These are the fruits of division. But bare in mind that this is not a communist state "exclusive". In Greece and after the post WW2 civil war, people suffered prosecution and exclusion almost for 30 years. Check also the recent history of Portugal and Spain. Of course in these cases the bad guys (or their parents) were of a left political orientation.

You're right. This is all about the lengths that the Kim dynasty will go in order to maintain power.

A true story. I remember that when me and my mum were watching the people shaking and crying after Kim Jong-il death my mum asked: are they only acting, or what? And I said: yeah, because if you don't tremble and cry convincing enough you are sent to a concentration camp. A month later we were watching a TV news and we learned that 3 men in some city in NK were sent to c.c. after a denunciation saying that "they were not mournful enough".

There is a good documentary, maybe some of you have already seen it, it's called The Yodok Stories. It's about people who escaped from the Yodok camp and about a man who was a guard there.

There is also a good book concerning the commie regime in general by V. Suvorov, The Last Republic. The main argument made by the author is: Is it possible to create a perfect system of detention?
Don't want to give you any spoilers bcoz it's definitely a good read. (even if you are prejudiced against V.Suvorov)
