Propaganda in North Korea

Surtitles at a Korean revolutionary opera

Propaganda is widely used and produced by the government of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (North Korea). Most propaganda is based on the Juche ideology, veneration of the ruling Kim family, the promotion of the Workers' Party of Korea,[1] and hostilities against both the Republic of Korea and the United States.

The first syllable of Juche, "ju", means the man; the second syllable, "che", means body of oneself.[2] Article 3 of the Socialist Constitution proclaims, "The DPRK is guided in its activities by the Juche idea, a world outlook centered on people, a revolutionary ideology for achieving the independence of the masses of people."[3]

Many pictures of the supreme leaders are posted throughout the country.[4]
