The state controls all the aspects of life of it's citizens, so expect your faith to be also the "property" of the state like the Communist revolution it is "also" the property of the state. According to Kim a North Korean citizen lives for the glory of the state = gloomy :(
@Taesungy Even if he was a monk, do you have absolutely no regard for his own personal safety? North Korea is a deeply troubled and deeply isolated communist state controlled by a dictator with no concern for his citizens, only to concentrate on his military. It is no surprise that if he were found, he would be dead right now, and I would not be surprised if this monk was already dead. It is a sad state to see how religion is being treated in North Korea. Please mind your words.
He is a fake monk,,,, not shaving his head,,,,chanting is very awkward~

I am so sad to watching this clip. Buddhism under control of communist party for along time. Vietnam lucky to get out of this situation since 1990s.
