North Korea’s Mirim horse riding club launches taxi service

Taxi logo appears to be that of Mirim riding club, not Koryolink as previously thought

The Mirim horse riding club, a Pyongyang-based indoor and outdoor recreational facility, appears to have launched its own taxi service, an October-dated photo obtained by NK News indicates.

The logo of the horse riding club, which opened in 2013 following the major refurbishment of a former military equestrian company, can be clearly seen adjacent to a Korean “taxi” sign mounted on the vehicle’s roof, a picture of a mini-van in Pyongyang shows.
