Before now,
everyone in North Korea had the right to choose their haircuts from a list of
state-approved styles. But now, all university students in the hermit kingdom
will be required to sport the same hairstyle as supreme leader Kim Jong Un, the
BBC reports.
Pyongyang
introduced the new law two weeks ago but is now rolling it out across the
country.
Many people
are not happy with the new law. According to a former Pyongyang resident now
living in China, the Kim Jong Un cut is unpopular because it apparently
resembles the style of Chinese smugglers. “Until the mid-2000s, we called it
the ‘Chinese smuggler haircut,” the source told the Korea Times.
What a
dictator. Shame shame and shame
