REGIME OF DEATH North Korea stages sick public execution of teens for watching Squid Game – and forces other kids to observe slaughter: #The_Sun

Kim Jong-un is unleashing his wrath on innocent youngsters caught consuming foreign media in his war on South Korean TV and music, new testimonies from Amnesty International reveal.

Those disobeying his “arbitrary system” are sentenced to labour camps or subjected to brutal public humiliation, if not put to death for their “sins”.

North Koreans who fled the country told Amnesty that only large bribes can stop the harshest penalties.

Some become so desperate to escape the labour camps – infamous for torture systems, starvation rations and forced abortions – that they resort to selling their houses to pay off corrupt officials.

“People are caught for the same act, but punishment depends entirely on money,” said Choi Suvin, 39, who left North Korea in 2019.

“People without money sell their houses to gather $5,000 or $10,000 to pay to get out of the re-education camps.”

Kim Joonsik, 28, said he was caught watching South Korean dramas three times before eventually fleeing the country in 2019.

He managed to avoid punishment because his family had connections.

“Usually when high school students are caught, if their family has money, they just get warnings,” he said.
