Ask A North Korean Ask a North Korean: Do North Koreans like reading books?"Among the books I read in North Korea, Sherlock Holmes was my favorite" Every week, we ask a North Korean your questions, giving you the chance to learn more about the country we know so little about.

Do many people read them? © Korea Risk Group. All rights reserved. |
