Categories: History

We present you a selection of archival photos of one of the most closed countries in the world — the Democratic People's Republic of Korea. The pictures were taken between 1979 and 1987 by Japanese photojournalist Hiroji Kubota, a full member of the Magnum Agency.

He traveled all over the Asian region of our planet and tried to show it as it is. His works are very honest and interesting, there is no pursuit of precocious sensations in them. And despite the fact that many years have passed since they were made, it is extremely curious to look at them, they tell in detail about the world that the author wanted to show us. Real, one hundred percent journalism. Undoubtedly, this is an example to look up to.
