North Korea has always been a country that attracts global attention. It has one again found itself the subject of breaking news due to its leader’s threat against other countries – United Stated, Russia, Japan, South Korea and unbelievably even Australia! The pressure is rising and even the only friend North Korea has in the face of China is making a step back in supporting Kim Jong-un. In this situation we are wondering how the North Koreans are handling life and what it is for them? Here are 31 secret photos that were taken by French photographer Eric Lafforgue that are revealing the true life in this outcast country.

The leaders of North Korea make sure to portray their country as a communist dictatorship paradise, with full employment, big buildings, and most importantly, happy smiling people. However the communist dictatorship is trying to present to the world that North Koreans are living in a modern world with all benefits that comes with it. That they have big buildings, offer full employment and most of all the people are happy. On this picture the truth leaks and you can tell how sad and tragic their life actually is just by the angry and unsatisfied looks on their faces. Photographer Eric Lafforgue’s hidden camera captured this priceless moment.
