As foreign information flows into its society through smuggled goods from China and interactions with other states, the North Korean authorities have once again emphasized that people should reject capitalist culture and stick with the North Korean system.

 

A publication of the North Korean cabinet called the Minju Chosun declared in a commentary on Saturday, “We must never allow the scent of capitalism to attract us,” and “We are being penetrated by the imperialists with every kind of rotten bourgeois lifestyle, and the sensitive nature of our young generation is being taken advantage of on a massive scale.”

 

Claiming that as in the former Socialist Bloc, young people had somehow been disabled psychologically by the touch of capitalism, Minju Chosun emphasized, “To devastate our political and ideological position, capitalist elements, including the United States, continue to blow a viciously sweet scent of capitalism into our country. To preserve their fate and guarantee a bright future for the nation. it is vitally important to educate our young so they won't be dazzled by this scent of capitalism.”

The publication further urges, “Once paralyzed by the sweet capitalist wind, they will fall into corruption, ignore the revolution and focus on individual pleasure, so we must awaken them to the enemies’ strategy.”

 

In a September editorial, the Rodong Shinmun also emphasized the ideology of the younger generation. The newspaper asserted that harboring any illusions about capitalism is the same as drinking poison, and that blocking the "capitalist wind" is more important than armed conflict.
