no, it's not that it's "too much to accept" it's that i've lived in places, where there are documentaries and pictures, and sources...etc about how the place is a certain way, and yet when i lived in them, they were NOTHING like the docs and pics and articles said. i take things with a grain of salt, and quite honestly, i don't trust any source that tries to lead your thought. edit: and i mean, some of the comments are just bs like "during the day the elevator didn't work for 15 mins" "View from the monument, besides the pretty view you can also see the dead birds." oh jeez, that must be a terrible country, how can an elevator not work for a whole 15 mins! come to think of it, that happened to me in Germany... and in france... and in egypt... and in the usa... wow, the whole world sucks! and dead birds? you mean to tell me birds aren't immortal? you can see my sense of sarcasm. i'm not defending N.Korea, in my eyes, any and all tyrants can go to freakin hell.
