Dont forget this person cant say any negative things about north korea because everyone who goes there has to sign a contract that they can sue him if he talks negatively about north korea so your not actually getting his oppinion
But when he comes back to America, he can still talk negative about North Korea? I assume if he did that, it's best for him to not come back if they see something like that.
@Hi, I'm Barbara Just a bit of correct info from someone who's from Russia: you prolly won't get arrested for complaining about your country. Criticizing the Russian Government is pretty much a national hobby. You shouldn't do it as a foreigner, but that's just a common sense thing, Americans wouldn't like tourists shitting on US either. You might get arrested if you are actually agitating people. Like if you'd start a protest against the government or something. Serious anti-regime propaganda will for sure get you in trouble, but the police could care less about what people are casually talking about. Simply said, making a dumb joke about Putin won't get you arrested, even if it's on the internet and has millions of views. Oh, you should actually check out all the memes we make about Putin, they are quite funny :)
Hi, I'm an ordinary college student born in Korea. I watched your video very well. Since I'm Korean, I haven't even been to North Korea myself, and I'm only learning about North Korea through these videos and school lessons. North Korea and South Korea are very close but far away. So your video about North Korea is so amazing and new. Thank you so much for shooting this video about North Korea. It's definitely the same ethnicity, they speak the same language, and have the same culture, but I can't meet them, I can't talk to them, and I think it's so sad that so much is gradually changing. I hope this problem can be solved soon before there are any more changes... Even if it doesn't work out, I definitely want to go to North Korea someday. 😊
Since you are South Korean and the North Korean government claims authority over the whole Korean peninsula, are you gonna be allowed to leave if you ever visited North Korea? I mean, wouldn’t the North Korean government consider you their citizen and apply all their restrictions to you, once you cross the border?
As a South Korean, I've finished my military service and always wondered how it'd look like in North Korea. I used to regard all North Korean as an 'enemy', but now that I think, there is only one enemy up there
@@beardedlonewolf7695 What about South Africa? You act like civilians in Europe and North America are all angels. You sound like a Boer who is just sour that apartheid is over.
For the curious, the market isnt an actual market. You'll notice there's dust on the bottles and the reason that the shop was locked is because it always is. They have those in view of tourrists to make it seem like the country isnt short on food. The reality is nothing is every sold from there and noone is ever allowed in there.
Sabina Wurmbrand said something slightly similar happened in Communist Romania, but really almost worse: she said that shortages were really bad, but when the country opened up for tourists, suddenly the stores were stocked with goods that they hadn't seen in years. Then, when the borders were closed, the shortages were worse than ever.
If you want to know what North Korea really like - read Every Falling Star. It’s written by a man who grew up in the 90s in North Korea yet escaped in the early 2000’s…his story is unimaginable.
Just remember that the 90s was one of the worst time periods to be in North Korea. The collapse of the USSR was devastating for the economic conditions in the DPRK.
Kim Jong-un is fat while his people starve. That’s all I need to know. He is a monster and there is no life in Korea. North Korea is only survival. Any country that does not allow its citizens to leave is nothing more than a prison state. I’ve heard recent accounts of families committing suicide because life is so disgustingly awful and if one person were to commit suicide, their family would be punished anyway so now entire families are just taking themselves out. I’m so grateful that I was not born there.
He's not fucking brave, he's an arrogant asshole who wants to make money off of suffering people....This video is to fill his need for more followers.....
