My expectations are always low, but lol come on, this is Yeonmi Park shit. Three portraits hung in every home with no dust! Otherwise, summary execution!
Anyway, most of this is the classic cycling of old stories to make them look better-substantiated when every reference to X story comes from a given RFA report from an “anonymous informant”.
Burgers eat that shit up despite how ridiculous it is.
The things that accuse Korea of is not that outlandish, especially if you are living in a place with a monarch. We don’t need to go that many years back before it was commonplace for public spaces like hotels or community halls to hang portraits of the royals. People had that shit in their homes as well, like my great grandfather who had an honest to God equestrian statue of the king sitting on his desk.
Alright, but three portraits in every household, mandated by the state? Come on, that’s a little bit further.
not to mention it must be dust free and is subject to random inspection by state officials who presumably do nothing else
Of course western media and the grifters feeding them tall tales about Korea are going to exaggerate things. I’m just remarking that the core of the story, that there’s lots of portraits of the Kims in Korea, is not something completely alien to western societies.
