Yes, due to familial bond and social cohesiveness. They might live in perpetual Hell, but they live in it in a state of togetherness.

@Tatsumi that is exactly how they describe it.

@revenant Thanks for the win.

South Korea is the most unhappy place on the planet, also. They also drink like 10 [don't quote, at least 2-3x] times more than Russia. Overworked and isolated with mental illness neglect. Largest suicide rate in the world. Likely due to all the drinking, imo.

So, it's also not too much of a bar to set.

@revenant Ehh, I had friends stationed in South Korea, as well as my cousin, and I've watched a couple AsianBoss videos on youtube, where North Korean defectors talked about their experiences. That's all. Thank you, though, too. ^^
