This post technically doesn't go against out rules, aside from not having a question mark, so I will leave it up, but please note that there is no way to verify this person is actually who they say they are, and you should be wary of misinformation online.

Any way to verify?

Other than that: how is life in your close community?

I cant think of a way to do that would not comprimise me ... Im sorry but you dont have to trust me . I am not here to promote political agenda !! I want to answer questions people can have about NK .

You speak the truth when you say NK is closed off but most people are happy about that . I enjoy living here .

This person is a faker using translate. Even allowing for differences between southern and northern dialects, they do not speak Korean like a Korean. Their English grammatical and spelling errors are also not even remotely close to those typically made by Koreans who are only partly familiar with English. They have also referred to their country as "북한": "North Korea". Pretty sure that's a hangable offense up there in the land of Joseon.

Entertainment maybe, but don't expect any truth in here. Kinda like Fox News I suppose.

OP: Next time, don't use commas in your Hangeul. They are a western invention. South Koreans use them very rarely, now. I can't imagine North Koreans use them at all.

One of lemmy's biggest gaps has been it's lack of creative writing. It's great to see some of the popular fiction is finally reaching us

I have access to the internet ... I cant name reasons . I use TOR with bridges ... I use lemmy because its easy to acess with TOR . I like using reddit too !! I dont have acount because the website is bugged on TOR ... it is hard to use.

Using another websites is also hard !! I sometimes watch youtube but the website is bugged so I use Invidious . I like many youtubers like NileRed and Veritasium .

[–] notastatist@feddit.org 11 points 1 week ago

What do you like about Chemistry :) NileRed is best

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 24 points 1 week ago (2 children)

How are you able to access Lemmy? I thought internet access is restricted. What’s the general internet ability for most people?

[–] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 18 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Zero. OP clearly is in a somewhat elite home, assuming this is legit.

This is pretty sus. How would you download the Tor client without internet access to begin with? Why are you not responding in any Korean either? It would be a way to prove you're actually in the country as NK has a specific dialect compared to SK.

[–] MelonYellow@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 week ago (3 children)

I was gonna say, I thought North Koreans are completely disconnected from the internet. They have government propaganda intranet.

Can you take a picture of something that would show you're in NK that has no duplicate on the internet?

what do people do for fun when they have days off, on holiday,... ? how free are you to choose a partner and form a family in your culture? (i mean, are marriages arranged in some way, or do the relatioships form naturally?, can your partner be of the same sex, can you have multiple partners,...?)

[–] song00661@sh.itjust.works 21 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I like to be with my family and go out !! we have places like beach and parks and waterparks and we have fun .

In NK a long time ago families married daufhters to men they didnt know but it was not forced ... it was arranged . my mother married my father but she not know him until the day they married !! I have wife but I met her my parents dont choose her for me . Our relationship formed naturaly !! I dont know NK people who had a partner like man man or a lot of wives !!
