Yes, they are Potemkin parties that are allowed to exist purely for show. None of them have ever voted against the ruling Workers' Party of Korea in all their history. (and every once in a while, they'd kill a few of these minor party members just to make sure no one gets too comfortable).

The articles for these parties literally refer to them being "awarded" their seats in the Congress.

Do they actually kill them? What’s the point of it’s a show party and who would ever want to join it?
