People need a government permission to reside in the North Korean capital, Pyongyang. Mostly 

rich and loyal officials are permitted to stay in the capital. Serious punishments are given for unauthorized residence in the capital.

3.THE ELECTION

 As a democratic country, Korea has its elections but the supreme leader is the only candidate in the elections. So the elections really do not make any sense.
