Young koreans hold up colored display cards to form a background image for a performance of North Korea's
Mass Games on September 12, 2008. The Mass Games are designed to entertain or celebrate holidays,
and place emphasis on group dynamics rather than individual prowess. This particular show's name is
 "Prosper the Motherland!", dedicated to the 60th Anniversary of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea,
celebrated on September 9th. (? Eric Lafforgue)

I do not know what they do, but when you're in the countryside, you see many soldiers walking... far from anything."

the North Korean town of Sinuiju, in the Chinese border city of Dandong September 12, 2008. Each day,
in warm months, hundreds of Chinese swimmers plunge into the narrow Yalu river which divides their country
from North Korea, with dozens kicking the 500 metres to the opposite side for a rest and a glimpse
of the neighboring, withdrawn communist state. (REUTERS/David Gray) #

Eric Lafforgue: "The highways in North Korea are huge and carless. Planes could land there.
You can even see kids playing in the middle of the road. Security is a major problem
because children and old people are not used to seeing cars, so they cross over the roads at any time,
without watching out for oncoming traffic. The only cars you can see sometimes on highways are
 military ones, and most of them are stopped by the side of road, broken down. Or you can also see
brand new Mercedes cars belonging to the North Korean officials passing by at very high speeds."

North Korea avert the worst food crisis it has faced since the 1990s.

Eric Lafforgue: "Pyongyang view, taken from Yanggakdo hotel. You can find a famous satellite picture
on the net showing a map of the Korean peninsula by night, with a huge difference between the north and south.
In North Korea, there is no public lighting, and people use very low wattage bulbs in their houses.
 
The North Korean capital is as surreal by night as it is by day. Due to the fuel crisis there's hardly any traffic
to be heard after dark, and nightlife is virtually non-existent. Only monuments are lit during local festivities.
 Every hour, on the hour, from 6 am to midnight, loudspeakers blast out a patriotic song. Tourists are
totally forbidden from leaving their hotels to walk around town, even though Pyongyang is safe,
that's the rule." (? Eric Lafforgue) #

 "On Sundays, cars are not allowed in Pyongyang. Only vehicles belonging to the army and government
are allowed on the road. Officials claim that it's to prevent pollution." #

Not only does North Korea stage Mass Games, it also has Mass Dances. Here, a young woman participant is
seen on April 15, 2008. Eric Lafforgue: "More than 100,000 dancers were standing on the giant square.
The audience was invited to join them. The music was performed by a live band. The show lasted for one hour,
then the lights were turned off, and less than 5 minutes the square was empty and everybody
 goes home in the dark streets of Pyongyang."
