Mysterious trip to north Korea-experience different customs.

The mysterious life in North Korea will always arouse people's curiosity and lead everyone into North Korea to feel the different customs there!

1, the capital of North Korea is Pyongyang, which is the political and cultural center of North Korea, the gathering place of foreign personnel in the world and the business card of North Korea's external publicity.

Kaesong in North Korea is a famous industrial city, where there is an industrial park. Some foreign-related business factories, including cooperation with South Korea, have also settled here.

2. Hamhung City is the second largest city in North Korea, second only to Pyongyang. It is the base of North Korea's chemical industry, machinery industry and textile industry, and is known as the "industrial capital".

The famous Nanxing Chemical Plant is located in Xianxing, where Premier Zhou Tongren, the only foreign leader of North Korea, was cast. The image of Premier Zhou is deeply rooted in the hearts of North Koreans, and many locals often come to remember and offer flowers.

Hamhung also has a long coastline in North Korea. Martin tourist area attracts many tourists from home and abroad. The bathing beach is fascinating, and the seaside beach in summer brings together an endless stream of tourists.

3. North Korea also has its own expressway, which was built earlier than China. It's just that the status quo is not what it used to be. The road is bumpy, pedestrians and bicycles can go on the road at will, and North Korean ox carts can also go to expressway.

Because of its long history, it has not been improved. Their reason is that the cost of using asphalt is too high, and we must first meet the needs of urban road maintenance.

When I was working in North Korea, I drove all the way from Pyongyang to Kaesong. When the speed exceeds 40 mph, sitting in the car will feel particularly bumpy.

Recently, North Korea is drawing up a tender to build a new expressway from Yuanshan to Xianxing, aiming at improving the road conditions in North Korea.

4. In the streets and alleys of major cities in North Korea, various propaganda slogans can be seen everywhere, as well as the propaganda portrait of Little Square, the leader.

You can always see many posters and slogans that you can't understand in conspicuous places in cities and rural areas here. Most of the translation content is "go all out! The slogan of building a strong country.

Walking into North Korea, there is a feeling of going back in time. I will be immersed in the atmosphere of their national mobilization for production, and I always feel deja vu!

5. North Korean local men are generally thin and still keen on wearing military uniforms and Chinese tunic suits. With the progress of the times, suits and jackets have appeared one after another.

Most North Korean girls are white and beautiful, wearing professional clothes and dresses, walking on the streets of Pyongyang to lead North Korean fashion.

Local people walking in the street here will wear various badges of North Korean leaders on their chests, which are obviously different from those of foreigners.

Foreigners who want to wear medals usually need to make outstanding contributions to be awarded belts. Here, medals are not allowed to be sold and can only be owned if they are given to foreigners.

6. Women in North Korea will be called "skirts". When they are called pants, they will be particularly happy. The men here are called "pants".

On the streets of Pyongyang, women are required to go out and wear skirts, which are knee-length. According to legend, their national leaders praised: women will look good in pants, pants are for men, and skirts should be worn in cold winter.

With the changes in recent years, the Korean people have gradually changed their concepts and gradually accepted that women wear pants.

"Jeans Series" is not accepted by local people here. Jeans are not made in North Korea, so people don't accept wearing jeans. Claiming that the "cowboy series" is a capitalist thing, unanimously resisted.

7. Smartphones have now appeared on the streets of Pyongyang, and North Korea itself is producing smartphones. There are three brands of mobile phones, such as Arirang, and low-headed people who look at smart phones can be seen everywhere on subways and buses in Pyongyang. They can play stand-alone games on their mobile phones.

The mobile phone here is equivalent to North Korea's huge regional network. They can't contact with the outside world and receive international news. They can only communicate internally.

When I was working in North Korea, the mobile phone number I used was an international number. The 3G network here has become popular, but I can't get in touch with them on their mobile phones. However, the cost is quite high. Opening a number costs 1, 200 RMB, and it costs 600 RMB every month if you don't call.

8. Ordinary families in North Korea have popularized household appliances. In the department stores in Pyongyang, it is often seen that local people come to purchase all kinds of high-end home appliances.

Pyongyang TV can only receive three TV channels, including Pyongyang TV, which broadcasts war movies all the year round, and more is to promote the news of North Korea.

China's spy film "Lurking" was introduced to North Korea, which was very popular among the local people in North Korea. Many young people in the north are fans of Korean actors. When working in North China, translators sometimes like to watch Korean movies and songs on my mobile phone.

