North Korean Army in Russia Gets Addicted to Porn
North Korean soldiers who are in Ukraine on behalf of Russia have been gorging on porn after getting unrestricted internet access for the first time.
As you all know, there is a war going on between Ukraine and Russia. ISH has released several videos on it. If you missed watching it, you can watch it here:
To help Russia fight against Ukraine, North Korea had sent its army to Russia.
Around 7,000 to 10,000 North Korean soldiers are now near the Russia-Ukraine border in a place called the Kursk region. This is the first time they are there to take part in fighting.
The soldiers have trained at different places to get ready to stay and help for a long time if needed.
They are armed with the latest equipment including AK-12 rifles and mortar rounds.
Gideon Rachman, a writer for the Financial Times, shared this news on X (Twitter), saying, “A reliable source told me that the North Korean soldiers in Russia have never had full internet access before. Now for the first time in their lives, they have free access to the internet. This is why they have become addicted to pornography.”
But how can people, especially soldiers, get addicted to porn in a war zone and spend their precious time watching adult content continuously instead of fighting?
In North Korea, internet access is very limited. A 2016 report showed people can only see 28 websites, mostly about their leader, Kim Jong Un. Watching adult videos is illegal and very dangerous in North Korea. Kim Jong Un has ordered his secret squad to shoot anyone for watching such content or following foreign customs like birthday parties or haircuts.
When these soldiers went to Russia, they got unrestricted internet for the first time. This reportedly led to them spending a lot of time watching adult videos.
However, a U.S. Department of Defense spokesperson, Lt. Col. Charlie Dietz, said they could not confirm these reports. He added that the U.S. is more focused on the military role of North Korean soldiers in the war, not their internet use.
