North Korean athletes under 24-hour watch at Olympics
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 сен 2024
- While most Olympic athletes will be mingling throughout the Games, North Korean athletes will be separate, under 24-hour watch, closely monitored wherever they go. A system of watching each other, as they do back home in the North, amid inevitable fears of defections from athletes of other members of the delegation.
These people are literally hostages and we're just watching.
Mr. Tactical Get your tin hat and do something
Mr. Tactical Its either watch or start a war, which is better?
Flyawayaxis, there are much more choices then just those two
Silas Buss More bad would come out as a result then good. Use your brain a little. WE would be affected by it most likely causing thousands if not millions of deaths. NK would use Nukes if they had any available at the time. To free one nation would cause chaos to one or more nations. Please think before you act.
Mr. Tactical what can we do
Super glad I wasn't born in such a country, must be hell
zappy008 where did he/She state it supports antifa?
zappy008 nah, She said something you dont like so you inmediatly associate her with a group you dont like.
zappy008 in my first comment you dumb fuck. Is this all you got?😂
Zappy getting destroyed by a Ugandan warrior. I support this.
Have you tried speaking up on something that is not mainstream in your home country ? Enjoy getting shuffled sideways until you change your opinion back to where your home country wants their citizens to behave.
Its called "facebook". Have you tried, having a slightly different opinion there ? Noticed how you get unfriended from 500 to ZERO friends in one mouse click ?
Sounds like prisoners and not athletes

Ya know that South Korea has North Korean refugees, right? Refugees who could be targeted and dragged back to be publicly killed?
It's north Korea it's been happenjng for years
a pan Do you come from stupid town?
Like the movie "The Longest Yard". lol. Sometimes I think North Korea is what it would be like if the conservatives in America had won the Civil War. yikes.
Gotta respect other ppl's cultures and ways.
i wonder if the north koreans that went to south korea and was like wtf... this place is awesome. wtf is up with our ppl
...And then they are shot in the knees and dragged kicking and screaming to be eaten to death by hogs while soldiers are sent to immediately retrieve three generations of their family to torture and kill. This is NK we're talking about.
you do realize that the athletes have traveled before right? They have to qualify in competitions all around the world. They know what the outside world is like. They are part of the very little .000001% that get to leave that hellhole even once in their lives.
It reminds me of Crash landing on you when Ri Jeong Hyeok's whole squad went to south korea for the first time sneaking woth some athletes and found South korea amazing
Yeonmi Park, a North Korean defector once said when she escaped to South Korea she was really suprised to see people trow away stuff with no holes in it.
Also even if a North Korean escape to South Korea they would be arrested to make sure they are not spies
Some of them did, 21 cheerleaders, and they were put in prison for it.
Seeing this in the 21st century makes my heart ache 😭
they dont know anything else, one man controls everything their lives are determined from brith to death, given a job and free food housing they work that job until they die. no freedom, not much different than prison, such a beautiful country, took hostage by this family for years.
It's like the opposite of heartwarming
what?
In North Korea. They live in the day of the Flintstones.
I want to rescue these people
bionic warrior bruh your comment don't make sense
Mike Marek, we don't punish our people by murder or imprisoning 3 generations of a person's family if they flee or disobey orders to perform at the Olympics, you dolt! If you look for perfect people you will not have allies.
Mike Marek well maybe more like a man who hits his wife telling another man not to kill his wife
i wanna form an assassination cult group that would take out the DPRK head of states one by one. Who's with me?
Great good man, the nort Korean are safer than the Salvadorean, Mexicans all central and sour american people's. The people you can help but instead you hate so much just because you believe everything in the "New's.
Very sad that this goes on in 2018
Whyinem it is fake news. Not true. Cnn is required to make every story on NK a negative one just like with Trump.
ggqbc I know you're a troll but I'll respond anyway. Every news organization agrees NK's a bad situation. CNN isn't even stating opinions on it, just the facts.
ggqbc sure, we'll just go with that and ignore that this is actually happening
It’s for safety, even if we gotta do it every year !!
Saying the year to make a point, doesn't mean shit... Leader of the Jin Dynasty, "Come on Ghengis Khan, it's the year 1215... I mean come on. I can't believe this still happens in 1215."
“I wouldn’t say they are in isolation, they adjust aren’t allowed to interact with anyone” ummmm, you just basically defined the word isolation, bravo.
