"Minju Choson" was intended as a North Korean equivalent of the Soviet newspaper "Izvestiya". In the Soviet Union, "Izvestiya" was more focused on economy than "Pravda", which was more propagandist in content. This distinction was reflected in the North Korean papers "Minju Choson" and "Rodong Sinmun". Since 1967 – the year of the Kapsan Faction Incident – the content of "Minju Choson" has been identical in tone to that of "Rodong Sinmun".
