The censoring is said to be linked to Kim Jong Un’s regime’s efforts to restrict Western fashion and culture in North Korea, NKNews reports.
Blue jeans are said to be a sign of the West, according to the outlet, and have been essentially banned since the 1990s.
… What the fuck? Do they only wear cargo pants or something?
I wonder if that’s an attempt at hiding his fat chicken thighs…
Pants are overrated anyway
I for one only wear kilts like a civilized man.
I hang dong.
THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE
Do you really not know any leg-wear besides jeans and cargo pants? Lol
Those are literally the two types of pant
Is this some kind of joke or reference to something? Lol
Only time will tell my friend, but we all put pant on the same way: one leg time
What else are you gonna wear in a casual situation? Khakis, chinos? Most casual pants are made out of jeans material, blue no less.
Khakis and chinos look like pretty regular trousers without being jeans or cargo pants
And they’re also more comfortable. As a jeans + t-shirt 99% of the time type of guy, I’ve been slowly phasing the jeans out as I’m buying more and more chinos and other types of “fancier” but more importantly more comfortable pants.
Next time I’m feeling useless, I’ll remember that it’s somebody’s job to blur out blue jeans for North Korean television. Sucks that a frame of the forbidden fabric could land multiple generations of their family in prison for life though, bit of a downer.
This is despite the country briefly exporting designer jeans to Sweden.
The Onion rarely gets better than this
Those Koreans must be so confused. First there is something so nice and wholesome as British gardening shows and then the pants get censored? Wtf is going on in UK? Anyway pass the meth pipe please.
Alan Titchmarsh must have a hell of a hog for them to just say, “Fuck it, just blur his entire bottom half and be done with it.”
I walked into Alan Titchmarsh once, as in, literally. That’s all I’ve got to say, really.
I once walked into Walk off the Earth literally! I don’t get to say that often, so I appreciate your desire to spread your story.
I was somehow expecting something that might be arguably visually offensive in some way - Matthew Lesko at minimum.
Not just plain ol’ jeans…
Blue Jeans
Alan’s got blue jeans
Like a clear, blue sky
Watchin’ over me…Bloody North Korean pirates…
