North Korea is so out of touch, the country’s dictator has taken on time-old western fashion no-nos.
Kim Jong-un was quoted in the Rondong Sinmun, the official newspaper of the Central Committee of the Workers’ Party of Korea, claiming that the leader feared “decadent” western styles.
The leader targeted ripped jeans, mullet hairstyles and other fashion relics that would seem at home on a 38 Special album cover. Skinny jeans are also on the no-no list.
According to Yahoo! News, the editorial issued a stark warning.
“History teaches us a crucial lesson that a country can become vulnerable and eventually collapse like a damp wall regardless of its economic and defence power if we do not hold on to our own lifestyle,” the Rondong Sinmun editorial said.
“We must be wary of even the slightest sign of the capitalistic lifestyle and fight to get rid of them.”
North Korea also punishes the possession of South Korean media.
