North Korea today is a very high tight living life style. Almost every citizen follows strict rules. Honor, loyalty, and fear are some of the characteristics associated with these people. With concentration camps, mine fields, and prisons, It striked fear to all citizens to follow the regulations of The Leader and government. North Korea held Kim-Jung II a patron in their life and thank him for their good life-style. Good in the eyes of North Korean citizens but not in the world. With famines, job cuts, rationing of food, disabilities, and less freedom its quite. Most communication devices are cut off from citizens. Life is all doing to harsh times and hoping not to disobey The Leader. Its living "The wonderful World of Malice."

North Korea has one of the lowest standard of healthcare in the world. Availiability of hospials are scarce and small. Though there are hospitals, the standards and qualities are bad.