Actually, friend told me if you stay with the tour guide ALL the time and follow ALL THE RULES you are told and break NONE of them which isn't hard to do, then it's a really safe place to visit as a tourist (as weird and odd as that sounds)

The bank of international settlements is the central bank of central banks. Located in switzerland which was founded by the knights templar. along with cern, fifa, templars priory of sion, etc also being there. the list just keeps going. The bible said the beast would have 7 heads and 10 horns. The swiss government has 7 heads and 10 districts. Kim Jung un and ghadaffi both went to school in Switzerland and speak swiss german. Not many know this. Their banks have been caught parasiting billions through fraud and working with criminals to have money offshores. Thats just one time. Imagine the trillions they have taken from the american people working hard everyday. Thats why Americans are all circumcised. We are the pharoahs slaves. In Egypt it was slaves who got circumcised.. Obelisks, hieroglyphs, pharoah murals, masonry symbols, etc all over switzerland. Every single President ever is linked to swiss royalty and this includes trump, obama, and hillary. Every government ever has swiss people running it. Every army ever has swiss generals. There is literally terms and quotes from swiss people how they bring Switzerland with them and dont integrate. Huge chunk of swiss are spread all over the world this is known as "swiss diaspora creating 5th Switzerland" aka 5th column sleepr agents all over. They take the police, military, and political roles then grab us by the balls. If you look at the swiss belt where all the swiss went in the united states tons of cities named zurich, berne, etc all identical to Switzerland. They are the top of the pyramid. Who would suspect "clean neutral Switzerland"
"Neutral" Switzerland established in 1291, home of the Knights Templar Egyptian pharaonic bloodline and their stolen cache of Jerusalem gold, bankrolled artist and forceful charismatic German orator and propagandist Adolph Hitler, to undertake the biggest heist of financial, physical and human capital ever seen, 1939-1945. The Bank for International Settlements was established in the early 1920s with a stated purpose of facilitating German WW1 reparations. Nothing was further from the truth. The Swiss Pharaohs using the BIS started to raid European countries for their wealth. In the late 1930s an enormous storehouse of oil was found in Saudi Arabia. The House of Windsor (UK monarchy, formerly 'Mountbatten', formerly 'Battenberg' Germans) quickly embraced Saudi Arabia as its vassal and the Swiss pharaohs of "neutral" Switzerland set up a shipping fleet (purportedly "aid" ships) that transported Saudi Arabian oil to Germany. A war would soon begin. The finance and the energy source had been found to protract a war between Pharaohs, by and on behalf of Pharaohs, for a half decade. The Swiss Pharaohs of the European and British elite families would begin their extermination of the common people, their slaves. Thus began World War II.
This makes me appreciate living in the U.S. much more, even though the rich part of North Korea and what he has showed so far doesn't seem too bad, we haven't experienced the poor parts yet, which I couldn't even imagine what those areas are like. It's crazy how many of us here around the world break so many laws that they have over in North Korea every single day. One of these tours could be fascinating but I wouldn't trust my luck, who knows what would happen to me or any other tourist there if someone from the government was having a really bad day.
This 14 min video felt like 2 seconds, loved it. First thing I noticed was how sad everyone looked, don’t think I spotted one person smiling. Keen to watch the rest!
@ Phung Tran That's not true. They're well aware. Those defectors saying that their countrymen are smiling a lot more are honest and not talking about manipulated propaganda material. Bottomline is: Just because you have freedom it doesn't mean you're happier. In South Korea apparently the people seem colder, smile less. Which is very understandable if you think about how in 1st world countries we're constantly under stress, and often lost sight of what really makes us happy
I remember seeing a couple of defectors being interviewed. They'd escaped the country, but not the trauma. One guy talked about how he and his family always thought war with America was coming, but instead of being scared of war coming, they prayed every day that it would come soon and kill them all so their nightmare would end. They looked so utterly drained and without hope. It was heartbreaking.
Yep videos are only played of leaders. Everyday in your first days of schooling. Taught to hate a country. But said country doesn't care because North Korea has nothing in its land America wants. If the country of North Korea was full of rare materials you bet you ass. North Korea would have needed it regime 20 years ago.
@@pgxk5 Praying is asking God to intervene. Sometimes prayer is the only thing we can do, and God is able to do above all that we ask or think. He is even able to send an answer before we ask. I am sorry for you, for you have no hope, either for this life or the next. That can change, if you're willing to do some honest research.
Aaron Rawago Please everyone watching this video series be aware... it simply is an interesting but ludicrous display of total lack of awareness... never even crosses his mind the ridiculous stories he was told are simply not true ugh. Beyond naive to truly believe he was allowed to show/see just anything he wanted lol. Everyone must be smarter then simply presenting progaganda with no mention, or understanding, of actual reality. This guy just ate up & passed on the bs fed to him as fact & didn't even seem to understand he was only permitted to witness the 'Truman Show' presented to outsiders!
