Yes, by 1949, North Korea had established concentration camps, known as political prison camps or gulags, for the detention of perceived political enemies and dissidents. These camps were part of the broader repressive regime under Kim Il-sung, aimed at consolidating power and eliminating opposition. The conditions in these camps were often brutal, with forced labor, starvation, and severe punishment for inmates. The legacy of these camps continues to impact North Korean society today.
