North Korean Badges Now Include Kim Jong-un’s Face
I guess it was only a matter of time, but now North Koreans get to wear another face on their clothes:
North Korea is printing new badges showing leader Kim Jong-un alongside his grandfather and father.
North Korean officials have so far worn badges with the faces of former leaders Kim Il-sung and Kim Jong-il, but now the personality cult clearly includes the current leader.
A company in Pyongyang’s Pyongchon district is making the badges with the faces of the three Kims on the occasion of the anniversary of the Workers Party on Oct. 10, a source said on Tuesday.
The company is printing the first batch of 3,000 to give out to senior party officials and senior members of the socialist youth league. [Chosun Ilbo]
