28 haircuts

In North Korea there are only 28 haircuts allowed, such is the dictator's control over such personal and unimportant aspects as this.Men have 14 haircuts and can have a maximum length of 4 centimeters.Single women should wear it short.

Both the cultivation and consumption of marijuana is legal

Curious, taking into account the strict and extensive list of restrictions imposed by the dictator in his country.

Ultra-powerful leaders

Citizens must believe, and if not more they pretend well, that the leaders have supernatural powers. Since childhood they are told all kinds of stories, away from the re alidad, with the aim of making them submissive and fully controllable by the system.

One of the examples is that of the father of the current ruler who is said to have the power to control the climate.On Kim Jong-un se He says he was born from heaven, that generated a huge rainbow by his arrival.

Do you want a movie? Kidnaps a director

In the year 1978 , military agents kidnapped the movie director Shin Sang Ok and actress Choe Eun Hui, who It was his wife, to have several forced movies made.Fortunately, both of them were able to escape from the place a few years later.

Convictions that extend generation after generation

It's incredible but true.who commit a crime will not only be condemning themselves but also their family , particularly if the crime is treason to the regime (something we do not even contemplate in today's societies , since freedom of expression and thought is presupposed) or stolen.

The punishment is not to go to jail, but to forced labor camps where many of those sent there die d and hunger .On the other hand, both the one who committed the crime and his family, up to 3 generations, will be paying the crime.

'Voting' every five years

Kim Jong-un says his government is not a dictatorship because its inhabitants go to the polls once every 5 years, although there is only one candidate who is the one.Obviously, you cannot leave the vote blank or void because you can end paying for it with your life and that of your relatives.

Absolutely incredible.
