A group of soldiers wait at a bus stop. It is estimated that North Korea has the fourth largest army in the world with 1.21 million soldiers. If the number is correct, it means one in 25 North Koreans is employed by the military. It is not allowed to photograph the military in North Korea. The photo was taken in hiding with a small camera under one of the few walks, we were allowed to make in the capital. (Photo by Peter Hove Olesen)
