Exactly. It really takes out the immersion when you’re watching something, then an ad starts screaming at you randomly

As mentioned above, there is no such thing as unbiased, however if you’re looking for books on north Korea that aren’t exaggerated lies and hyperboles spread by the west, here are some of my suggestions based off what I know (Note that I haven’t read all of them):

Any of the hundreds of books from korean-books.com.kp/en

Fair point. I’ll remove this post

Should I delete this post and repost in “leftist infighting”?

Do you have more art such as this? I’d love to see it if so!

WHAT?

Which language are you trying to learn?

Hope the situation there improves!
