15 Illegal Photos of Life in North Korea That Will Blow Your Mind

[600Eric]

Stumbled across this random website with these crazy pictures of North Korea. The caption with photo more or less mentioned how no one has cars and they are "actually a recent commodity". Pretty funny even as isolated and cut off from they are from the rest world even word got out there that if you are lucky enough to be able to get a car you should get a W124 Mercedes....

Looks to be a RHD car, to boot... Probably a diplomat from one of the few countries that do have embassies there.

Think of the businesses that would go KRAZY importing cars and just about everything else if they got rid of that IDIOT Dictator and came into the modern world.

Look how China is changing.

There can't be very many happy people in that country.

i wouldn't be stealing any illegal pics you'll end up like that poor kid that just returned home in a coma.
That really SUCKS!!

Thanks Eric

When I lived in Hong Kong I talked to a couple that had just come back from a tourist trip to N. Korea. Why anyone would want to go there to give that regime money is beyond me. But even stranger was the story they told me about their time in a hotel. At night they were complaining about being bored because they couldn't leave their rooms, no TV etc. They said that even having a deck of cards would be nice. The next morning when they woke up, they found a nice new deck of cards sitting on a table. I guess it shouldn't be a surprise that your every move would be watched there. But the fact that the regime would make that so obvious as to enter the room at night to put something there just goes to show how messed up that place is.
