North Korea’s main state-run television channel aired a short film meant to discourage video game addiction and promote science and technology. The film is part of the first new set of live-action dramas broadcast in over two years. The main character is depicted as an unprepared worker as well as a bad husband, playing games in his factory’s computer lab and on his phone at the dinner table. At the end of the 12-minute film, the main character realizes that if he had used his factory’s sci-tech computer lab for learning instead of playing games, he could have solved major issues on his own and become a better worker and citizen.
