Amazing, thanks a lot! One place I'd love to discover, though I reckon it wouldn't be easy to get a proper view as he did.

Glad you found it interesting Obviousman and Million Voices!

Korea is a really fascinating place with a complex history.

I always got the impression that Eldritch seriously studied the cold war and military/political matters... so I thought that these North Korean photos were vaguely appropriate for a Sisters forum.

Maybe Eldritch should make his next grandiose music video in North Korea, I'm sure it would be a good backdrop for him! I can imagine him doing "Lucretia" or "Dominion" style poses in the deserted streets of Pyongyang! Or maybe a "Detonation Boulevard" style cruise through the military zone on the border of North and South Korea!

thanks for link, i saw few documentaries about NK but there's always not enough of that kind singularities.
it's strange that rest of the world can't do something to help regular people in countries like Burma, Belarus, NK or Cuba. :|