@@JustMeELC I don't know if you watched the same video as I did... he was remaining neutral on everything as he didn't want to do anything to cause upset. That's not the same thing as what you're implying.
It's really weird cuz I live in South Korea, which is geologically the closest country to North Korea, but the only way I can see the normal streets and people of NK is through RUclips videos. If we look up our genogram and track it up for just a few generations, almost every South Koreans would find their relatives in NK. It feels strange that my far, far away cousins are living in NK with a border in between. It's a sad tragedy..
Maybe the reason you felt "Invisible" to the residents: They have been told "Do not interact with the foreigners" unless absolutely necessary. The tour guide is the one who interacts with them for the most part. In some scenarios workers would interact with them but only in a professional manner. I believe they have be warned to just ignore the foreigners & go about their day as usual. Remember that what we see here is the TOURIST part of North Korea, Its all a bit of a show, An open air zoo for foreigners, You don't get to see the real North Korea.
North Korea is the only county in the world that I'll never like to visit, it scares me so much and my heart goes to all those family that have to live in such a world where there is not such a thing as human rights. Thank you for this video, being able to see your insight was mind blowing. You are very brave.
If I was a foreigner in North Korea, I’d feel like I’m constantly walking on eggshells. I feel like doing simple things as breathing would get me in trouble, damn.
Also remember that living in the capital is a privilege its self. It's meant to be the show piece for the rest of the world. So for the people saying "oh, it's so clean" there's your answer.
@@abdulbari-_- Lmao seriously ? So it's probably just a coincidence that there are guides with them at all times, verifying where they go ? The whole experience is so obviously staged
@@MlleSallyBrown all i'm saying is a that a wolf in the open is better than a wolf in disguise. America is like a wolf in sheeps wool which is way more dangerous and evil.
Pyonyang is what they want you to see. Very few people of North Korea live on the capital, the rest live on the countryside... and they don't want u to look at that.
Blue Typhoon2017 my English is garbage but some how yours is worse... anyways, please fix your spelling :) also, there are plenty of country out there that have a worse country side than dprk.
That's why I'd never go there. I mean it would be such an experience, but I assume there's always a chance u accidentally do the tiniest thing wrong and end up in a fucking concentration camp for the next 20 years.
I visited North Korea for four days about ten years ago, with a group of international women....it was an extraordinary experience, of course....we went to a theatre, the orchestra and us ladies were waving at one another....it was a human to human experience....
the only people who are watching you are the united states feds (or their equivalent depending on country you live in), and the feds have complete legal access to all your documents/social media account or anything, essentially. man but kim jong un, hes really scary though!
Hello Indigo Traveller! As a person coming from a former communist country (the soviet union), I feel an obligation to tell something about the basics of communist propaganda systems taught to ordinary citizens in case of meeting a tourist. 1. tourists in the USSR were not under any circumstances allowed to move around without their guides. 2. As a citizen, we were taught to never make eye contact with foreigners (eye contact or any form of interaction would be considered "conversing" with the enemy of the "mighty" socialist people: as a result, you would be labeled as an enemy of the people (state)) 3. Tourists were only shown the wealthiest areas of the largest cities in the union. 4. Common citizens didn't have access to stores (supermarkets) to the degree of western countries. We would be standing in lines in central Moscow for several hours just to get a loaf of bread per person. Yes, you couldn't just buy as much bread as you wanted (assuming you had the money), because everything was rationed. Big stores with lots of different products were only made for show to tourists, exactly in the manner as shown in your video in Pyongyang. 5. hotels were extremely rare, and almost inaccessible to ordinary citizens. Only tourists and foreigners could stay the night in a hotel. 6. Disabled, old and poor citizens would be removed from the cities and put into camps away from the public eye, so that they wouldn't spoil the view of the city. 7. Goal number one of the USSR regarding tourism, was to put up a show impressing foreigners, making the impression that everything is amazing and people are happy and well fed, looking busy doing their duty for the motherland. 8. People in the USSR were not allowed to leave their city or village of origin without special permission from the areal political commissar. Most citizens lived their whole lives and died on the same spot during those 70+ years the USSR existed. I can not say if this is the same case as it was when I grew up, but it sure looks a lot like it! So much that I almost felt at home! And that feeling isn't a nostalgic one, but more like a nightmare you try to forget.
