The language spoken in North Korea is Korean but it is a different dialect than the language spoken in Seoul for instance.

Many North Koreans who have defected to South Korea have had to take brush up courses on the dialect of Korean spoken in Seoul, South Korea. As another example Konglish, the use of English using the Korean phonetic alphabet, is not practised in North Korea though it is widely used in Seoul, South Korea.

Some Koreans suggest the North Koreans have stayed closer to the original language, because the communists originally attracted many of the best language scholars, and at that time North Korea was where the wealth and power was.
