In North Korea, the communist government claims to place power among its workers, however,…

with the influence of governments, media, and religion on modern society. The song suggests all of these sources of information are biased and self-concerned, thus deceiving the individuals to blindly believe only one point of view.

the concepts between the three spheres namely, politics, government and governance, it is very important to discuss the concept of state because without a state, none of the three spheres mentioned above would exists because they all function within a state.
