If you open the photos in the article on a separate tab and view them fullscreen then you would see what there is actually people on most of the photos. #2 lower left corner #6 lower left corner at least 4 people visible #10 someone walking at the 'south' end of the road, cars; a man at the storefront a bit farther; some people at the crossing and at the other end of the road #11 there is one on the left side #14 around 10 in the middle of the photo, cars and probably people at the farthest end of the road #16 a lot people actually, because it's some celebration, in the middle of the photo; a lot of plain clothes (or dark coloured uniformed) people on the roads (look at the bridge) #17 around 20 people easily distinguishable, clearly some cars at the other end of the road Sure, this is waaaaay less than needed to convey an image of a living city, but as other people say, there is a clear bias for this type of people-less shots at KCNA.
