The event, which will last for about 20 days, is reportedly held to promote Taedonggang beer, Pyongyang's own brew and the most popular brand of beer in the country.

The beer, named after the Taedong River that runs through the capital is a full-bodied lager a little on the sweet side, with a slightly bitter aftertaste.

"It is great. This is one of the best beers," said a Pyongyang resident.

"This is world class beer. It is great. We have our leadership to thank for being able to drink to our hearts' content today," said another resident.

my favorite made up thing about dprk is they don't allow any screening of foreign films and if you're caught with one you die or get sent to jail

meanwhile, this year the pyongyang international film festival is celebrating its 30th anniversary

I keep seeing these pro-DPRK memes on facebook and they keep arguing about whether it's good or bad in one of the tankie groups I'm in and I don't really know a lot about it so someone tell me if DPRK is good or bad. I guess they think it's like a conspiracy by imperalists and South Korea that all of the refugee accounts of people who escaped NK are like paid to say that stuff or something and America is bad? I dunno. Thanks 4 your help.

Whether North Korea is good, or bad, is not the most important question for us. The important thing is to stand against military intervention against them. Since Rex Tillerson said military action is on the table right on queue all these stories roll out about how they're so dangerous, how they could nuke us or whatever (they can't) and so on and it's ridiculous. They're not attacking anyone. They're on the other side of the world. Why the gently caress can't we leave them alone? The US rolled out that axis of evil in 2002 with Iran, Iraq, and the DPRK and the version two with Cuba, Libya, and Syria and look at the track record with many of those other countries, the people of North Korea are probably drat thankful they do have nukes at this point. Anyway they're good.

I lust in my heart for as many dead refugees as possible.
The US isn't going to invade North Korea. They have nukes, a million-man army and thousands of artillery pieces aimed directly at Seoul. Meanwhile the US has 30,000 troops and a few squadrons of fighters in South Korea. It's not gonna happen.
