Fear & Freedom

JAYU. “the story of the people”

Fear and Freedom is making the game jayu; in means Liberty/Freedom in Korean.

North Koreans are portrayed as victims of propaganda, rather than strong individuals living within the regime.  Jayu is about living in a small North Korean town near the border of China.  The player will experience the unusual regulations of North Korea, and learn how people confront or circumvent these restrictions.

North Korea NGOs from the United States of America and South Korea have been supporting us with information about North Korea.  We want to show North Korean life as it is.  We want to exclude the censorship of North Korea and the patronization of foreign media.
