(ANSA) - BEIJING, 07 JUN - North Korea has launched a war on slang, skinny jeans, haircuts and foreign films, especially South Korean soap operas, through a new law recently passed to neutralize the threats of "reactionary thinking".
Kim Jong-un himself wrote last month a letter to the Youth League, reported by Rodong Sinmun, with the aim of repressing "unpleasant, individualistic and anti-socialist behavior" among young people to stop foreign language, hairstyles and clothes he described as "dangerous "and poisons" for the estate of the company.
Kim has banned skin-tight and practical jeans, such as piercings, considered symbols of the "capitalist lifestyle": it is therefore necessary to do more to prevent the "capitalist culture" from conquering the country, was his warning.
