    It’s extremely common for citizens of the DPRK to visit, live, and/or work in the PRC. The two countries are on favorable terms. The DPRK and ROK are at war, defectors are treated by both sides as such. The overwhelming majority of cases where it’s claimed that the families of defectors are punished are bullshit tall tales.

    There is no “soviet era brainwashing.” Brains do not get “washed” by information or special beams, people by and large seek out information that supports their world outlook. What you’re doing is ignoring concrete reality to peddle racist views of Koreans with a “get out of jail free card,” and simply use ableist attacks against those providing evidence against your baseless claims.

      Like I said, you’re only fooling yourselves.

        No? We aren’t fooling anyone, you’ve provided no evidence and have been given hard facts disproving you, from the UN to western organizations. You’re dogmatically rejecting material reality because it doesn’t conform to your chauvanist views of Koreans.

            Direct evidence of citizens of the DPRK living and working abroad.

                Do you disagree with the source posted, or are you averting your eyes so you don’t have to see direct refutations of your claims?
