North vs South Korea: What Makes These Neighbors So Different?

Fresh Produce

There’s a shortage of fruits and vegetables due to poor agricultural practices and limited resources in the North. This scarcity drives people to hunt frogs and turtles for additional protein. In contrast, South Korea’s markets overflow with fresh produce, thanks to advanced farming techniques and global trade.

Street food in the South includes delights like tteokbokki (spicy rice cakes) and kimbap (seaweed rice rolls). In North Korea, street food is less varied, often limited to simple snacks. It struggles with scarcity while the South enjoys culinary abundance.