*“On a scale of 1-10, how strict are your parents about you leaving the house?”*
Me: North Korea
Don’t even make jokes about this, it’s a serious issue, if they leave they kill their families.
does it really shock anyone that they would do this!
Dutch Plays Games YES. I’m floored.
Yeah, especially since the Americans, through their south Korean puppet, will pay $800,000 to every north Korean who defects. That's a fact.
ProleCenter
I don’t think it’s that the North Koreans leave for money but they leave for freedom
Maribel Camacho They already have freedom. They have the freedom of guaranteed employment, pensions, healthcare, education, etc. No one is sleeping on the sidewalk in North Korea tonight. Can America say the same?
ProleCenter corrupted looney!! Any statement appointed without evidence will be dismissed without evidence.
What a life!
Fake news. Fake people. Fake country. Fake world.
Fake life.
I'm not sure if CNN is reporting this as a negative. They seem to admire the steps taken to prevent defection. I bet if a North Korean athlete runs to a CNN reporter, the reporter would turn them over to DPRK officials.
you're a fucking dumbass
@@Joe402 wonderfully said. clown behaviour.
I am speechless...
Amy Chka good
Amy Chka i would love to marry you and give you world!❤️😘
Yeah, thanks America!
Desperation over athletes indicates weakness by north korea
So sad. They should try to save them and not let them return to north korea
Sergiu H then all their families would be tortured and eventually killed
Sergiu H their families back home will be punished they wouldnt if they could
Why is there leader a ass?
No that would lead to war between the countries
Mike Lindell says the guy who went to court for claiming he was a sleep expert. 😂
They are treated like prisoners in NK, give them some freedom in SK.
Wow, they made me sing and clap just now. I feel good for United Korea. I hope things work out for them.
lol at the people who say the US is "just as bad" as North Korea.
nikiyen6 I have never heard anyone say that
Who would say that?
I wouldn't say "just as bad" but if you read upon history, we aren't exactly that perfect of a country either... Learn about the US and you will see most of the nations under war the US has involvement on them historically being the "world police".
YG H well every country does have its flaws, also technically we are the world police as we are basically the backbone of NATO lol
@@anonpowers3841but school shootings? Drugs? Bankruptcy? And y'all lose on Taliban forces breh
"there would be a full debrief, and a review on how each person represented their country to the outside world." Oh Kim, you are already doing enough of that just on how you treat your countries athletes alone.
Being an athlete from NK seems hard and isolating : ( It is sad they will not be able to partake in the whole experience of the games of this magnitude
I cannot imagine living in constant fear
This is sad
Some people just don't understand how important relations can be. If you want to take a thousand mile journey you take it by taking the first step. Having NK officials and merged Olympic team is literally a massive step. You cant just start by saying yea, now free all your people and free NK. Nuclear weapons can and will be disastrous, it so serious that it's not even appropriate to joke about wielding it. Like the USA did with Cuba, some peace is better than none. That's how we start. If you have grown up your whole life being taught propaganda, it doesn't make you evil, since you innocently believe in the Lie that's been warped around you. It's not the people's fault so stop blaming them for something they can't possibly do about.
maheen567 well said!!
Well said!
Chris Minneapolis I may have mis worded it, but as I went through the comment sections many were claiming and stating things such as we need to get rid of North Koreans, why don't they just stay since they are so brain washed and etc. In a way, and through some different perspectives there is some offensive views on the people as well..
maheen567 The propagandized and brainwashed people you are talking about are Americans right?
maheen567 Id rather just invade and free them than wait a hundred more years filled with their bullshit.
sounds like my girlfriend should work for the north korens, she's good at keeping a tab on me........
shit I gotta go now it was nice being RUclips for few minutes see you guys next year.
boku_no_ pico who tf is this why you messing with my man?
Miguel Villeda I kind of doubt you actually have a girlfriend. Any sane person wouldn't stand for the ''psycho" girlfriend/boyfriend shtick.
Fer _ if the man can tame the psycho, then it's a deal
If thats real thats not a healthy relationship
Are you shitting me? They should have access to do whatever the hell they want. They're in South Korea for goodness sake.
I feel bad for them. Like for real.
they will imprison or murder 3 generations of their family if they flee or disobey orders to perform at the Olympics.
