Here’s the thing, not many outsiders are even permitted to visit North Korea. You need a heavy regulated visa just to be allowed to enter the country and you definitely need some serious cash to do so. If you are allowed in, then you must remember that photography is completely frowned upon and extremely restricted. But thanks to some “rebels”, we’ve compiled some of the most rare photos taken from inside of North Korea that you just won’t believe.

So, yes, North Korea does have computers. However, take a look more closely. There is no actual electricity in order to power up the computer. This is just another facade that North Korean leaders have installed as they only want to give off the impression that they’re doing fine. One can assume that a tourist took the photo as they were allowed to see people using computers, however he or she was not meant to see the black, empty screen instead.

The Band

Look, it’s the Moranbong Band! Quite similar to K-Pop girl’s group, the Moranbong Band only includes members who were hand-picked by Kim Jong-Un himself. Furthermore, their music style varies on many levels, like pop, rock, and fusion. Moreover, the girls do not just perform for the regime, but sometimes also in China.
