It might be better if the title were this line from the subtitle:
A brief analysis of gender distribution in visual representations of everyday life in North Korea
The actual title gave me the impression this was a run of the mill, shallow complaint about sexism (with, possibly, some ugly politics thrown in to boot). It took me a while to get curious about it based on other cues that this might not be the case. This piece is interesting for reasons having nothing to do with the sexism angle. It is a rich piece about history, culture, AI and possibly other things, given that I don't have time to read all the way through it at this time.
