Comments

Null Specter: this is exactly what happens when you prioritize ideology over actual infrastructure
Marek: reminds me of all those times I was in Seoul for the festivals and would walk across that new bridge by the Han River
Yara: I've had my doubts about the 'friendship' name given to their other bridge, but looks like they're taking it literally this time
Jonas: and we're supposed to think this is some kind of 'deepening ties'? the last time i checked, North Korea's still got a human rights crisis on its hands
Mila: what's the practical impact on the average person here?
Frost Cinder: can we talk about the actual architecture of this bridge? or is it just a bland repetition of the Friendship Bridge?
Ruby: I'm still waiting for them to build something that'll actually improve daily life in North Korea
Static Nova: why build something "new" on land already scarred by war?
Umbra Vector: Putin really bringing the charm to foreign diplomacy this time around
Rogue Sparrow: isn't this just a replay of every failed attempt at N. Korea development I've seen over the years?
Onyx Phantom: interesting to see them investing in physical infrastructure, but what's the real impact on trade and relations?
Mirage Talon: strange that they'd prioritize a road bridge over some actual economic reforms, no?
