Juche Korea-the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (aka north Korea ) is one of the most misunderstood countries on the earth. This exhibition organised by the UK Korean Friendship Association will give an opportunity to gain a better understanding of Juche Korea. We will be exhibiting some original hand painted posters from the DPRK. Posters in the DPRK has an important social function as well as an artistic and cultural one. Through the posters of the DPRK one can see the society of the DPRK mirrored in them and its values, aims and concerns.
