There are 14 things Nigerians do every day that are illegal in North Korea.




Thought you had it tough in Nigerian, eh?

Well count yourself lucky you can at least have a bottle of Coca-cola, watch porn when konji starts knocking and blast some Zlatan Ibile songs in your bedroom – because all of these are illegal in North Korea. Here are 14 everyday things that’ll get you in serious trouble in North Korea

1.Drinking Coca-cola.

For the average Nigerian, Sunday rice is never complete without a cold bottle of Coca-cola but in North-Korea it is not sold there

North-Koreans buy coke knock-offs from grocery stores, hold their noses and imagine they are drinking Coca-cola. Poor souls!

2. Watching Cable Television.

There is nothing like this in North Korea.

In North Korea, there is no Zee World, MNet, MTV Base or any kind of station you enjoy here in Nigerian. North Korea only has 4 official TV channels available in the country. Censorship by the government is so strong that it does not allow any other type of television.

3. Playing Music.

No Wizkid, Davido, Zlatan, Naria Marley or any foreign music for these guys. If North Koren musicians are not singing about how great Kim Jong-un is they are singing about how great North-Korea is.

4. Having an Opinion.

Go to a newspaper stands and you see Nigerians raining curses on Buhari and co but in North- Korea, you dare not criticize the regime. If you want to do whisper it to yourself or else you will be sent to an educational camp.

5. Using iPhone.

There is a restriction on selling any type of modern high-tech device to North Korea. Buying an iPhone is not possible. However, North Korea had developed its own tablet PC that boasts of being a substitute for any Western ones.

6. Religion.

North Korea is officially an atheist country. All forms of religious practices are forbidden or heavily monitored by the government. Therefore, you cannot buy or possess any Christmas decorations such as Christmas trees. In 2009, a woman was executed for giving out Bibles in the street.

7. Pornography.

Pornography is banned.

In North Korea viewing or selling pornography is punishable by death. Yes! If a person is caught watching or selling erotic films, magazines, etc, he/she will die by hanging. Vaseline Crew does not exist in this part of the world.

8. Condoms.

No condoms in north korea.

All forms of birth control are prohibited in North Korea, and so getting a condom is a very difficult task. Birth control is banned in the country as Kim-Jong-un strives to create a bigger population of socialist workers.

9. Going online.
Internet banned in north korea

North Korea doesn’t have the world wide web, rather a portal to state-run propaganda.

10. Sanitary Pads.

Sanitary pads and tampons are not available in North Korea. Women use reusable pads.

11. Hairstyles.

Kim Jong-un allows only 18 haircuts for women and 15 for men. None of the hairstyles allow a change in hair color.

12. Keeping in touch with people abroad.

Making a call to someone outside North Korea will get you killed. In 2007 a man was gunned down inside a stadium for making numerous international calls. Six people were also crushed to death in a stampede after the execution.

13. Western magazines.

North Korea forbids all kinds of foreign media. Government control and monitor what is printed in the press. There are no lifestyle magazines, and the only ones that a North Korean may read will be of an educational or political character.

14. Driving.

Only state officials are allowed to own a car. It is estimated that only one in every 100 people in North Korea own a car.



Nigeria is not that bad after all.

Whenever you are having a bad day and you wish to fight the Angel that brought you to Nigeria, remember there are some people somewhere who are banned fro drinking coca-cola, using condoms and watching Hollywood movies.

This is picture of north and south Korean artists performing together.

How did I watch it on Korean tv if not through north Korean channel.

U guys will swallow every rubbish u see on the net without making the necessary research.

I have also been privileged to watch some parts of north Korea on tv. U can get them always on any south Korean tv. They have their tv channels but there is restrictions in watching foreign channels.

When some kpop artists were invited to perform in north Korea, some where afraid cos of the bad international image the country have and the sensitivity associated with their cold war.
But when they come back, all they can say is they are shocked and will willingly go again if they are invited to perform.

This their present leader is seriously bridging the gap between the two countries.
