New conspiracy theory: North Korea is actually quite economically advanced; the reason why it doesn't look that way is that they fully switched to environmentally-friendly LED lighting decades ago, and that type of light doesn't show up on satellite cameras: https://twitter.com/yohaniddawela/status/1727595227987206428

that's actually true, just hasn't happened yet. as in: when they do get lights in the future, there would only be env friendly LED lamps to choose from anyway.

Even better, they read a RAND corporation paper about nuclear powered tunnelling back in the 60's and went to town with it, so they have vast subterranean infra and population centers completely hidden from satellites and remote sensing.

Considering the fact that Kim Jong Un studied in Switzerland, that wouldn't be that far of a fetch. Some recent pics from city center of Pyongyang also show quite modern architecture.
