I recently learned you cannot express support for NK in SK without a penalty/legal issues. And despite all their Western money (but because of Western influence) they're a country of plastic, superficial, hedonistic, depressed, aimless and collectively suicidal (birth rate wise) people. Jeez. It's gonna be interesting to see the eventual reunification.

collectively suicidal (birth rate wise)

Regular wise too, they have one of the highest suicide rates

Yep! The woman who made the documentary My Brothers and Sisters in the North, humanizing people in the DPRK, was stripped of her ROK citizenship despite popular critical approval of the documentary (from those who saw it).

wikipedia says that she chose to give up her south korean citizenship. lol

[-] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 10 points 1 day ago

She had to do so in order to film the documentary.
