North Korea has strict dress codes. Jeans have to be black because blue denim is seen as a symbol of America, an enemy of the state and the people. In addition, skirts must be knee-length. Also, men’s hair must be short and dyed hair is not permitted. Bright colors, high heels, earrings and any kind of tight clothing were almost never seen because of the fashion police patrolling the streets. But recently you see more of this fashion.
In North Korea, breaking the dress code is a crime. Members of the Kim Il Sung Socialist Youth League, enforce these dress codes. Punishments for breaking the dress codes include public shaming, self-criticism sessions and in extreme cases a period in a labor camp. Recently, people have been breaking the rules,
The past 3 rulers of North Korea are the perfect model for a ruler that successfully changed the society to glorify them. By using media, massive military, and fundamentally changing education, they developed a personality cult. Approximately 70 years after the start of the rule, North Korea has become a nation that is polarized from western, developed countries. Kim Jong Un has also differentiated from other rulers by also developing nuclear missiles that are banned lawfully and also morally by the world. Kim Jong Un is similar to the Islamic State in that he created a society that is nonconforming compared to the global society, while he used conformity as a tool to rule the people. All of the actions made by the Kim dynasty are done to gain
Varying Issues Corresponding to the School Dress Code Numerous cases have been presented and highlighted in the media based off of accounts from angered parents and students protesting the school dress code. Multiple reports are taken from females who experience the shorter end of the stick due to increased fashion interests and sexist mindsets of their school staff. Shame suits are humiliating outfits that those who break the rules must wear as a form of punishment, most of the time these consist of extremely unflattering clothes that have written phrases on them indicating that their appearance is due to their violation of the school rules. Punishments indicated a risk to the violators education caused by missed classes. Few in society do approve of the dress code as it controls female students’ modesty, banishes distraction, and preserves the professional atmosphere inside a school.
I disagree with the school dress code because it doesn't allow people to express themselves, people can't dress for the weather, and it doesn't let people choose how they want to look because it's supposedly a distraction. The dress code is "The bottom of your shirt must at least meet the top of your pants or shorts, and undergarments should not be exposed. There must be a substantial covering over both shoulders. See-through clothing or clothing that is so very tight that it draws attention to oneself are also unacceptable. Shorts/skirts must have at least a 4" inseam."
School is in the 'business' of learning. School is the place where the next lawyers, bankers, CPA's and Doctors are given the fundamentals of working in this economy. One of the basics of our culture in the working world is conservative dressing, dress code, or even uniforms. What is wrong with sending our kids the message that they are in 'the business of learning' by enforcing dress codes?
Dress codes regulate what can be worn in certain places, such as schools and facilities. These codes are controversial where ever they are enforced. People tend to think that the government does not have the power to tell them they cannot wear certain articles of clothing and the fact that some schools do it can throw people into a fit. Some people believe that dress codes stifle personal expression, that a dress code is the same thing as a uniform. Many people do not remember that individualism goes beyond clothes, and that a dress code will help kids to be more than the clothes they have or do not have. Dress codes allow students to set themselves apart from others by their actions not their appearance.
When someone hears about North Korea, most of the time, they might automatically think of the sadistic, manipulative regime that brainwashes its people. After the Korean War ended, North Korea has become the the most isolated, secretive country in the world (Cripps). However, as of 2010, North Korea has changed its policy to allow foreigners to visit in guided tours (Cripps). When the hermit nation opened the doors to travelers and foreign investments, cartoonist Guy Delisle became one of the few people to witness the life inside of Pyongyang when he was assigned to oversee the production of a cartoon in a North Korean animation studio. The graphic novel he produced as a result of his visit documents his experiences and provides a rare glimpse behind the
Kim Jong Un, notoriously known as the supreme leader of North Korea inculcate his intentions into his citizens through means of stripping their freedom away, as stated, “Under the rule of Kim Jong-Un, North Korea remains among the world’s most repressive countries. All basic freedoms have been severely restricted under the Kim family’s political dynasty… North Korea operates secretive prison camps where perceived opponents of the government are sent to face torture and abuse, starvation rations, and forced labor. Fear of collective punishment is used to silence dissent. There is no independent media, functioning civil society, or religious freedom” (hrw.org). Kim Jong-Un does not want any of his citizens to go against the regime so he restricted any freedom including the freedom of speech, but those who do were quickly executed to hide the truth so no one from the outside world will know any knowledge of the isolated country.
Although the people in Korea are not able to wear certain clothes, have certain haircuts, and more because of their customs and beliefs, and some governments abuse their power and provoke their citizen’s rights. Such as the citizens in Korea and the “middle eastern” areas of Asia and Europe, and they can not wear certain clothes, and have certain haircuts, and this is also repeated in the story of “Nothing to Envy: Ordinary Lives in North Korea”, and for example in North Korea there is not an independent judicial system, and plus they religious freedom does not exist, and more. However that government has not had much success even when not in control, but from the main standpoint is that other governments have succeeded with citizen opinions and setting limits, such as the constitution of the United

Everyone is unique in their own way so a society where people are sitting in a room and everyone is wearing the same clothes, same shoes, same hairstyle, and basically the same of everything would never work. A world where everyone has no individuality and no unique personality. It’s like a big robot factory and every robot is built the same way. Similar to a daily life in North Korea. People would think that since there are no differences, people won’t be able to bully each other and there would be no judgements. A world like that means no individuality, no expression, no fun, no talent, no inventions, and no beauty.

North Korea is, for the 13th consecutive year, ranked as the number one most hostile country towards Christians and other religious groups. Kim Jong-Un, as well as the other dictators before and after him, are worshiped almost like if they were gods, so really any other religious groups are forbidden. North Korea describes itself as an atheist nation that practices traditional beliefs, which negates the right for religious

Some schools are more relaxed than others; however, they all share the common theme of regulating what students can and cannot wear during the school day.

The overwhelming increase in dress code violations has brought to light another issue associated with the codes: sexism.
