North Korea publicly executes two teenagers for watching South Korean films: Reports

North Korea executed two teenagers for watching South Korean movies. According to The Mirror, two boys, aged between 16 and 17, were executed in-front of horrified locals on an airfield in Hyesan. The incident took place in October, but information about their killings only emerged last week.

“The authorities put the teen-aged students in front of the public, sentenced them to death, and immediately shot them,” the report said.

“Those who watch or distribute South Korean movies and dramas, and those who disrupt social order by murdering other people, will not be forgiven and will be sentenced to the maximum penalty–death,” the report added.

Witnesses said they were forced to watch the executions and confirmed what had happened in an interview with Radio Free Asia.
