That photo is from a story in the Chinese military review about a chinese Su-27 UBK pilot, that probably is photo of him with a J3-1 as you say.
I am clueless about modern jets.

The photo above is not Korean, but the Chinese pilot who died in the SU-27UBK crash in 2013.

Sorry, I think I was wrong. I think due shape of the air intake is looks like Su-27 or 35, or one of its Chinese versions.
It does not matter in this case. Thank you for the rare photos of Chinese and Korean jackets.
