#1 Sounds like a nice place. Come and spend your money, but dont step over that white line or the guy with the machine gun will cut you in half. Who the hell would go to a shithole like this? Don't they have rocky crags in South Korea? Probably even without military guards, you can probably even give someone an ice cream bar without getting deported in Skor.

#6 I forgot to add that the poor soldier (and prob his family) are in prison or killed. He was tainted by those filthy SoKor tourists and therefor can't be trusted to upjhold the glory of Juiche.

#7 A lot of the South Koreans have this mystic nationalism thing going, a sacred land of Korea/Korean master-race idea.

The NK's have been pushing the idea for a long time, and tying it to the holy Il's.
