In a new shock to the world, North Korea has reportedly executed a man publicly just because he was consuming and sharing K-pop music and South Korean movies, South Korea claimed.
South Korea had published a report on human rights with testimonials from North Korean defectors. It was revealed in the report that a 22-year-old man from South Hwanghae was publicly executed because he was listening and watching 70 k-pop songs and 3 South Korean movies. He was also charged with distributing these banned media in the country.
Claiming it as a step to restrict the negative influence of the western world, North Korea maintains strict vigil on entertainment consumption of its citizens.
Many reports have erupted from Kim-Jong-Un's country that revealed many such bizarre restrictions. One such report stated that the country also has a rule for the hairstyles of its citizens.
However, despite the shocking revelations by defectors, North Korea had declined any human right violations in the country.
