Summary
Kim Jong-un has introduced stricter laws in North Korea, sending both spouses in divorcing couples to labor camps for up to six months, with women often receiving longer sentences.
The regime views divorce as anti-socialist. Previously, only the spouse who initiated the divorce was punished.
Rising divorce rates since COVID-19 lockdowns have persisted despite public humiliation and threats of expulsion from the Korean Workers’ Party.
Reports indicate labor camps house dozens of divorcees, mostly in their late 30s, under harsh conditions.
This sources it’s information from Radio Free Asian(RFA) which is a known propaganda arm of the USA… If you don’t believe me the would you believe the CIA?

Weird wonder why they need to fund propaganda against North Korea 🤔
It was a cia mouthpiece from 1951 to 1955. Its modern iteration is far removed from that. While we could really get into the weeds about RFA as a source, the fact that you’re citing random cia docs from 1953 without either realizing or indicating that the CIA program was defunded 2 years later leads me to believe you aren’t interested in legitimate debate about this.
Ah yes, Radio Free Asia. The CIA cutout that successfully convinced a bunch of people that North Koreans were getting sent to labor camps for getting the wrong haircut.
Why is this guy being down-voted? This is true by the CIAs own admission and it’s the only source for the news article
*from 1951-1955 when it was defunded. The modern iteration is far removed from this project and your line of argument is disingenuous at best.
RFA is still funded by the USA…

Ok? Can you try rereading what we both wrote and explain how that is at all relevant? The BBC is funded by the UK, does that inherently make it an unreliable source/ MI6 propaganda outlet? 🤡
Why are you so angry? You ok dude?
If you don’t understand how the RFA is still being funded by the USA in 2024 is relevant to where you said funding cease in 1955 then I don’t know how to help. Unless you only read that article’s headline and not even the first sentence… I’m just trying to provide sources for you since you thought the funding stopped.
That iteration, as I claimed literally exactly, was defunded in 1955. A quick Google search shows this.
