Read Nothing to Envy: Ordinary Lives in North Korea, by Barbara Demick, chapter 3.
In paragraph 11, the author says that Chang-bo had been fighting off doubts about the North Korean government for many years but that recently “those doubts were gelling into outright disbelief.” What textual evidence in paragraphs 11-17 supports this view? How did Chang-bo’s job contribute to his disbelief?
Answer:
Chang-bo´s job as a journalist at the North Hamgyong Provincial Broadcasting Company allowed him to have access to "uncensored news reports from the foreign media" and knowledge about how information was sanitized "for domestic consumption."
Explanation:
This meant that capitalist countries such as South Korea were unfairly portrayed in a bad light, while North Korea was shown as better than it really was.
According to the text Nothing to Envy: Ordinary Lives in North Korea by Barbara Demick, we understand by examining the text that Chang-bo was a journalist at the North Hamgyong Provincial Broadcasting Company.
Because of this affiliation with the above company, he had access to new reports that were uncensored from the foreign media. Uncensored news simply refers to unfiltered, explicit, or raw news.
So Chang-bo also had the privilege of learning about how the news was edited before circulation to the general populace. The uncensored news gave him insights that led him to believe that Asian countries that practiced capitalism were branded badly while their North Korean counterparts enjoyed positive branding. Hence, distorting the true nature of events and history.
For Chang-bo, the fact that information was distorted to this extent was difficult for him to believe.