@@liontarina8932 Καλημέρα! No, fortunately it is not like that in Russia anymore. Everyone can visit and travel freely. The strict circumstances applied only during communism.
@Denise Mohr it was a poster. A POSTER. not your suitcase with valuable goods. so you think because this guy stole a poster that a 15 years sentence of hard labor is justified? please revaluate what you're trying to say, i beg you. it's absolute madness.
I don’t think he did it. The “evidence” they had was some grainy footage from the 2nd floor (a floor for employees only) taking a poster off the wall and setting it down into the floor. So he was sentenced to 15 years of hard labor for taking a poster off the wall and setting it on the floor. I think he was framed myself.
Coffee Lover there is more footage of his actual face, he did do it, I saw it myself. I don’t think he should’ve been sentenced to 15 years, however he should understand the consequences that come along with going to North Korea. 🇰🇵
And three channels available in north korea. Channel No 1. Kim jong un is the greatest Channel No 2. Kim jong un is the greatest Channel No 3. Kim jong un is the greatest
It’s abit like US MSM. CNN -Trump is racist. MSNBC- Trump is racist ABC-Trump is racist Neither claims by the news outlets are actually true but both are shoved down mindless brainwashed idiots throats. Food for thought.
North Korea feels like a weird dream which sort of feels like a nightmare but it also isn't dead scary to be an actual nightmare but you also know that something is wrong. It's really an eerie unexplainable feeling.
North Korean has definitely recovered from the food scarcity in 90s, which is 20+ years ago, as for electricity, well in the rural area they are still having it but you may just see much more frequent outages.
sadly it’s just normal to them, but I also don’t think that they are allowed to interact with tourists for the same reasons tourists can’t go to the majority of places in NK
How entitled of you. If I was there I wouldn't really care about tourists, there are more things that is worth doing than to accomodate foreigners. They have a life too.
Watching this after listening to Yeonmi Park on Joe Rogan’s podcast, you realize that this is just all show. You really can see just how fake it all is, they want foreigners to leave with a feeling like “see it’s not so bad here” but when you hear an actual North Korean’s account of what it’s really like to live there, the facade just fades away. You can even tell the natives didn’t want to make eye contact with the cameras. Ugh the oppression is sickening. I hope Rogan’s podcast episode with Yeonmi really opens more and more eyes up to what’s actually going on there. Absolutely disgusting.
@@oliverlang1006 yeah she’s obviously on her own mission. She described the famine as if it’s what is happening now and she has all kind of contradictions in her stories. It is most definitely a oppressive evil regime but it’s not a genocide. I doubt that they are hiding piles of human corpses ready to be cannibalized by the starving population.
@@goldbluetears what info are you going off of that there isn’t a famine? I looked up the contradictions to her story and she’s addressed each of them very reasonably. The South Korean show that she was on really messed up her story because of how they wanted to portray her unfortunately. She even addresses the discrepancies between her and her mom.
@@oliverlang1006 there was a great famine in the 90s in NK thats where a lot of people died of starvation. Nowadays the issue is not so much food but freedom. Obviously people can buy food, there are markets and supermarkets. There are a lot of NK defectors you can listen to, especially in south Korea to get a more rounded picture. She is obviously paid by some right wing think american tank to push their narrative, maybe thats why she is dressed like a sex-doll. "the evil leftists are destroying america turning it to NK..." I mean its pretty obvious. When she started with the story being robbed by two black chicks and the people accusing her of racism I mean c´mon... fit people are now white supremacists yeah right, nobody says that, white people and asians are now the most oppressed group in america, ok yeah got it! All she does is over the top narrative examples to manipulate the emotions of the viewers and guide them into a certain direction!
I would never be willing to take the risk to go there. It’s not worth it to get imprisoned there for making a small mistake, especially when you’re not really seeing what it’s actually like anyway.
I hope someday someone will stand up and rise to take over to help North Korea *Edit* :Wow I didn't except so many likes thx anyways u didn't have to like
To travel there you either need to be a high ranking official of some sort, or you book your holiday through Chinese websites, and just one sound of that is sketchy af. I will never risk my life going there, but watching these videos really do humble oneself and out everything into perspective. Truly sorry for the trapped citizens of NK.
