picture is banned because brooms are not allowed at the bottom of any statues.
