The 2011 KEEP-DPRK delegation wrote a series of reflections on this year’s trip. The reflections are called bojagi. Bojagi is a traditional cloth used to wrap and carry items. In wartime, people would wrap their belongings in a bojagi and carry their possessions on their backs. In this context, bojagi is a short reflection, a portion of the trip now carried in the written word. This year’s pieces were inspired by the changes we saw, especially those related to the economic development of the country.
