Rarely Seen Images Of North Korea

North Korean Rural Life Through the Lens

Photos can reveal a lot about life in different countries, and this is especially true for North Korea, known for its secrecy. This photo captures a glimpse of rural life in the country. The scene shows children playing in a dusty neighborhood with incomplete housing. Interestingly, this was considered a relatively nicer part of town, according to the photographer. It raises the question of what rural areas that aren't as "nice" must look like. It's a small but revealing window into a way of life that is largely hidden from outsiders.
