      languages are different between the two countries

      they aren’t, there’s very little difference in the language. minor differences in intonation and vocabs, but that’s same for every different dialects (even only considering south korea).

        you ever been to korea? i’m (south) korean and live here, there are certainly many negative aspects of this country like any other but i wouldn’t say it’s a “terrifying/scary hypercapitalist place”.

    They’re not allowed to leave South Korea or do many types of jobs for a certain number of years. They get a little help from the government, but most rely on giving interviews to the media or public speaking to make ends meet. This suits the South Korean government, since saying positive things about North Korea is illegal, so these people can be starved into saying whatever they want.
