The North Korean government closely monitors the way its citizens dress, the music they listen to, the videos they watch, and whether or not they dye their hair.
Watching porn in North Korea could cost you your life because Kim Jong Un, the country’s leader, has instructed his new secret police to kill anyone who watches adult content and has banned foreign television, haircuts, and the culture of birthday parties.
It has been decided to take action against “foreign influences.”
The squads are referred to as “gruppa” or “non-socialist groups” in a report. Pyongyang has given them the responsibility of ensuring that no one violates the Communist Party’s official ideology.
According to the report, the North Korean government is using the squads as a “hidden tool” to achieve their “ultimate objectives of ubiquitous surveillance and the ability to thoroughly oversee each and every resident.”
People who watch pornography are executed in North Korea, according to a report from the Database Centre for North Korean Human Rights (NKDB), which is based in Seoul. The testimony said, “… I’ve heard about people being shot for distributing impure cultural contents.” After Kim Jong Un took office, one person was executed for watching porn and prostitution at his place.
According to the report, Kim has been firmly enforcing his noose with gruppa, and watching pornography results in execution by firing squad.
“In North Korea, you can be executed by firing squad or sentenced to a lifetime of “reform through labor” if you consume sexual media content. According to the testimony of another defector, “reform through labor” will result in a sentence of less than ten years if you watch typical American or South Korean content.
Anything “Western” is outlawed in North Korea Foreign media are outright forbidden there. Dissent is severely punished, and everyone in the country has been asked to unquestionably support Kim and his ruling regime.
Kim is said to view South Korea as an “American puppet state,” according to reports. He is also sensitive to anything Western, including its media, out of concern for its potential influence.
According to reports, four students were kicked out of the university earlier this month and forced to work in a coal mine because they sounded like they were watching foreign television shows by using phrases or accents from the South.
Choices being watched closely The North Korean government closely monitors how its citizens dress, the kind of music they listen to, the videos they watch, and whether or not they have dyed their hair.
A witness was quoted in the report as saying, “They keep saying not to have gatherings and drink alcohol because when people are drunk, they will end up singing one or two South Korean songs for sure.”
The report says that distribution and smuggling of South Korean media have been common in the country. On USB flash drives, illegal music, movies, and television shows like “Squid Game” and “Crash Landing on You” are sometimes smuggled into North Korea.
“Non-socialist groups” have used a variety of strategies to prevent people from watching, including cutting off the power to the homes of families who are suspected of watching banned media.
They can be punished by being demoted at work, fired, sent to a reeducation or labor camp, or both.
Defection, drug dealing, smuggling, and beggarry are all criminal offenses in North Korea. They are also being punished for not showing up to work, violating traffic laws, adultery, hair coloring, religious practices, and participating in “decadent culture,” which includes parties.
