‘Squid Game’ smuggler set to die by firing squad in North Korea: report

A smuggler who sold copies of Netflix’s smash hit series “Squid Game” in North Korea has been sentenced to death by firing squad, according to a report.

The man allegedly smuggled copies of the Korean-language show on USB drives from China into North Korea, where seven high school students were caught watching the footage, sources told Radio Free Asia.

A student who bought one of the flash drives received a life sentence, while six others who watched the footage have been sentenced to five years of hard labor. Teachers and administrators at the school were also fired or face forced labor in remote mines, sources told the outlet.

Radio Free Asia reported last week that the hit series had made its way in the reclusive hermit kingdom despite efforts by North Korean authorities to keep it out of the country, where foreign media is banned.

At least he didn’t smuggle in the latest version of “Red Dawn”. They’d probably draw and quarter him.

The show is apparently a Korean version of Hunger Games. Or the 1987 movie ‘The Running Man’ .

Good God...you can be executed in NK for having the wrong haircut. Why is a surprise that they execute subversives who play The Squid Game?

Not sure what the Squid game is, but death penalty for a T.V. program? Good grief! No value on human life in NK.

We kinda laugh at how stupid this sounds but consider:

You must be "vaccinated" to work or travel per the Bidenettes.

There is attempted public shaming of those who question the "vaccine" and its effectiveness.

In Australia they're rounding folks up who haven't been "vaccinated" and taking them to "temporary" camps.

We're marching down that road.

What's the incentive for the teachers to turn in the students?

This sounds a lot like what some leftist professors and media types in this country are calling for to happen to Republicans and conservatives.

I sometimes wonder why people in NK don’t just rise up and reject these tyrants.

Then I’ll see videos of dear leader Kim in a gathering and people wildly, hypnotically clapping, crying, laughing as if under some sort of trance.

Decades of brain warshing I suppose. Perhaps that’s what the globalist are attempting through this whole Covid crap.

Sounds like something that should catch on here for dealing with the demo-commies and all their enablers.
