North Korea’s little vlogger makes South Korea nervous
According to Kyungnam University professor Lee Woo Young who studies North Korea, the country is developing a propaganda strategy to make it more relevant and interesting by following global trends.
Previously, the North Korean government spread its political ideology through the YouTube channels ‘DPRK Today’ and ‘Red Star TV’. However, both channels have been removed for violating YouTube’s community guidelines.
