2 | ** The movie, which UsefulNotes/NorthKorea's late [[UsefulNotes/TheRulersOfNorthKorea leader]] Kim Jong-il loved and praised, was banned in 2016 under his son Kim Jong-un for being deemed "subversive" somehow, [[http://www.rfa.org/english/news/korea/films-07222016153114.html according to this article]]. |
3 | ** Another possible reason for the ban is the family links of the husband of main actress Mi-hyang Pak with Kim Jong-un's uncle by marriage Jang Song-thaek, who was executed in December 2013 for being a "counter-revolutionary" (or rather for holding too much power over the country for Kim Jong-un's taste). In addition, according to North Korean defector Yeonmi Park, Mi-hyang Pak committed suicide to avoid being sent to prison simply based off said link (since ending up in prison there is akin to a FateWorseThanDeath). |
