People at home in the evening, Hamhung, North Korea. As I observed the comings and goings of those living in a building on the other side of the hotel where I stayed in Hamhung, I had a sense that I had managed to escape, temporily, the strict rules imposed daily on what I could photograph. For several hours, I peered into the daily life of north koreans preparing dinner, watching Juche TV, hanging their laundry, putting their bike in the living room... These seemingly banal moments are the ones I traveled to the DPRK for, as I wanted to see if I could find slivers of normality untainted by korean propaganda or shaped by western media.