Nothing wrong with adapting a little, but to keep yourself ahead of houndreds of unwritten rules just to stay out of severe problems doesn't seem to appealing.

Dark of the knight most of the Tibetan are extremely well treated in China , students from Tibet always get extra financial support by the Chinese government Those Tibetan who escape to west probably were the former upper class in tibet. Before 1949, ppl in Tibet lived a terrible lives. You can see many handcrafts made by humans skulls and skin in Tibet museum. I’m just telling you ppl what I experienced and saw in the real life. Besides, Tibet is not an isolated place. You easily can go there and see if I am right or not by your own eyes
I feel like the tibet situation is very similar to the pyeongyang situation in terms of making it look like everything is fine when internally it is not. The sad thing is you really can't believe everything you see especially in places that are sensitive to the country and are heavily mediated.
I can answer two of your questions. That "wonderful grocery store" where it seemed everyone had gone home for the day? Ordinary North Koreans couldn't afford anything inside that store. I watched another news group walk through such stores, most of it wonderful, all only attainable by foreign tourists. I actually felt tears burning my eyes as your described your, "incredible dinner". A reporter was invited into a North Korean family's home. The lady of the house, after a 12 hour work day at a factory went into her box-like kitchen where she was filmed in tears as she only had half a cabbage head & one rotten potato to feed three generations of her family & the reporter & his "fixer"... I look forward to watching the rest of your trip!!
Everything about it feels so sinister when you know what the people who live there go through and how many people get shot trying to leave. So sad. I can’t imagine the feeling of being there.
A capital with no bad looking people, everyone seems healthy, active, even athletic. They seem all emotionless, no angry, no sadness, just some kind of "normal" happiness. Seems like loud talking, maybe general discussions... it looks like a movie set.
The way the pedestrians avoid you and the camera is eerie after coming from the Sudan video where curious crowds would gather around for anything mundane.
Major credit to you. I'd love to go everywhere in the world but this is one of a few countries that I'd never step foot in. Thanks for bringing this country to us in such a great documentary.
Everyone is there to create the perception it's bustling with people - but if you look closely something is off. It seems crowded, but not really. Just a bit too orderly. People are going to and fro, yet he hasn't gotten jostled once. Same deal with the lack of staring. It's like the Truman show.
also look at peoples faces. No ones smiling. No ones cheerful. No one looks back. Look at how skinny many people are, look at their cheekbones standing out.
LoL all this 'theories' on North Korea. It's impressive how media can influenced the way our mindset work and thus set with all these NK stereotypes. As for me, I would actually take the chance if there was ever an opportunity for me to go there to experience everything all by myself. Though, I doubt my VISA would worked there.

Dont forget this person cant say any negative things about north korea because everyone who goes there has to sign a contract that they can sue him if he talks negatively about north korea so your not actually getting his oppinion
But when he comes back to America, he can still talk negative about North Korea? I assume if he did that, it's best for him to not come back if they see something like that.
The contract is about libel. Not opinion.
@Hi, I'm Barbara Just a bit of correct info from someone who's from Russia: you prolly won't get arrested for complaining about your country. Criticizing the Russian Government is pretty much a national hobby. You shouldn't do it as a foreigner, but that's just a common sense thing, Americans wouldn't like tourists shitting on US either. You might get arrested if you are actually agitating people. Like if you'd start a protest against the government or something. Serious anti-regime propaganda will for sure get you in trouble, but the police could care less about what people are casually talking about. Simply said, making a dumb joke about Putin won't get you arrested, even if it's on the internet and has millions of views. Oh, you should actually check out all the memes we make about Putin, they are quite funny :)

Hi, I'm an ordinary college student born in Korea. I watched your video very well. Since I'm Korean, I haven't even been to North Korea myself, and I'm only learning about North Korea through these videos and school lessons. North Korea and South Korea are very close but far away. So your video about North Korea is so amazing and new. Thank you so much for shooting this video about North Korea. It's definitely the same ethnicity, they speak the same language, and have the same culture, but I can't meet them, I can't talk to them, and I think it's so sad that so much is gradually changing. I hope this problem can be solved soon before there are any more changes... Even if it doesn't work out, I definitely want to go to North Korea someday. 😊
You should probably know that this video is full of lies created by Americans then.
