North Korea officially banned Christmas in 2016, but the repressive Communist regime keeps finding new ways to dampen the Christmas spirit.
As AOL reports, the Kim Jong Un’s recent edict to ban any “gatherings that involve alcohol and singing” will certainly affect any residual holiday merrymaking.
The news of North Korea’s latest assault on fun came courtesy of South Korea’s National Intelligence Service. The regime justified the move saying participants may transmit or receive forbidden messages of political opposition while they indulge in unrestrained Christmas caroling.
Kim is apparently worried that economic sanctions aimed at North Korea are driving more of the population into open rebellion.
