I have frequently read news like “North Korean hackers” hacked into a company’s account and stole data, money, etc. In everyone’s impression though, North Korean is a country that has outdated techonology and poor economy development. Their citizens therefore should have bad education.

If someone is moderately intelligent and all they have to do is study IT and computer hacking for 12 hours a day they can get pretty good in just a few months.
Look at how the U.S. Air Force and Navy create decently good 19 year old cyber security experts with just about 4 months of training.

Also I know it can be hard to believe but everything our government tells us is not the truth. We have seen time and time again that they distort the facts. Then we just disregard their talent for it. COINTELPRO is a good example. I’m not defending North Korea or their economy but it’s not as bad as they say.
I’d say that your final sentence is a non sequitur. They can be a poor country and have great education. If someone has me in a chokehold, that doesn’t mean I have asthma.
North Korean propaganda might be stuck in the 90’s but it is 2023 in North Korea in reality just like it is here. North Korea has awful poverty and inequality for an industrialized nation, but it is one. I mean, they build nuclear weapons and ICBMs, so they literally have rocket scientists, and hacking isn’t rocket science.
No, generally everything you hear and think you know about them is a Western Imperialism propaganda Lie
