 Officials in Seoul indicated the meeting appeared to indicate North Korea's acknowledgment of serious food shortages. Last month, the US-based 38 North Project, which monitors north korea, reported that north korea is facing its worst food shortage since the famine of the 1990s, with human food availability severely reduced. north korea is subject to international sanctions over its nuclear weapons and ballistic missile programs, and the situation has reportedly worsened in recent years due to a self-imposed lockdown aimed at curbing Covid-19 on its limited border trade. According to UN statistics, 40 percent of the North Korean population is suffering from malnutrition. In this situation, as the food shortage has increased manifold, social activists have expressed regret about the condition of the people of the country.
