16th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest People
People. Faces. North Korea

Joseon - this is how the inhabitants call their country. In Korean it means «Country of morning freshness». Outside its borders it is known as North Korea. Complicated, contradictory, shrouded in myths and legends in media publications. It is the only country on the Earth in which there is classical socialism. The way of life of Koreans, their mentality and culture are therefore difficult to understand for most Western People.
