Being the most prominent visual marker, the village looks prosperous, but in reality, it’s empty being a tool for the 1950s propaganda. The purpose is the encouragement of South Korean defection; furthermore, the intention was to create an image of prosperity and happiness, trying to advertise that people of North Korea are living with high standards and in abundance.
Suppose one person violates the law or is sent to a prison camp. It affects their whole family.
