Listen "Ep. 13: I'll Cry If I Want To"
Episode Synopsis
Hosts Sug Shin and Dan Chung discuss the surprisingly complex topic of crying in North Korea. North Korean men usually display a facade of impervious toughness to the world. But during certain events such as state funerals, they display seemingly excessive amount of tears. Dan schools Sug on the monitoring of such state events by North Korean minders who are writing down each North Korean's emotions during such events. The hosts discuss the "big brother-ness" of it all and wonder how the North Korean government can make anything meaningful out of the millions of pages of data they have on their own citizens. They also discuss the culture behind crying both in the US and Korea. At the end, Sug displays to Dan the full extent of his abilities to cry on demand. Here's a link to the funeral footage Dan and Sug watched during the episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4BDz4rFPTqY Support the show
