Two teenagers have been executed by firing squad in North Korea for watching and distributing South Korean films.
Witnesses were forced to watch as the boys, aged 16 and 17 were killed immediately after being sentenced for the crime on an airfield in Hyesan.
While the executions took place in October, information about their killings only emerged last week.
Another male teenager of similar age was also executed for killing his stepmother - but locals were told the two crimes were "equally evil."
The witnesses forced to witness the executions confirmed the horrific killings to Radio Free Asia.
One said the residents of Hyesan, located to the north of the country near the Chinese border, were gathered in groups on the runway.

What a little man Kim Jong-Un must be. So scared of his own people in case they find out what a lie they have been living since the end of the Korean war.

“Equally evil” crimes…..?
This is horrifying but completely unsurprising.

Fascinating how one evil little fatman can paralyse millions into a state of absolute compliance.

I'm always a bit skeptical about stories out of North Korea. I'm no fan, but I think that there is a very active and creative body of propaganda which had realesed some pretty questionable horror stories in the past. For example, I don't think they ever really stood up that story about FatBoy having his uncle shot with AA weapons.

Maybe it really is a wonderland of equality and riches that the evil west's trying to hide from us in case we want the same.

Jesus Christ….it’s like something from a strange movie. No wonder they punished the teens for watching films about SoKo - they do my want them to see what civilised life looks like.

Maybe 26,000,000 of the 26,106,251 population are living quite happily? Is 'democracy' such a good thing? Take a look around.

Interesting to note that their attempted satellite launch yesterday seems to have failed.
They say they're going to try again, and at some point succeed. But this is there first one. Remember the quality of the US or Russia's first satellites. Early versions take a long time to build, cost a lot, and break often. And they don't have a whole lot of cash or tech expertise. We shouldn't be too worried yet.

Yeah, it's not like anyone else has been able to do this as a matter of routine for the past 70-odd years.

And they probably have a blurry old Nikon camera that a defector brought across the border in 1985 and it has to drop film back down to earth.

That reminds of an interview with an astronaut who'd been the first to go onboard one of the Soyuz space ships. He was shocked to find that they ran computer programmes using a spinning metal disc with, I think, holes punched in it, (might have been paper) instead of whatever the Yanks were using. Magnetic tape presumably.

anyway, back to the 2-year old being imprisoned for the "sins" of the parents. collective guilt. the left in the usa also believes in collective guilt. whites today are as guilty for slavery as the plantation owners hundreds of years ago and must be punished and pay reparations for their sins.

What an idiot.
Though as the convicted sexual preditor you slavishly follow thinks Fat Boy Kim is amazing and has a massive brocrush for, will your fellow cult members take umbridge with you slagging him off like this.
