This person is a faker using translate. Even allowing for differences between southern and northern dialects, they do not speak Korean like a Korean. Their English grammatical and spelling errors are also not even remotely close to those typically made by Koreans who are only partly familiar with English. They have also referred to their country as "북한": "North Korea". Pretty sure that's a hangable offense up there in the land of Joseon.

Entertainment maybe, but don't expect any truth in here. Kinda like Fox News I suppose.

OP: Next time, don't use commas in your Hangeul. They are a western invention. South Koreans use them very rarely, now. I can't imagine North Koreans use them at all.

I'd really appreciate it if you could provide as much info as you can about how you're accessing Lemmy.

Is it through a device you're allowed to use or one you're using illegally?

Is it a desktop, laptop, smartphone or tablet?

What operating system does it use? Windows, Linux, Android, iOS?

What method does it connect to the internet through? Dial up, wired broadband, wifi or through a mobile network?

[–] dandelion@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 6 days ago (1 children)

don't these questions pose risks to OP, why are you asking these questions?

[–] Aggravationstation@feddit.uk 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Fair point. I'm a techie, that's where most of my interest lies.

[–] dandelion@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 6 days ago

I mean, same - I wonder all the same things too, but I didn't ask them because I assumed they would pose a risk 🤷‍♀️

How are you accessing the internet? My understanding was that there was only an extremely restricted intranet.

Do you use Red Star OS?

Hi Song, I was wondering what sort of art people enjoy in North Korea? Any poetry, folk tales or painting?

Hope you have a nice day

[–] learningduck@programming.dev 3 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

How do people in NK normally use the internet?

How do people learn English? Your English is much better than I expected for a NK citizen.

[–] Phunter@lemm.ee 3 points 1 week ago

Can you give a run down of what a normal day in your life is like?

[–] pewgar_seemsimandroid@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

how do you plan on escaping? how's the wired radio?

This post technically doesn't go against out rules, aside from not having a question mark, so I will leave it up, but please note that there is no way to verify this person is actually who they say they are, and you should be wary of misinformation online.

Any way to verify?

Other than that: how is life in your close community?

I have access to the internet ... I cant name reasons . I use TOR with bridges ... I use lemmy because its easy to acess with TOR . I like using reddit too !! I dont have acount because the website is bugged on TOR ... it is hard to use.

Using another websites is also hard !! I sometimes watch youtube but the website is bugged so I use Invidious . I like many youtubers like NileRed and Veritasium .

One of lemmy's biggest gaps has been it's lack of creative writing. It's great to see some of the popular fiction is finally reaching us

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 25 points 1 week ago (4 children)

How are you able to access Lemmy? I thought internet access is restricted. What’s the general internet ability for most people?
