If living in a country with no internet access, no television, no alcohol and no music weren't enough, North Korea has also banned Blue Jeans.

Count yourself lucky if you’re not a resident of North Korea, because a lot of things that we take for granted here are privileges denied to many there. People there can’t have an opinion, they can’t drive cars, and they have to choose their haircuts from a list of 28 "allowed" hairstyles.

A recent shocker is the ban of blue jeans, because, they’re a symbol of American imperialism.

A hermit region, the country is closed to the outside world.

Now news comes that blue jeans have been banned. For now, jeans are being sold in two styles- the slim-fit Kara and loose-fit Oke, and are made in black rather than blue denim.

Blue denim is a “symbol of American imperialism” to the North Korean leader, Kim Jong-un and thus he absolutely despises it.

Other than this, practising religion is also considered a taboo and those who practise are tortured. International calls, talking about the government, travelling abroad, pornography, and surfing the internet are among the many things that are banned there.

But what makes North Korea the focal point of all bizarre things? Watch this!
