A source familiar with the inner workings of the power game inside North Korea revealed to Liberty Korea Post recently that Kim Young-chol’s purge had been in the works for some time now. He said, “Kim Young-chol’s purge will be carried out quietly the same way Kim Won-hong and Hwang Byung-so’s purges were handled.” The source added, “Kim Young-chol was sacked from his post at the Unification Front Ministry due to his embezzlement of funds from Office 39, and his failures in connection with the Hanoi summit. But he was not completely cut off from the Unification Front Ministry. He managed to h

North Korean famine is in the offing again. Liberty Korea Post has learned that people are dying of hunger in the northern region, namely HamKyungBukdo, HamKyungNamdo, and YangGangdo. Kim Jong-un had issued a handwritten letter last year prior to PyeongChang Winter Olympics claimingthat “There will be no Arduous March the second time.”It seems that was a lie. Moreover, he had issued an order prior to his trip to Hanoi for the summit with Trump to get ready the food rationing centers. However, what he had coined as "Hanoi showdown" turned out to be "Hanoi bust." People are upset. The Workers
Sources inside North Korea informed Liberty Korea Post about death cases due to starvation in the northern region, HamKyungNamdo, HamKyungBukdo, and YangGangdo. “Death cases have been reported early April in those provinces.” A source in YangGangdo said, “Farms in YangGangdo suffered tremendously last year because of the reservoir for SamSu power plant.

The international press, in general, are reporting that the failure of the Hanoi summit was due to DPRK’s lack of intent to denuclearize. Kim’s proposal to disable the parts of the Yongbyon nuclear facility did not impress Trump. Some cadres in Pyongyang have other thoughts. They suspect that the US intelligence had found out that North Korean denuclearization was a smokescreen all along through its communication line inside North Korea. The Party Information department is headed by Kim Yo-jong, Kim Jong-un’s sister, responsible for distributing Kim Jong-un’s thoughts and intentions to elites
Lately, I am getting a lot of questions about Kim Han-sol [son of Kim Jong-nam who had been assassinated in Kuala Lumpur airport] and the latest talk about the newly founded “exile government of North Korea.”As a defector who detests the Kim dictatorship of North Korea, I have no reason to harbor ill thoughts about the exile government established to fight the regime. I don’t know what other defectors think about the exile government, but I speak my mind when it comes to things like this.The exile government group calls itself “Cheollima Civil Defense,” and I have a problem with the way they a

The gas is running at 11.5 Yuan/kg ($4.96/gal) and the diesel is 7
North Korean authorities are banning the sale of popular dessert items in jangmadang [marketplace], causing folks to wonder about the sudden measure by the Party. A correspondent inside North Korea said, “All of a sudden, the [cops] are cracking down on food items made look like a nuke, a nitrogen bomb, or a missile. They are not letting the merchants display. They have prohibited their sale, and people are grumbling a lot.” “People made these sweets and sold them at jangmadang starting last summer. They were very popular. The nuke candy was a lollipop on a plastic stick and it was labeled Kum
