I have heard that Korean is the hardest language for a native English speaker to learn. Is the Korean the same in the North and the South of the peninsula? As a white American I have visited Iran and it was much better than what it is portrayed in the media. I wonder what the DPRK is really like vs. media portrayal.
No, the Korean in the north has more Chinese influence (for example, look at the numbers used in the North and South). Also this is a bit more arbitrary but obviously the Korean language in the south has much more western influence. But I’m definitely not an expert

+acrazyjew Yes, the language is generally the same, however there are some dialectal differences. I can't say whether the language is as difficult as you say it is, but I do plan to learn it someday regardless.
I should very much love to be able to read the lyrics in English!!
가사가 미친 전체주의 국가구나
Glória ao partido do Trabalho da Coréia!
陣頭にいらっしゃる我らの最高司令官
これぞ北の軍歌って感じが出てていいねぇ

+The B List I have had a lot of luck with Rosetta Stone language learning software. It's worth the price.
acrazyjew It's interesting that you say that, because I've often heard the opposite, but if it works for you, it works for you. Good luck!
+The B List Don't knock it till you've tried it! 😊