But, wasn't CNN so in awe of Kim's sister and the happy NK cheerleaders?
I still can’t believe some people think that the Olympics are in North Korea
I feel so sad for them.
the way they were dancing to songs - so cheerful and so synchronised - is amazing but i can't fully enjoy knowing the torture they go through in their own country
Secret agents *STAY WOKE*
SAUCE COMMENT awake, not woke........
the fact they have to watch them like this means they are afraid they would want to run away FOR A REASON
This is 2018, wake up N. Korea. Let your people live .
Look at the smiles on their faces. They are so happy to be there!!! :)
Here is hoping there won't be a tyrannical North Korea for the next Olympics.
Their uniforms look like tide pods
Patrick Star you do too
How can we free these people T-T
By allowing them to be free yobbos or hooligans, storming through the streets and making their presence known as a Viking like bunch, having absolutely free spirit fun.
They are part of a military precision machine. Here in Australia I heard some elder conservative folks bemoaning the past, when "there was nothing better than a precision marching girl troop". That was not just meant to be a leisure time activity. THESE CONSERVATIVE CITIZENS did expect the Youth to behave ROBOTIC all the time. Like the NKoreans. Just in a FREE world...
Come again...
Like someone already said, they dont want to be free.
Spread Islam in the region
one word ! war !!
By discovering oil in north Korea
How does North Korea manage to teach some of its citizens that South Korea is a poor country but then send some of its own citizens to South Korea where they can clearly see it’s not a poor country
The media glorified this nation last week; crazy.
It's so sad. I feel bad for these girls. I hope they do enjoy the Olympics in some way. I wish they didn't have to live like that.
Freedom!? Never heard of it...
Kim Jong Un gonna tell the citizens they won every single gold medal like he always does lol
"If you dont win the game.i dont know what happen with your family"
-kim jong un
"Or executed if you watch a Kdrama"!.
Funny how NK competes, but citizens are not permitted to watch. That's because the NK media reports it as NK sweeping gold in every event, in every Olympics held. According to them no other country has ever won a gold, NK is in possession of every gold medal that has ever been awarded in Olympic history.
North Korea shouldn’t even be allowed in the Olympics ... wtf
Do you even know the origin of the olympics? It was made to unite the world through sports, this statement of your makes me real sad.
Phil J.L Fig . So are you saying we should punish people for their governments doing to themselves and meddling countries
Phil J.L Fig what the hell lmao ur so stupid
You guys are all braindead
Phil J.L Fig this can be great because even if don't defect now they can so later but right now they on a high alert
They're not isolated, just separated from the rest of the world. . .
US is also under 24 Hour Watch But without people knowing it
Joshua Meek exactly
Joshua Meek yep Russia too and China
Lol true
sounds like the boarding school i went too. The only difference was it only lasted 5yrs not my whole life
I trade one starving North korea family for one CNN producer, CNN anchor, CNN Owner.
Who can we send first?
If gunpoint is the only way to keep your citizens, maybe it’s time to look inward and ask what you’re doing wrong? Maybe, uh, do a little self-reflection? Start asking the big questions? Just a thought.
I mean, to put it into another context, if there are two parties going across the hall from one another, like in that Friends episode, and everyone’s trying to sneak out of Monica’s party to go to Joey’s, maybe it’s time for Monica to take a look inside and ask how she can throw a better party that people want to go to, not get away from.
Why would they even come I thought that they hated everyone or did they just want to one up people
Bernardino Battad because kimmy boy said so his orders
The only reason NK came to the games is to get leverage on South Korea and try to reduce their sanctions. The South Koreans are under the assumption that NK will actually change and maybe even unite the countries. But NK is never willing give up total control over their people.
They're not even allowed to blink unless authorized
sad thing is...there are actually people who think North Korea is 'great'.
Good report, sad situation for them :(
😱 What The Actual FK!!! 😱
Hahaha, I guess North Korea learned from previous Olympics, where people were defecting.
What happens if one of the olympic members decides to run? I highly doubt any of the other nations or security would stop them.
I am ready to win
Win Bigly Comrade!!
G String ...Your the first on my list to get a proper nuclear powered g-string from my people!
G String ...I laugh and pitty you. Even as we speak, I shall surpass supah saiyan God and become the Pokemon master!
