North Korean "ghost ships", a mysterious phenomenon where abandoned, unmanned vessels are discovered adrift off the coast of Japan and elsewhere, have puzzled authorities for years. These ghost ships, often found with bodies of deceased crew members, have raised speculations about their origins and the circumstances surrounding their abandonment.

The presence of these ghost ships serves as a somber reminder of the often-harsh realities faced by North Korean citizens and the complexities surrounding the secretive nation.
