I've been watching some North Korean documentary videos and cuisine and travel vlogs on the net out of my curiosity on their lifestyles especially what they are now. There are lots of travel vlogs around the world that showcase a lot of culture from different countries and luckily North Korea has one however due to their current political state there are some restrictions of what to say and do which tourists have to comply. For as long as it doesn't offend the NK government and the people there then you are good.
Some people who travelled or have seen video footage of the current lifestyle of North Koreans may say that life in North Korea is like living backwards, dull or have been stuck however every time I have seen some videos of people in Pyongyang, they seem to live a decent lifestyle but we do not know what goes behind the scenes and even on other places in North Korea.
For some reason, I find their simple life appealing, and I do feel that North Korea is a nice place to stay for Introverts and for those who practice Minimalism and frugal lifestyle. North Korea is also known as the Hermit country in which they are not aware of the corruptions and the flaws that we are experiencing from the different types of government that we are in.
If North Korea is free from its current political status and achieves its reunification with South Korea or they become an independent nation of their own, we do hope that they would learn and adapt the positive qualities that they will acquire from the South and other countries that would fit into their current needs not merely adapting it because of the trend as they retain and enhance the existing positive qualities they have as a country especially that simple way of living. They are on the process of rebuilding themselves once it happens.
True that all the countries around the world have benefited from the technological and other advancements but as a country that starts a new beginning, balance and the ability to discern what is important or not are crucial. We have seen lots of flaws of these advancements and we do hope that countries that would help North Korea rebuild but doesn't repeat the same mistakes that we encounter from these advancements. North Korea has great potential of becoming a better nation once they know how to play their cards well.