9. With the open policy in recent years, there are more and more cars of various brands on the streets of Pyongyang, North Korea. Most car brands come from China, and some are Japanese brands.

The appearance is very similar to that of domestic taxis, which have spread all over the streets, but locals rarely take them, and most of them are used by foreigners.

There will be restrictions on private cars in Pyongyang, and you need to apply for approval to own private cars. More is distributed by the state to local people who have made outstanding contributions.

Bicycles are still sought after by the people in North Korea. It is still the pursuit of many families to spend more than 600 yuan to buy a bicycle for commuting.

10. There are two kinds of big braid buses on the streets of North Korea, which are trolley buses and trams. Foreigners are not allowed to travel with Koreans who commute to work. Locals can travel anywhere in Pyongyang for only 5 cents.

Pyongyang also has the deepest subway station in the world. We originally built the subway here, and now it has become their proudest building.

Public officials who work in the unit will receive bus tickets and subway tickets every month and go to work for free.

1 1, North Korea has a three-exemption policy, which leads to low wages here. The most sought-after professional drivers, tour guides and translators here earn five or six hundred yuan a month.

Although their monthly salary is very small and their actual consumption level is not high, they can still eat and wear. However, if you want to buy high-end home appliances and smart phones, usually a family needs to tighten their belts.

In the past, the consumption of foreign workers in Pyongyang was surprisingly high. If you stay in 500 yuan for 400 yuan per night, you need to eat in a foreign restaurant, and the per capita cost needs to be close to 100 yuan.

12. Now Korean girls gradually choose free love. Although it is stipulated in universities in Pyongyang that love is not allowed, there are still many secrets in my spare time, but I can't openly love each other.

In the new era, North Korean girls' mate selection criteria will give priority to high-quality men who have served in the army, attended universities and joined the party. However, there are many boys and girls in North Korea, and North Korean girls need to be better themselves in order to have their own choices.

Although Korean girls are as beautiful as flowers, foreigners are not free to fall in love, and some even exclude foreigners. You need foreigners who have made outstanding contributions in North Korea (investing more than several million RMB) to get their country's approval to live, fall in love and get married in North Korea.

13. There are many sports equipment and exclusive sports venues in the streets and alleys of Pyongyang. There is also a special volleyball court and basketball court at the entrance of the community. It is often seen that many local people are watching after work and playing volleyball in full swing.

There are many table tennis tables in public places in Pyongyang. In my spare time, I can often see local men, women and children picking up rackets and playing together.

When I was working in Pyongyang, I was lucky enough to experience playing table tennis with local people. My seemingly good skills are no match for them at all.

14, Korean girls go out after delicate makeup. In recent years, cosmetics used by Korean girls have been sought after by many tourists.

The famous cosmetics in North Korea are Chunxiang brand, and there are all kinds of Chunxiang brand cosmetics in the cabinets of some foreign-related shops.

Female tourists who have traveled to North Korea will choose to bring back several sets of local cosmetics containing ginseng powder. So later, many countries threw olive branches to North Korean cosmetics factories and wanted to cooperate with them in production.

15. Now traveling in North Korea, the local policy is gradually liberalized, and tourists can bring their mobile phones and cameras when entering the country. Where you can take photos in appropriate occasions.

There are many restrictions and taboos in taking pictures. For example, if there is an image of their leader in the background, it is necessary to take a full-body photo. Soldiers will not accept tourists to take pictures, and many places with bad environment will restrict taking pictures.

When tourists leave North Korea, some people will also check the mobile phone camera to see if the memory photos meet the regulations, and the photos that violate the regulations will be deleted on the spot.

16, Peony Peak Orchestra, a young fashion representative of North Korea, has attracted worldwide attention since its establishment.

This is a group of Korean girls from Jin Yuanjun Conservatory of Music. Their outstanding talents, one in a hundred values, swaying dance and their own brisk rhythm have been sought after by the Korean people. Arirang, Learning and Li Fen are their representative works.

They have become a beautiful brand name for North Korea on the international stage.

17. On the streets of Pyongyang, North Korea, there is also a beautiful scenery-North Korean female traffic police.

Each of them has undergone different degrees of screening, one in a hundred, and received on-the-job training. On the streets of Pyongyang, tourists who have been to North Korea are deeply impressed by the standard movements of the traffic baton in their hands.

At present, North Korea is still closed to the outside world and maintains a record of zero infection cases. I believe that in the near future, tourist routes will be opened again. I hope to have the opportunity to go to North Korea again, look for familiar scenes and look forward to seeing my old friends again.
