    I've heard Pyongyang has slightly improved since this was shot, but is still broadly awful. Everyone still looks miserable and stick thin even if the fashions have slightly improved. But my God, those construction sites look absolutely terrifying. They have no equipment and are doing everything by hand, and the buildings aren't even straight or sticking together properly. Looks like they've just slapped stuff on the bricks like it's a medieval mud hut. No wonder these buildings collapse and people die. The construction workers are also wearing military caps.

    Plenty of apartments but no ground floor shops. I was in communist Bulgaria and the apartment buildings had shops which sold coffee and in the doorways to the balconies there were foot powered sewing machines. There is nothing on the balconies. No flowers. People there go into parks and collect grass, maybe to feed rabbits for food.

    • @ufodeath
      @ufodeath 8 лет назад

      LemThurdy420 You are subtly acting argumentative and confrontational through your sarcasm simply because I was making an observation. In my experience, this is a sign of a smarter-than-thou sarcastic attitude, and probably hints at an arrogant personality. You can't take a simple observation without feeling like its an attack to your personal views can you? I was not proving anything else other than making an observation. However, you seem to have a lot of bold claims about it revealed through your sarcasm. Have you ever seen any videos of a news correspondent walk into those buildings in a town just like that in North Korea? North Korea has a lot of towns and a big population, It cannot afford to make every single damn town along the road side in the heart of the country be "fake" towns. Even you should realize how absurdly ridiculous this would be, to invest so much effort into buildings thousands of towns, and yet have all of them be fake. China built a lot of empty pre-planned towns, but those aren't fake, they planned them out for the future. For you to be so sure of it being a fake town, without having any evidence to back up your sarcasm, means you are talking straight out of your biased ass by claiming they are 'dark and empty'. All said, It seems clear that they can at least build relatively modern infrastructure, even while having minimal trade options. They have admitted their power issues, and pointed to the fact that they cannot trade for oil. I believe this is probably the reason they have resorted to building nuclear power plants.

      it's a countryside village LOOOL. what do you expect? a car? electricity 24/7 ? ppfffft. even when you go wandering around at south korea's countryside, you will see the same thing - every countryside are mostly quiet and cold. have you never seen a countryside in your lifetime? jeez. so tacky. as for car, only high officials & expatriats have it. you think their citizens are all rich so they can have it, huh? they spent money only for living. but let's take the positive effect, there are no polutions and the air is fresh. electricity? they do have it, but they have a limit usage. for those living outside pyongyang, the electricity will be cut off after certain time - because they dont have much electrical source. you know. i'm living in a country that much developing than NK, but still today, there is so many countryside that doesn't have electricity. you are just the same like other people, fooling yourself on western propaganda. jfc.

    Well, this is by no means an ordinary house in Chosun ! If a citizen of North Korea would arrange pictures like the ones shown in this video, he would be taken in immediately, if not executed on the spot. In North Korea, a wall showing portraits of Kim-il-sung and Kim-jong-il must not have other pictures on display. The two "divine leaders" are sacrosanct. Having other pictures on the same wall, let alone at the same height, is pure blasphemy and considered high treason. So much for the Disneyland that tourists are going to see... If You visit a buddhist temple in NK, it actually is a special permit area (with the mandatory electrical fence) accessible only by foreign guided tours and members of the United Front Department of the Worker's Party, which is responsible for inter-korean and foreign affairs. (In NK, that means psychological warfare...) Remember the American tourist who got detained after leaving a bible in his hotel room (Spring 2014)? The personnel in hotels for foreign visitors is hand-picked and with clean backup-checks beforehand. If there is any North Korean accustomed to foreign people's quirks, they certainly are. The hotels for foreigners are special permit zones themselves, with high walls surrounding them. But then, naive tourists are always welcome to North Korea.
