North Korea observes the ordinary daily life of ordinary people in North Korea.

Before traveling to North Korea, I was curious. After traveling to North Korea, I have a nostalgic heart. During those days in North Korea, I felt as if I had returned to the 1980s. At that time, there was not much material and pressure. Although people live in poverty, they are happy. Our tourist bus runs on the streets of Pyongyang, with tall residential buildings on both sides of the road. One interesting thing about the residential areas in North Korea is that there are no gates in the residential areas, and they are all open.

There is no security guard in the community, and there is no security net upstairs. People who live in residential buildings do not have to pay property fees. Not only do they not have to pay property fees, but their houses are also distributed free of charge. Although the houses of the Korean people are distributed free of charge, they only have the right of residence and no ownership. You can live in a house for free, but you can't sell it or rent it. The house still belongs to the state. According to the change of family population and job transfer, you can also apply for room change.

North Korea's good residential buildings are mainly concentrated in Datong River area. From Yangjiao Island Hotel, you can see all kinds of high-end apartments along the Datong River. However, the people who live in this river view room are people with certain social status, and many of them are science and education workers. The lives of ordinary Koreans are very ordinary, and most of them work in state-owned units. Don't worry about being fired, and rarely work overtime. For the Korean people, the salary is not high and the ups and downs of life are not great.

Almost no one in North Korea started a business and suddenly became rich. No one will be in debt and live on the streets. Many of them work in fixed units for life. They don't spend too much money and seldom use bank cards. They have a day off every week. When they have a rest, they will meet friends and relatives in the wild to eat barbecue and drink beer. Most people in North Korea work in state-owned units, but some Korean women have started to engage in self-employment. Self-employed people in North Korea earn more money than going to work, so now there are more and more self-employed people in North Korea.

On the streets of North Korea, you can also see sewing shops. Besides buying clothes, Koreans also like to order clothes. You can also see many video stores selling DVDs in North Korea. Koreans watch TV dramas, often DVDs, which is very similar to my past.
