real estate fraud by Kim Jong Un In the past, there was a real estate bubble in North Korea.Real estate worth more than 20 million yen is not affordable to the people of that economic level of communist country.North Korea is always short of foreign currency, and the underground economy is the foundation of North Korea's economy.On the surface, large amounts of money are flowing into foreign products and DVDs that are considered illegal.
More than half of the high-end villas in Heungmu-dong, Peony Peak, Pyongyang, were found to be empty, and Kim Jong-un held a state-led auction.At the time of the auction, the authorities ordered that the source of the money and the background of the successful bidder be independent.Since there is no need to worry about money from the black market, elite officials from 11 agencies that procure, research, and analyze nuclear and missile development parts from abroad participated in the auction, raising the purchase price to 23 million yen. by National Leaders
Two years later, at the end of 2019, Kim Jong Un suddenly announced that he would provide new luxury apartments to executives of 11 stations, and ordinary employees would be given apartments in the middle and new apartments in Mangyeongdae would be given to section chiefs.No one can refuse to provide Kim Jong Un with an apartment.They gave up luxury villas one after another and moved to a new apartment.Of course,at the past almost half of the rooms were empty, so no one could buy them even if real estate prices continued to fall.
Kim Jong-un sold high-end villas to elite executives at auction and transferred them to poor-quality new apartments and deposited the difference into the national treasury.Real estate prices have fallen by one-tenth since 2021, with the government ordering the eradication of private transactions in state-owned housing.

Poverty in North Korea is caused by not working | Working population is too small - 20% of men do not engage in production activities
North Korea will continue to be poor. The reason is that it doesn't work. If you work, you will become a little richer. Come to think of it, there are some people who say they can't work because there are no jobs in North Korea, but don't be foolish. There will be jobs because there are people. Because your job is to help people. In other words, there is no work because you don't have that feeling or idea. In other words, the hopeless aspect of communism is that it lacks the concept of service.
It is said that 5% of North Korea's population are military personnel. If there were an equal number of men and women in the population, 10% of men would be military personnel. If you exclude children and the elderly from that number, I wonder if about one in five men are military personnel. In other words, these are people who do not engage in productive activities. 20% of working men do not produce. Even if people work in factories, leaders, section managers, and department managers are said to be in a class society where they don't work at all. In other words, even among people involved in production, those above a certain class do not work. College graduates and other elites are enthusiastic about manufacturing missiles that have no place in the North Korean economy.
North Korea has a primitive economy that is roughly equivalent to barter. Simply put, if you can exchange food and daily necessities, you are considered lucky. For example, when exchanging soap for a single radish, paper money is merely used as an intermediary. In other words, the general rule is that if there is a shortage of radish, there will also be a shortage of soap.
What will happen if we provide food assistance here? It does nothing economically other than to alleviate starvation for a certain period of time. This is because food is meaningless unless producers produce it and exchange it in the market.
In other words, North Korea is poor because it doesn't work.
A sports festival that destroyed North Korea.Mayday Stadium was built at this time.
One of the reasons why the North Korean economy has fallen into the abyss is the 13th World Youth Student Festival.North Korea is also planning to host the Olympics in Seoul, but Samaranch, the president of the IOC, visited Pyongyang and returned home saying, anyway we will consider some opportunity but I don't know when.
The World Youth Student Festival is a sports, culture and art festival held in socialist countries.This was the first time that parent and children had clashed head-on over Kim Jong Il's proposal to hold other sports festival event against the hosting of the Korean Olympic Games.As a result, the decision was made in the process of transferring power to his son, Kim Jong Il.
The May Day Stadium (now a stadium where mass games and missile exhibitions are held) and hotels have been built, attracting 12,000 people from other countries for free.Most of North Korea's GNP was invested in the event.The huge state-funded festival put the country's finances in jeopardy.Since then, North Korea's domestic distribution has stopped, causing a large number of people to starve to death.
Hamgyeongnam-do, which earned 60 to 70 percent of North Korea's foreign currency at that time.It is said that the first people to starve to death were those who worked in a mine in Hamgyeongnam-do.
North Korea's country's huge tilt was due to the huge investment in the sports festival.It was a product of ostentatiousness against Korea.
North Korea launched its third missile test this year on the 14th, the missile falled outside Japan's EEZ.
