KP

Where the only thing more abundant than propaganda is the number of people trying to escape.

North Korea: The world's most enthusiastic communist country, where everyone loves the government almost as much as they love complaining about the government.

North Korea: A nation where the phrase "worker's paradise" takes on a whole new meaning – literally, since the workers are all stuck in the same old paradise.
