As food becomes more scarce people in poverty are forced to look else where for food.

Propaganda in North Korea

Propaganda is displayed in many ways, some include:
  • Posters
  • Films (cartoons especially)
  • Music
  • Art

North Korea uses propaganda to develop hatred against other countries, so if war breaks out no questions will be asked and generations of people will be against America and its allies. North Korea creates cartoons full of propaganda. Cartoons and other animated films carry political and military messages aimed at the young people of North Korea. The posters focus on military might, Utopian society and devotion to the state and the leader’s. The Kim’s have had hymns written for them and are repeatedly played throughout the country. Art is often used to depict military influence and is used to popularise the army.