Yesterday, the 14th, North Korea conducted its third missile test of this year. This ballistic missile appears to have flown approximately 400km and landedoutside Japan's EEZ. North Korea has frequently carried out provocations this year. The move is seen as retaliation for sanctions imposed by the United States on the 12th. Why doesn't North Korea stop its missile tests in the first place?
It is said that one in five people in North Korea is a military member. It is an army that protects the Kim dynasty. Kim Jong-un says the missiles are for the country's self-defense, but in reality they are nothing more than an army under a dictatorship. North Korea continues to suffer from chronic food and resource shortages. Even if the people starve to death, a large amount of national funds will be spent on missile development. It is easy to notice this contradiction when you consider how many people will be saved by the cost of missile development.
One in five people, or 20% of the population, are not engaged in production-related industries. If there is no war, the main jobs of military personnel are training and security. In other words, the remaining 80% will be the labor force that supports North Korea's GDP. 20% of the poor people are not engaged in production. Most of the North Korean soldiers are said to be malnourished. A North Korean soldier who escaped from Panmunjom to South Korea was shot multiple times from behind by North Korean soldiers and underwent surgery in South Korea, where a large number of parasites were discovered in his intestines. .
North Korea's economy is no longer at a level where it can run a country, and its soldiers do not have the stamina to carry out operations. This led to the development of low-cost nuclear missiles. No matter how many soldiers they feed, they no longer have the ability to conduct land battles.
North Korea will not stop nuclear missile tests for these reasons. There is no longer an option for the military to protect the country by stopping nuclear missiles.
Kim Jong-un's mother, Ko Yong-hee, was born in Osaka and is a second-generation Japanese resident.His father was a Korean resident in Japan, and went to North Korea with his family on a post-war repat
Kim Jong-un's mother, Go Yong-hee, is a second-generation Korean living in Japan and was born in Osaka, Japan. She was born in Tsuruhashi, near Ikuno Korea Town. She is said to have returned to North Korea with her parents around 1962. Ko Yong Hee's father was a Korean resident in Japan who was born in Jeju and moved to Osaka in 1929, where he worked as an executive at the Hirota Military Uniform Factory in Osaka, which was secretly designated by the Ministry of War. During the repatriation project led by North Korea and the Korean Federation of Korean Federations, they took the 99th repatriation route to North Hamgyong with three children, including Go Yong Hui and her mother, who is one of her father's wives. It took root in Domei.
She graduated from the dance department of Pyongyang College of Music and Dance (currently Kim Won-gyun University of Music), and in 1971 she became a dancer with the Mansu University Art Troupe, changing her name to Go Yong-hee. In 1972 she received the title of ``Public Actor''. In 1973, the Mansuda Art Troupe completed a successful performance in Japan, and her Japanese-born girlfriend, a hired princess, attracted attention and became famous. Princess Go Yong joins her group, and she becomes Kim Jong Il's third mistress. Kim Jong Il called her ``Ayumi'' in Japanese style. According to North Korea's official records, she is a former member of the North Jeju Army on Jeju Island.
What Happened to Princess Gaoyong Since the 2000s, she has been treated for breast cancer, and in 2003 her cancer recurred, making it virtually incurable. In September 2003, he suffered a severe head injury in a traffic accident, and his health further deteriorated.Following a secret visit by French medical staff to North Korea that year, he was admitted to a hospital in Paris in 2004. It was revealed that he had undergone tumor- and brain-related treatment. In May 2002, it was discovered that Kim Jong-nam, who was appointed as the Minister of National Security in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, entered Japan on a fake passport. He was deported and dismissed from his position as head of the National Security Agency. At this time, there is a theory that some sources spread information that Princess Gaoyong had visited Japan with a fake passport in order to prevent the selection of her legitimate son's successor. There are rumors that Princess Gao Yong died of a heart attack and cancer while undergoing treatment in Paris, France on August 13, 2004, but she had already passed away three months earlier, in May. may have died. Her gravestone, which has since been made public, confirms that she died on May 24, 2004.
Kenji Fujimoto was hired as Kim Jong Il's personal chef and served Japanese cuisine, and was reportedly assigned as Kim Jong Un's childhood playmate. Perhaps the keywords "Princess Gaoyong" and "Japan" are related. In any case, it seems that the lineage of Mt. Paekdu is a little complicated.
