Kim Jong-un Attends Opening of 10,000 New Apartments in Hwasong District
Wow, I can't believe they build 10,000 new apartments just for show so they can take tourists on tours through all 10,000 empty apartments and that they 100% will not use these to house citizens, crazy that it's all just fake. Just shows you how crazy the North Korea gommunist regime is.
uncritical support for the DPRK in its heroic struggle to liberate occupied Korea from the genocidal American empire
DPRK learning from the ancient Chinese tradition of massive screen on side of building.
Damn I really like that foot bridge. Any city with raised foot bridges is an instant A tier
I would much rather walkways be level instead. It's way better and more accessible for people on foot, other stuff like cars and transit can climb up and down easily
Raised foot bridges are a sure sign of car centric planning. Instant nope. This one looks dope tho
Hive soldier avatar? we're best friends now
Hell yeah sometimes it's that easy
oh god oh fuck is that a DPRK-Pop group?
"Yeah, I'm into K-Pop"
There is no ethical K-Pop under capitalism
These kinds of questions are why I want us to get some North Koreans to do an AMA here
@MohammedTheCommunistPalestinian@hexbear.net Hey bud don't you know a guy from DPRK?
Bring back the ladies in brightly colored dresses! RetVrn!
moranbong band? or is that someone else
To the chuds who constantly say why doesn't the DPRK spend its money helping their people whenever they see Western media only covering their military parades and nuclear missile tests, just show them this.
This looks amazing. I hope Kim can replicate this over and over. The progress made under such massive oppression is inspiring.
Can’t fully make it out but does the billboard say 사회주의만세? Pretty fucking based tbqh
looks like :)
Great username btw, which I had it myself !
Their architecture is top tier, especially for a 3rd world nation with international sanctions
Uncritical support! Bless his big heart and the hearts of everyone who helped build this! This is very touching. If only more people knew what they make rise out of rubble.
This is the article published by KCNA where the photos came from. There are 43 photos included in the article. The website is hosted in DPRK.

Cool bridge
It does look kinda weird to me in that first pic how empty the streets are outside of the rectangular borders of the crowd. I think I see one other person along that main street?
I think some of it is due to the population of the DPRK. It's roughly half of the ROK, so I've imagined a lot of this infrastructure is designed for future expansion rather than reflective of the current size of the population. Probably an aspect of it involves moving people from rural communities into cities.
It strikes me as similar to countries like Myanmar and Egypt that built massive cities with plans to move their governments to them, but in the meantime they sorta lay empty because people simply live somewhere else.
it's likely roped off for the ribbon cutting. god forbid we have orderly public events
You're looking at an event. That's not a crowd, it's an audience. With the majority in front of the stage.
