$8,000 Defecting Fee
Nope, you don’t need an online college degree to figure out that this fact is highly unconventional. Technically, it is not illegal to defect from North Korea, however, with that being said, it is illegal to defect if you have not paid the price to do so. Kim Jong-Un himself raised the price to defect to a staggering $8,000. As most of the country’s citizens live in poverty, this asking price is far too much to even consider a possibility.

A Black Screen
Yup, North Korea does indeed have computers…however if you look closely, you’ll notice that there is no electricity to power up the computer. This is yet another facade implemented by North Korean leaders as they wish to give off the impression that they’re doing just fine. We’re assuming the photo was snapped by a tourist who was allowed to see people using computers (maybe for an online college degree) but he just wasn’t meant to see the black, empty screen.