Shut up Rocketman
lol
It's scary when a country has to do all that to make sure their athletes don't run away
What a bunch paranoid lunatics.
Not paranoid. If it were me, I'd bolt in an instant. I'd be 24/7 trying to get out of that fucking hellhole of a country.
Do your research. Last time North Korean athletes were allowed in for the Olympics, a spy went with them and detonated a bomb in the plane killing 115 civilians.
I'm pretty sure their families will rather see their child leave that horrible place and live a good life Every parents wants that for their children
Stop treating them like babies ITS A COUNRTY LET IT DO WHAT IT WANTS
They have nuclear weapons and have threatened to use them and they have a terrible human rights record, they're also one of the most secretive and isolated nations in the world
I got this kind of treatment once. Except I wasn't an Olympic athlete; I was in jail picking up garbage on the side of the road.
more propaganda lmao
Propaganda hahah right. This shit happens too much Nk is a shithole who hurts their own people
Technically they can't be forced to return because they are in South Korea, meaning the North Koreans are under South Korean authority, so they can stay in South Korea if they want.
CNN or N K witch is worst ?
Your mothers headgame
Your disastrous spelling
vee bobic of course nk lmao
Trump is definitely worse
There one in the same both LOVE socialism
The last Olympics almost everyone who didn’t place “disappeared” in North Korea..
Damn, this is so sad. One nation artificially divided for decades.
These aren’t athletes…they’re hostages of their own country
If you have to go through all this trouble to have them in the Olympics why even bother to invite them. Is not like they have the best athletes anyway.
this should not be on air.. media nowadays putting pressure in both sides
no chance of stealing sunglasses.
I see so many mistakes, and I don’t keep on correcting people , you saw one from me and you made a big deal,cudos to you
I was born and grew up in that bloody USSR so I am quite familiar with it. For North Korean it's even tangibly worse than it was for us in 70-80s.
The North Korean girl in the infamous Paris Olympics selfie smiled 💀
It's like that old joke, a Soviet musical duet being a quartet after a trip abroad.
That Korean looking Ozzy is a legend he needs a medal for sheer balls good on him
Only thing which is absent is Handcuffs
What shocks me is the south korean police guarding them preventing escape
where are the closed captions? instead you have rotating news headlines. not acceptable.
*flies a plane into the athlete building*
I had more freedom than North Koreans when I spent 6 months in a federal prison
My my my 24 hour servillance Jung a control freak for real
I was expecting the Olympics to be a disaster thinking a North Korean to be ended up dead
So the cheerleader that accidently cheered for the American team will be "debriefed" now?
I feel so horrible watching this video. They're literally hostages and we've got no choice but to watch.
Wait they are actually part of the Olympics now and don't hold their own fake thing?
Remember kids: if it's on the internet it's true
And people think they're such a great country
Any athlete that doesn't win gold will probably go back to N. Korea and face a firing squad for disrespecting their great country.
So why are they being isolated??? They never said WHY
@danceballetacro My understanding has been control. The government of North Korean controls and runs the country's only news source. The internet cannot reach computers outside of North Korean. So the government of North Korean controls any and all information inside North Korean. So the people in North Korean have no idea what the outside world is like. As far as they know, the whole might be like North Korean. Or that other countries are worst then North Korean. So they would be less likely to rise up against the government, since they would have no knowledge or insight to suggest the possibly that their country and government could be better then what it currently is.
Can’t believe how ignorant that government is
One can also say that they want to keep their best people in their home country, while keeping them safe and uncompromised.
Hopefully within time there can be peace.
This is the most unbiased news CNN has ever reported, lol, i bet that felt good huh? Being a real reporter for once.
We are lucky guys we have freedom to do anything we want
But the question is, why are they allowed to join the winter olympics if their country is isolated from the whole world?
They forgot to put in the part where they call Kim a Saint and Donald Satan. Lol 😂
how are they allowed to come to the Olympics?
Love how the singing chick said she wouldn't dare defect plus she has family back home that will be terrified more like massacred
They need to be debriefed and write up a review how they represented North Korea as a country? Jeez
Thats horrible. Why doesnt the world leaders band together and do something?!
So if they tried to escape at the Olympics their families would be tortured, this is the worst inhumane country, yeah countries like Syria are bad but their people have a chance at leaving
If I were them, I would use the Olympics as an opportunity to escape
their families would be punished if they did that:/
