Would You Risk Being Detained In North Korea

in #life7 years ago

If you're anything like me, you know some of the stories of United States citizens being detained in North Korea. The most recent one is still making headlines.

A place where pictures are almost forbidden, one photographer defied all rules and fear by sneaking a couple SD cards for us to appreciate what his camera has captured.

Photographer Eric Lafforgue is the daredevil who was able to sneak the photos and down below are two links. The first is to a site that highlight mainly on these forbidden pictures with quotes to go with from his own experience at that precise moment. The second link is an youtube link that gives us more of an in depth look of North Korea.

I wouldn't risk anything.

What a powerful sharing you are giving us a sneak peak of a life under control, far from our decentralization and empowered citizens. Thank you so very much for it all, we all gain from knowing what this sort of governing leads to.

Namaste :)

it sad that they have money to make weapons and propaganda while their people are eating grass, that photo broke my heart, and having kids working on farm is child labor

Seems like a bad place to get detained

Very interesting video.

Just another Communist paradise. And Bernie Sanders want to duplicate that success in the US. Go figure!

I don't know what to believe any more, there is so much corruption who's right who's wrong whats real? lol

I would not risk it but big ups to the man who did. That sir is what you call courage.

I don't think there's a worse place to live on the entire planet.

I feel so bad, even with the little knowledge I have. But I have hope that Kim Jong Un, and all his ilk, will get what's coming to him.

What a topic have you selected for your post, no body will take risk being detained in North Korea.

You say nobody, yet there are Americans in N. Korean prisons as we speak. I am guessing that certain religious missionaries would say it's their "calling". I would imagine that many reporters believe that they have a duty.

I work in the oil field, I could make a TON more money going to a middle eastern country to work, but.....Money isn't EVERYTHING. NO, not going.

thanks for sharing this wonderful post. keep it up Dear @joseph
