North Koreans watch it as a terrestrial tv station. The terrestrial signal is being intercepted by a source in SK and from there streamed to the world. Anyway the world having access to NK media is important I think, it gives us a unique insight into what the everyday north korean is exposed to. Remember from the moment they are born till the day that they die this is the only kind of media they have access to, this is what shapes public opinion. They are ranked 196th out of 196 countries in the Freedom House’s Freedom of the Press index. I don't think people realize how controlled information is in NK, all international signals are jammed, television sets are hardwired/specifically built in the factory to receive only government signals. Every Korean household/business has a radio that is again hardwired to receive only local government stations, these radios don't even have an off switch but have volume control and must be checked and registered with the police. Any different type of radio is illegal I think this is something important to know while watching this stream: The two Koreas are still at war, and neither side is above employing censorship, disinformation, and outright propaganda. South Korea, for example, blocks access to North Korean Web sites and broadcasts. Its National Security Law promises lengthy prison sentences for any activity or material that the government judges to be pro–North Korean. Last November, for example, its top court upheld a jail sentence for a woman convicted of possessing instrumental music with composition titles that praised the North. | ||
