In this Thursday, Jan. 19, 2012 photo, people make their way around the Kwangbok Area shopping center to buy groceries, clothing, and household goods in Pyongyang, North Korea. A new culture of commerce is springing up, with China as its inspiration and source. The new consumerism is part of a campaign launched three years ago to build up the economy, and so the image of new leader Kim Jong Un. (AP Photo/David Guttenfelder)
