Although they were clothed in khaki-colored uniforms, their short hair was savvy, and their smoky eye makeup looked sophisticated.

The Moranbong Band, which debuted in 2012, is the most popular girl group in North Korea. The band has 10 members, and they are all loved for their shocking costumes and western-style music.

In addition, the girls’ short skirts, showing a lot of leg, light and sensual choreography and camera effects all stirred various issues within North Korea.

The band was named by Kim Jong-un himself. Some call them the ‘North Korean Version of Girl’s Generation’.
