Some rare photographs from a journalist in north Korea from 2008. All make for unusual viewing material. Ive always found the situation in north korea bizarre, like a land time almost forgot and its lagging behind, like its the 1950's there and the 21st century everywhere else. I remember on bam margeras radio show, when i still listened to it, they mentioned they stopped there during the gumball rally and the people had no idea what he was doing on some bizarre contraption. but it wasnt a lamborgini, it was a skateboard. I posted those pictures a while back of a north korea arcade and they were truly bizarre in comparison to how we have it over here.
I learnt a lot when i studied the north and south korean film differences during a coursework at university and this situation always seemed like a bizarre what if? like what if england and scotland didnt cease hostilities and became truly separate instead of part of a united kingdom? or the north and the south in the american civil war?
-One thing that sticks in them photos, if kim jong-il cant see the person, they aint smilin'
