That's fair, but surely people understand that N. Korea is perhaps the most sanctioned country in the world. As in, N. Korea and pretty much every other country in the world agree on perhaps only one thing, that N. Koreans should stay in N. Korea.

Most North Koreans are exploited and abused, and if they manage to get out on their own (since other countries dont care enough about human rights to try and actively help them to get out), they should be absolutely accepted and helped as much as possible to integrate into another country.
? I live in "North" America, and I have no problem with that...
I'm not saying North Korean people are bad, I'm saying there's a lot of sanctions that prevent North Koreans from being accepted in most of the world. This results in a large share of the North Koreans outside of North Korea being government plants, like this story about a North Korean getting hired by a security company. Legal emigration just isn't a thing from North Korea, and hasn't been for decades, except for a small handful of countries (Russia, China, and a few others).
I feel really bad for the average North Korean citizen, but that doesn't change the statistics. If you meet someone who is Korean pretty much anywhere outside of China or Russia, there's almost zero chance they're from North Korea. That's the statistics, and it's due to a mix of N. Korean policy, international resolutions, and policies of various countries.

I absolutely agree. I'm just saying that both N. Korea and other countries prefer them to stay in N. Korea. And there are good reasons for that:
But I absolutely believe countries should make an effort to take them in, I'm just saying that's not the current political climate.
this person thinks "North" is a swear word

It was a joke. You used the abbreviation "N." every time.
Ah, got it. I'm just kinda lazy sometimes. :)
Sorry for the confusion. Not a very good joke I guess ๐
