Quite a contrast between the pictures of North Korea and those of South Korea on the same site by Kyoung-jin Yoon.

its from a story in Korea about a turtle told by the sea-God that he should eat a rabbit’s liver so he took the rabbit down under the sea. The rabbit tricked Poseidon though by telling him he had left his liver at home that day so the turtle took the rabbit back up on land where he escaped. Not sure what the message there is or what it has to do with the rules of the road but that’s why you see many similar signs in North Korea - wow I’m sad for knowing that!

The the tortoise and the hare? But why is does bunny appear to be on a crested wave on the turtle’s back? Surely there is a similar bunny/turtle installation at the offices of the OGD. Maybe also at NDC.

I’d have to agree. The turtle is a bit more challenging.

Would anyone care to sex the NK traffic bunny? My fiancee noted that it appears to have breasts.
