As reported in the report, “the authorities executed the teens in front of the public and shot them immediately.”

According to the report, “those who watch or distribute South Korean films and dramas, and those who disrupt social order by killing others, will not be forgiven and will be sentenced to the maximum penalty-death.”

As reported earlier, North Korea wants parents to give their children ‘patriotic’ names like ‘Bomb’, ‘Gun’ and ‘Satellite’ to combat ‘soft’ names.

Parents are encouraged to name their children in a patriotic and ideological manner. Kim Jong-un wants the new names to have a consonant at the end.

As part of the tenth death anniversary of former leader Kim Jong-il, North Korea banned its citizens from laughing, shopping or drinking last year.
