      If they found out I was a commie in south korea. I’ll probably be killed or tortured to death and no one will ever know why I was missing lol.

          That border is the most heavily militarized in the world, you would probably get shot if you actually managed to get near it.

            We should make it easier to migrate to north korea for those who want. Make a special bridge or tunnel or something. I wouldn’t mind TBH

              refer to @CriticalResist8@lemmygrad.ml’s post; https://lemmygrad.ml/post/25498

              Then there are the defectors. More often than not, they are abducted and forced to live in the puppet state known as South Korea. They are monitored 24/7 by the national intelligence service (NIS). They are not allowed a passport, because they could go back to the DPRK with it. They are held hostage in enemy territory. Then they turn your people against you. They turn you into a defector. They urge you to say ludicrous things on TV if you want to get out of their cells. And because people don’t want to hear the same tame stories for the 15th time, they give you scripts that get more and more outrageous as time goes on.

          Sure why not. But in that situation as a chinese descent I rather go to there instead.
