（C）ASIAPRESS Following the COVID pandemic, the Kim Jong-un regime made a major shift in domestic economic policy. One key change was strict control over private economic activities. Markets (jangmadang) that had previously supported people’s livelihoods through the trade of all daily necessities—clothing, food, miscellaneous goods, and even grain—were restructured so that business could only be conducted under state registration. Starvation deaths have occurred among urban residents who lost their cash income. How are North Korean residents managing to survive under such controls? We present the voice of a female reporting partner residing in the northern region who participated in a telephone interview in June 2025. 著作権：アジアプレス 映像の無断使用・転載を禁止します。 Footage Copyright : ASIAPRESS The video footage may not be used in any form(copying, selling, renting, distributing, screening, broadcasting, webcasting and debunking) without the prior written consent. 영상 저작권 : 아시아프레스(ASIAPRESS) 본 영상은 사전 서면 동의 없이 어떤 형태로든(복사, 판매, 대여, 배포, 상영, 방송, 웹 등) 사용될 수 없습니다.
