Propaganda leaflets dropped by Ukrainian drones over places where North Korean soldiers are hiding or moving in the Kursk region.
As we can see, Ukrainian UAV operators are aiming not only at the heads of DPRK mercenaries, but also at their new phobias - in the form of drones.
At the same time, giving them a choice: to surrender, escape from this horror and get a chance at a new life, or to die ingloriously and inevitably from an FPV drone or cluster munition.
Translation of the inscription: “Don’t die in vain! Surrender is the way to survive.”
The year is 2038. Korean-Ukrainian food is a hit new global phenomenon, drawing tourism to the region of “Little Korea” in Ukraine where the sounds of accordion music fills the air and you can pose to have a statuette made. The people live in peace since they defected from the Russian invaders en masse.
I dont know but north korea openly sending their troops to help russians seems a bit unfair. EU time to wake up!
Sadly, they are not proper merceneries. A mercenary fights for money, but those guys probably know their families will be repressed if they surrender.
If I was the developer of the propaganda leaflet, I would add one sentence (after double-checking with a competent social engineer):
- “you get a new identity, at home they will think you died”
AFAIK Russia doesn’t count their dead soldiers very carefully so it is quite likely that they will label everyone as dead when they go missing.
This is a very good example of something that i identify as 100% propaganda but still agree with. Dont die in vain, surrender. Another pointless fucking massacre russia started.
Dont die in vain, surrender.
They won’t. The ones with families will likely rather die than surrender and I’d bet my cat that they only picked North Koreans with families. “Treacherous” North Koreans will have their entire families put in death camps.
Inb4 the tankies denying that such a thing exists.
Removed by mod
The families of North Korean defectors get sent to internment camps (this is a fact). OP is saying tankies deny this (this is a fact).
True, but if your squad dies and there’s no one to account for you, get the fuck out. No one will know you aren’t one of the mangled corpses. Start new, and live.
Well now i dont just want kim to die but i want him to suffer a horrible death
up to eight generations
extends to children born in prison
So there’s like some kids being born on those camps who get told they’re they’re because great-great-great-great-great-grandpa was a political enemy of the government.
I lean not yet three aren’t, because NK isn’t that old yet, but…
Ah…
…well, if they do surrender at least they wouldn’t get sent back to north koreaa
Bad choice for fanatics. Can’t they drop something that makes it obvious how their regime abused them, then offer them better living conditions?
Kim asks you to surrender!
I like that they used the old Communist style of esthetic to make it relatable to the Korean. Wonder what the art style is called
Socialist Realism?
I was gonna say brutalist stencil style
That stuff is huge over there. They have art factories for producing these collosal bronze sculptures in the style
“I have only potato stamps to print hundreds of these and I don’t want to be sent to gulag”
I think the should also drop usb sticks with libraries full of basic facts that NK soldiers may have never seen.
Perhaps occasionally a cheap e-reader as well. Can’t inform them when theyre in NK, but now that they’re there and youre already dropping leaflets, might be useful to try to deprogram them as well.

basic factspornPerhaps occasionally
a cheap e-reader50 gallon drums of hard alcohol.If they don’t get seduced into surrendering, they have a higher chance of getting caught with their pants down… Regardless, I see it as a great way to cause confusion and disorder, anyway.
Or spray almost pure LSD solution over their position and watch the mayhem from a distance which blasting the area with porn noises.

Well yes, if the logistics are robust enough, that would be preferable.
Edit but like genuinely the history of democracy and revolutions and whatnot would prolly be good to add for some post-wank reading material to spur on rebellious thought, even for people who don’t surrender. inception
Cram as much porn into old smartphones and drop those.
Since porn is pretty quickly produced, we need to get a new sub category of porn where Western actors teach democratic history while having orgies
Finally, I can use my Sexy Ben Franklin At the Beach cosplay for good and not evil.
I hate this attitude of superiority like they don’t know what the fuck’s going on. They’re living it, bro.
What the fuck have you’ve been smoking?
North Koreans have very limited knowledge of the outside world. They’re not entirely ignorant of it.
But remember that less than 100 years ago Europe was manipulated with hateful propaganda to the extent it was.
Remember that even currently, with access to free interet, there are people who still refuse basic facts like the Earth not being flat.
And you don’t think North Koreans may have been manipulated into thinking that we aren’t actually “free western democracies”, but evil monsters who rape babies while lying about “respecting human rights”.
Like it is exceedingly fucking arrogant of you to assume that because “they’re living it bro” that they knows what’s going on. Like saying that if a woman is in a relationship where she gets beaten and raped that they chose to do that and that “they’d know where to get help if they wanted it.”
What the fuck is wrong in dropping in information about the basic tenets of what we westerners claim to base our values on; valuing human rights in general, freedom, equal rights, democracy?
Have any North Korean soldiers surrendered or allowed themselves to be taken prisoner? I recall that there was a heavily wounded soldier who was captured but later died of his wounds, but I haven’t heard about any other such incidents.
I believe most of em are so effectively brainwashed/family threatened that they put a grenade under their chin.
Imagine traveling to another country to help the invading force try to capture it…
As far as I’m currently aware the NK meat shields are only deployed in the Kursk Oblast.
Oh, I thought they were in Ukraine.
There was some talk about it a while back. But I haven’t seen any evidence of it yet.
One of the captured NK soldiers said he thought he was going to Russia for training.
Oof these are genuinely terryfying looking images, pretty effective propaganda
I like the artstyle
I don’t think they will consider surrendering to a
packflight of drones a good idea.Consider this. A drone you didn’t spot drops this on your feet.
Next drone might drop a grenade.
I would surrender.
Yes. The protocol of “how to surrender” would also be useful to add.
Obviously, one cannot surrender to an FPV drone - it doesn’t have enough battery for the pilot to check if one follows through with the promise.
Throwing down all weapons, raising a white cloth and walking towards the opposing side might be a good enough signal for the pilot however - they might go looking for another target before the battery runs out.
For the leaflet to achieve results, it must lay out a good method of how to surrender. And that’s a lot easier with Russians since they have a language which Ukrainians understand.
To Russians, one can write “go to frequency X MHz, drop encryption and negotiate surrender” or “go to Telegram channel X to arrange surrender” but no such hope with North Koreans.
Where can I get the t-shirt?
Or posters? That’s a hell of a conversation piece once it’s placed in a living room lol.
Those are dope they should sell them
Just traduce some social welfare and asylum information posters from the rest of Europe into North Korean.
