Quiet Opening: North Koreans in a Changing Media Environment
   http://www.intermedia.org/press_releases/A_Quiet_Opening_FINAL.pdf [129]



North Koreans today are learning more about the outside world than at any time since the founding of the country. As the information environment opens, the North Korean government no longer maintains a total monopoly over the information available to the population and, as a result, North Koreans understanding of the world is changing. This report examines the changes occurring in the North Korean information environment today and the significant effects these changes are beginning to have on the North Korean people. This study systematically demonstrates the relationship between North Koreans outside media exposure and more positive perceptions of the outside world.
