If you posted this on reddit with the caption "a rainy day in Tokyo" I bed you'd get tons of updoots
City: 😐
City, Japan: 😍
City, China/DPRK: 😡
I feel like the Korean in the image is a dead giveaway but I also don't trust Redditors to be able to tell the differences between languages. Also, text aside, Wonsan does a half-decent impression of a smaller Japanese city in the 80s. If you said this was Nagasaki in 1982 I might believe you. Also, both cities were bombed to smithereens by the U.S. 🙃

Then say South Korea in the 1980s, if you're going to repost it as bait....?
I'm not great at telling apart Asian languages, but one clue about Korean for me are all the circles.
korean, chinese, and japanese are all pretty distinct for reasons just like that, the only tricky part is that japanese uses chinese characters so you've gotta know how to spot the ones that are only in japanese and not get tripped up by the chinese ones lol
Too EZ, Chinese is full on organized Hanzi, Japanese has those abstract squiggles that surround Kanji...

Nah there are too many weebs, if more than like 4 people see the post one of em's gonna notice it's not japanese lol
Red sign literally says Kim Jong Il lol
Dead giveaway indeed, if you can read
It looks like some of the rural areas in the Czech Republic I've been to - Poland probably too, but mountain areas are usually low population density there and I don't really remember the times I was in Małopolska well: was too young.
Which, well, makes sense.
Poland probably too
Yeah, minus the two tall buildings in the back it does look like about every town in Poland in 80's.
Or really, not only in 80's but even now, you just need to add colourful house insulations, usual advertisements and absolute fuckton of cars parked in every concievable space.Don't forget neo-nazi graffiti of the local football ultras and newly built random luxury apartments sticking out like a sore thumb next to buildings that look like they have last been subject to maintenence in 1985.
You should go visit Radom sometime, that's one hell of a city.
Honestly, just post it as "a rainy day in Korea" without specifying North and it'd probably do way better
holy fuck OP that banner on the side of the apartment building looked like an advertisement, don't fucking scare me like that
A clean public walkway with people using it is ominous to burgerlanders that have never seen such a thing.
idiot tankies, it doesn't rain in bad korea - Kim Jong Fat set up massive hollywood rain machines over the city (which is made of carboard) to fake this picture and dupe you personally
Umuulan 'to sa Wonsan,
hindi ka ba nilalamig?
