North Korea has 12 entries in the public directory and 5 that a browser can open. The 7 in between are worth understanding rather than ignoring: they are largely live stations whose stream addresses were registered over http and never migrated, so they play in a desktop radio client and not in a tab.

Bitrate here clusters around 128 kbps, with 60% of stations at or above the 128 kbps line this site uses as the mark of a stream worth listening to rather than having on.

The listing is entirely MP3 among the entries that state a format. That uniformity is a fingerprint of shared infrastructure rather than of shared taste.

The dial here carries two declared languages, led by Korean at 75% and followed by Russian. The bars below give the full breakdown, which is usually a faster read of who lives somewhere than any paragraph.
