Since North Korean leader Kim Jong-un announced the country’s shift in focus from military power to economic development in April, Kim has been photographed in several production facilities throughout the country to inspect operations and product quality. Indeed, recently released photographs of North Korean products reveal major changes in production presentation and design. Packaging has become more colorful, the designs more refined. The above images show a beer cap, beverage bottles, snacks and candy produced in North Korea. (Lee Jeong-a, staff photographer)
