The DailyMail article claims a number of myths about DPRK including that blue jeans are censored/banned, citizens are required to have government approved haircuts, women aren’t allowed to wear shorts, dogs banned as pets. The article cites Radio Free Asia and DailyNK, both US government funded. Exactly what you would expect, US funded misinformation.
Since people are commenting on dogs, I found this article from KCNA, news website hosted by DPRK. This article was published October 27, 2023. The national dog breed of DPRK is Phungsan. The article says that it is common for people to raise Phungsan dogs at workplaces, villages, and houses.

Well that sounds like a biased description 🤔
Shit like this is why every European country has like five or more recognized indigenous dog breeds, but other countries
are lucky to have one even though dogs have been raised by basically every single human civilization.
Shiba Inus make this the epitome of the “Place, China” meme but with dogs.
I think that jeans actually are banned, though the rest is obviously false. At least, the tourist videos that generally said “all that stuff is a myth” usually reaffirm the jeans ban thing.
Seems like it’s just blue jeans that they don’t like, a swedish company actually exported black jeans from the DPRK for a time back in the 2000s.
