As far as I know, I'm the only North Korean on this server. Please message me should you feel like when you would like to play against me happy.png
I am an expatriate living in the EU, and we have internet access in Korea.

Nope. As a South Korean, I know that not a single North Korean is playing on chess.com. If you have a North Korean passport award, that person was not actually North Korean.

I am sure I had one at least once. But that doesn’t necesssarily mean my opponent is a North-Korean citizen. It could very well be a tourist playing from a hotel room.

Everyone could use a north korean flag even if they are living on another continent.
