The Clean Bear

The Clean Bear

Compared to the western world, amusement park decorations in North Korea might seem a bit...out of place. The interesting thing is that, it's not just amusement parks where you'll find these kinds of decorations. I've seen this style of random animals used as decoration in front of hotels and also, somewhat more appropriately, at playgrounds.

I'm not sure what joy a child derives from seeing a colorful statue of a bear at an amusement park, but I guess it's better than nothing. It looks like this bear is busy cleaning though. Someone got the short end of the stick at the fun fair, and it seems it was this bear.
