North Korean men have been ordered to get the same haircut as leader Kim Jong-un
Pyongyang: North Korean men have been ordered to get the same haircut as leader Kim Jong-un.

“Until the mid-2000s, we called it the Chinese smuggler haircut,” he said.
North Korea’s state TV had previously launched a campaign against long hair, called ‘Let us trim our hair in accordance with the Socialist lifestyle’.
