朝鮮人民的日常生活照片:帶你領略神祕朝鮮

Incredible, haunting images that give a rare glimpse inside the world‘s most secretive regime!

不可思議,令人難忘的圖片提供了一窺世界上最神祕政權的難得機會!

To the rest of the world, North Korea is an enigma - a dictatorship ruled by paranoia, rarely seen orwitnessed by isolated country remains sealed off from foreign eyes behind a thin veil of propaganda, usually involving the latest public appearance from the self-promoting leader, Kim because of that impenetrable exterior, we rarely get much of a sense of what it is like to live under the world's most secretive regime. Sometimes, we can forget that, instead of a spectacle of oppressive h Korea is a nation of real people, going about their everyday business.

Now these Instagram photos, taken by the Associated Press's chief Asia photographer, David Guttenfelder, have given a remarkably rare glimpse into the ordinary lives of those living under the Kim g a phone camera, the award-winning photographer has taken a series of intimate shots to post onto the photo-sharing app, which gradually chip away beneath the state's secretive these photos, we see seamstresses in their factory, soldiers working on a ski slope construction and masked employees hard at work in a seafood factory. We also see the daily propaganda that the country's residents face on a daily basis - including one colourful image showing child soldiers plastered onto the wall of kindergarten school.

對世界上其他國家來說，朝鮮就是個謎——一個外人難得一見的偏執狂控治下的獨裁政體。這個孤立的國家仍然被一層薄薄的宣傳面紗隔離於外國人的視線之外，這些宣傳通常涉及自我推銷的領袖金正恩的最新公開露面。正因爲不能衝破隔離,我們很少能夠感受到生活在世界上最神祕的政權下是什麼感覺。有時,我們會忘記朝鮮是一個由真實的人的組成的國家，他們爲自己的事情而奔波，而不是隻有壓迫的景象。現在這些由美聯社的亞洲首席攝影師David Guttenfelder拍攝的Instagram照片，提供了一次非常難得的機會，能一窺金氏王朝統治下普通朝鮮人的生活。這個一流的攝影師使用手機攝像頭近距離拍攝了一組照片，並把他們發佈到這個照片共享應用上，這逐漸鑿開了封鎖，讓我們瞭解到這個國家的神祕面貌。在這些照片中，我們能看到工廠中工作的女裁縫，建設滑雪場的士兵和在海鮮食品製作工廠努力工作的戴口罩的員工。我們也看到了這個國家的人民每天接受的日常宣傳，包括幼兒園牆上張貼的一幅畫着童兵的彩色畫。
