Uriminzokkiri – State Media Monitor

Uriminzokkiri (우리민족끼리), loosely translating as “Our Nation Together”, was one of North Korea’s premier online propaganda portals. Launched in 2003 from a Shanghai-based server, it was among Pyongyang’s first ventures into external web media. The platform primarily aggregated content from state sources—most notably the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA)—and served that content in multiple languages, including Korean, English, Chinese, Japanese, and Russian.

In a sweeping media shift, coinciding with Kim Jong Un’s call for a “fundamental turnaround” in inter-Korean policy, Uriminzokkiri went offline on 11 January 2024, alongside other DPRK propaganda outlets. As of mid-2025, it remains inactive.
