(Reference Photo) Slightly built soldiers in unbuttoned uniforms wander the street. Their unwashed pants are caked with dirt. Taken at South Pyongan Province in July 2011 by Koo Gwang-ho (ASIAPRESS)

I’ve been told that this photo shows female soldiers weeping, moved by Kim Jong-un’s visit. He uses pictures like this quite often. Quoted from the photo of April 24, 2014 by Korean Central News Agency
