This is a continuation of the North Korean propaganda series.  Click here for the table of contents.

Notes needed to understand the posters:

  • Four Great Main Principles (4대제일주의) = Leader (수령) + Ideas (사상) + Army (군대)+ Regime (제도)
  • Three revolutions (3대혁명) = Culture revolution (문화혁명) + Technological revolution (기술혁명) + Ideology revolution (사상혁명)

Learn and follow the Anti-Japanese patriotic mind and

Next, we’ll be looking at more assorted posters.

  1. Hi!
    Thank you for all the wonderful resources about North Korea.
    I’m just wondering if I could use one of the images, the poster “Youth, Join the youth league…” for my lesson about North Korean Youth. I guess you are the one who have the copyright, right? For your information, I’m teaching Korean lnaguage in California.

    Thanks!
    Looking forward to your reply,

    Jean

    • Actually, I’m not. I really should have recorded where I got my images, but I didn’t. I’m hoping to find out in the future, but the problem is that there are many copies of the same image around the net so finding the original person might be hard for some of these.
