North Korea Prevents Hair Loss

So the North Korean Regime Stability Assessment by the government-run Korea Institute for National Unification released a report on the “hidden” side of North Korea. While it talks about the usual corruption and break down of rule of law, it contains this last tidbit about living in the worker’s paradise.

“Life in North Korea is less stressful as everyone is poor. So there are less bald people,” the defector said.

That’s nice. But I cannot really think of anyone that would give up his freedom and his worldly possessions for a full head of hair. If North Korea ever decides to do some open-air nuclear tests, though, even that claim will be bunk.
