KCNA Watch is an aggregator of official DPRK media output, which updates in real time.
Due to regular server outages and multiple occasions malicious scripts have been found on official DPRK media sites, KCNA Watch mirrors all DPRK media for easy access and browsing.
Full copies of articles and PDFs are also hosted here due to the DPRK government’s regular deletion and editing of archived materials.
Furthermore, unlike many official DPRK media sites, KCNA Watch allows for articles to be shared in realtime via social media, with permalinks that can be cited in academic journals.
Due to a technical error, some content published by Korea Media Co., Ltd (KPM) was temporarily accessible on this website during July 2024. These KPM-branded files have since been removed and we apologize for the mistake.
