What happens if a North Korean girl is caught cheating on her husband (5 photos)
In North Korea, treason is really considered a serious crime, and people go to jail for such antics. Not only women, but men too.
Or rather, they did.... Recently, Comrade Kim and the party have repealed this law. But it existed for many decades. The foundation of the Korean state is the family. In Pyongyang, they are very strict about this and it is recorded in all teachings, school programs, and so on down the list, that the family is the core of the state. After the events on the Korean peninsula, the DPRK found itself in a very difficult situation. All the most fertile lands, most of the population and production facilities went to the south. And the rulers of that time assessed it this way: a state can only be built on iron discipline in conjunction with family values.
The talk was that we start a family for life, give birth to and raise children, and take care of our parents for the rest of our lives.
DPRK
If anyone doesn't know, today in North Korea there are no nursing homes of any kind. Even if a person has no family (children), then his closest relatives are obliged to take care of him. If they don't have them, then distant relatives. And only for a very small percentage of people who have no one at all, there are special institutions.
Now regarding cheating and divorce. It is clear that anything can happen and to say that there is no such thing there is wrong.
But in the DPRK it is still a crime. They do not put you in prison, but if this happens, be it a woman or a man, then you can be sure that EVERYONE will find out about it. And at work such a citizen will be brought out in front of the team and shown in all his glory, and the newspapers will write about it, and the person himself will be considered unreliable. This practice is still effective.
Divorces, like adultery, also exist. They make up 0000.1% of all marriages. That is, only a few, and then only in very complicated cases that are carefully analyzed. That is, you can't come and say that you don't get along. It may seem harsh to many, but for this country it is normal.
Koreans are brought up in such a way that family values and traditions of the Great Korean people prohibit adultery, and fidelity is synonymous with dignity and respect for the family. Today, North Korea is actively growing in population. Here is the birth rate chart.

Many people write that women in North Korea do not have the same rights as men. This is nonsense. In the Socialist Constitution of 1948 (and as amended in 1998), it is written that women have exactly the same rights as men.
