North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un seems to be very upset these days due to the fear of rebellion. Pop music from neighboring South Korea has taken away their sleepless nights and daytime rest. Disturbed by this, dictator Kim Jong Un has openly threatened the fans of K-pop. He said that K-pop is dangerous like cancer. If someone in North Korea is caught listening to this or watching the drama of South Korea, then he will be imprisoned for 15 years in the labor camp.
Kim Jong Un calls K-pop music a 'dangerous cancer'. The dictator said that K-pop is dangerous cancer, which is ruining the youth of North Korea. Their gestures, living habits, clothes, and hairstyles are all changing. If this continues, North Korea will collapse like a wet wall.
15 years in prison for listening to 'K-pop' Kim Jong-un said in his decree that South Korea's music, TV serials, and films are corrupting the dress, hairstyle, language, and behavior of the youth of our country. In December itself, a related law was introduced, in which watching any South Korean entertainment can be punished with 15 years in a labor camp. Earlier this maximum punishment was only 5 years. Not only this, there is a provision for the death penalty if caught, people involved in smuggling pen drives of entertainment material related to South Korea.
What is K-pop? Korean pop of South Korea is colloquially known as K-pop. Based mainly on Western music, K-pop has now found many dance moves and music styles. Because of this, this pop music of South Korea will get fans all over the world.
K-pop fans all over the world South Korean music, TV shows, and movies are popular all over the world. This includes North Korea buried under the burden of dictatorship. North Korean people also like K-pop very much due to the similarity in language, food, and culture, etc. The government decides the cultural life of the people in North Korea. That is why Kim Jong Un has issued this threatening order seeing the growing South Korean culture in North Korea.
How does entertainment content reach North Korea? The means of entertainment in North Korea are extremely limited. The dictator also decides what to see and listen to the people in North Korea. Censorship of the media and the Internet in North Korea has led people to smuggle them out of South Korea for entertainment. This is the reason why music, movies, and TV serials are smuggled across the border from South Korea through storage devices like VCRs, CDs, DVDs for the past several decades. After the stricture on the border, the route of smuggling of these means of entertainment also changed. Now all these goods are supplied through pen drives from the border with China.
