Are there gay people in North Korea?

And if so, what happens to them when other people find out?

Every week we ask a North Korean your questions, giving you the chance to learn more about the country we know so little about.This week Michael from Phnom Penh asks:I'm just curious as to gay and lesbian life and culture in North Korea. Is there in fact any existence of it?Personally, I never knew anyone who was gay in North Korea, but I’ve heard a lot from grownups about things that happen in the military.Unlike South Korea’s two-year mandatory military service, North Korean men are obligated to serve in the military for 10 long years
