The Khoid Tsenkher Cave is located 28 km away from the center of Mankhan soum, Khovd province in Mongolia. The cave contains about 40,000-year-old petroglyphs. A variety of animals were depicted on the surface of the rocks, such as ostriches, camels, lions, elephants, and buffaloes in red and light brown paints. These images prove the existence of the animals that became extinct a long time ago. These petroglyphs play an important role in the research of the history and culture of the Paleolithic period of the world due to its visual content and design methods. Unfortunately, 64 images and symbols were faded and became unknown due to the wrong action of the people and new carvings have been created on them. The cave is visited by about 5,000 international and domestic tourists a year, but they cannot actually see the main attraction and do not have the chance to understand its great value. Therefore, there is an opportunity to develop tourism by involving local people in the preservation and conservation process of the cave and its historical and cultural monuments.

Most anthropologists are travelers. We often journey away from home to distant places where we conduct our research. In our travels we pass through, or even alight in, major tourist destinations of the world. Although we are travelers with interests in the people and places we visit and ability to adapt ourselves to foreign environments and learn from local people, we do not think of ourselves as tourists. Many of us disdain the tourist and "touristy" places and avoid them, even when we are on vacation. This is perhaps understandable, but unfortunate. We are missing the opportunity to observe and apply our unique perspectives to a significant modern social phenomenon and force for culture change.

For a long time, the world thought that the collapse of the USSR in 1991 would lead to a similar outcome in North Korea. Although the Kim regime suffered harsh economic troubles, it was able to distance itself from communism without facing an ideological crisis and losing mass support. The same core political myths are still in use today. However, after the DPRK left the ideas of socialist realism behind, it has become clearer that the ideology of the country is a political religion. Now, its propaganda is using more supernatural elements than ever before. A good example is the movie The Big-Game Hunter (Maengsu sanyangkkun) in which the Japanese are trying to desacralize Paektu Mountain, but instead experience the fury of the holy mountain in the form of thunderbolts. The movie was produced in 2011 by P’yo Kwang, one of the most successful North Korean directors. It was filmed in the same year Kim Chŏng-ŭn came to power. The aim of the paper is to show the evolution of the DPRK political myth in North Korean cinema, in which The Big-Game Hunter seems to be another step in the process of mythologization. It is crucial to understand how the propaganda works, as it is still largely the cinema that shapes the attitudes and imagination of the people of the DPRK.

General Election is a democratic party held every 5 (five) years. General elections are held to elect state officials from the President, Regional Head and Legislative Members. There are so many people who really want that position because of the huge income, luxurious facilities and high social level. Many people are willing to spend large amounts of money in order to be able to occupy these seats. This is because each candidate must get a large number of people's votes so that the candidates cannot work alone in order to gain votes. And if the election has arrived and the people have chosen, then the legislative candidates will try as soon as possible to find out whether they will be elected or not. The basis for the vote calculation is form C1 which is the result of manual recapitulation at the polling station (polling station). This form is very much even reaching thousands of files.