Since you are South Korean and the North Korean government claims authority over the whole Korean peninsula, are you gonna be allowed to leave if you ever visited North Korea? I mean, wouldn’t the North Korean government consider you their citizen and apply all their restrictions to you, once you cross the border?
You speak very good English. You're well spoken.
As a South Korean, I've finished my military service and always wondered how it'd look like in North Korea. I used to regard all North Korean as an 'enemy', but now that I think, there is only one enemy up there
Yes. It is case with all countries. Civilians are not bad, the government and military are what responsible for a country's image in world.
It would’ve helped if we did the bomb the place to smithereens in 1953 and proudly and brutally economically sanction their public since then.

Trump loves Kim jong un and admires how he runs things. Hope he gets locked up or somethin before he tries to be Kim jong un
You thanked the wrong god. You know what that means; eternal torment and suffering. Oops!
For the curious, the market isnt an actual market. You'll notice there's dust on the bottles and the reason that the shop was locked is because it always is. They have those in view of tourrists to make it seem like the country isnt short on food. The reality is nothing is every sold from there and noone is ever allowed in there.
Sabina Wurmbrand said something slightly similar happened in Communist Romania, but really almost worse: she said that shortages were really bad, but when the country opened up for tourists, suddenly the stores were stocked with goods that they hadn't seen in years. Then, when the borders were closed, the shortages were worse than ever.
If you want to know what North Korea really like - read Every Falling Star. It’s written by a man who grew up in the 90s in North Korea yet escaped in the early 2000’s…his story is unimaginable.
Just remember that the 90s was one of the worst time periods to be in North Korea. The collapse of the USSR was devastating for the economic conditions in the DPRK.
Kim Jong-un is fat while his people starve. That’s all I need to know. He is a monster and there is no life in Korea. North Korea is only survival. Any country that does not allow its citizens to leave is nothing more than a prison state. I’ve heard recent accounts of families committing suicide because life is so disgustingly awful and if one person were to commit suicide, their family would be punished anyway so now entire families are just taking themselves out. I’m so grateful that I was not born there.

The bank of international settlements is the central bank of central banks. Located in switzerland which was founded by the knights templar. along with cern, fifa, templars priory of sion, etc also being there. the list just keeps going. The bible said the beast would have 7 heads and 10 horns. The swiss government has 7 heads and 10 districts. Kim Jung un and ghadaffi both went to school in Switzerland and speak swiss german. Not many know this. Their banks have been caught parasiting billions through fraud and working with criminals to have money offshores. Thats just one time. Imagine the trillions they have taken from the american people working hard everyday. Thats why Americans are all circumcised. We are the pharoahs slaves. In Egypt it was slaves who got circumcised.. Obelisks, hieroglyphs, pharoah murals, masonry symbols, etc all over switzerland. Every single President ever is linked to swiss royalty and this includes trump, obama, and hillary. Every government ever has swiss people running it. Every army ever has swiss generals. There is literally terms and quotes from swiss people how they bring Switzerland with them and dont integrate. Huge chunk of swiss are spread all over the world this is known as "swiss diaspora creating 5th Switzerland" aka 5th column sleepr agents all over. They take the police, military, and political roles then grab us by the balls. If you look at the swiss belt where all the swiss went in the united states tons of cities named zurich, berne, etc all identical to Switzerland. They are the top of the pyramid. Who would suspect "clean neutral Switzerland"
"Neutral" Switzerland established in 1291, home of the Knights Templar Egyptian pharaonic bloodline and their stolen cache of Jerusalem gold, bankrolled artist and forceful charismatic German orator and propagandist Adolph Hitler, to undertake the biggest heist of financial, physical and human capital ever seen, 1939-1945. The Bank for International Settlements was established in the early 1920s with a stated purpose of facilitating German WW1 reparations. Nothing was further from the truth. The Swiss Pharaohs using the BIS started to raid European countries for their wealth. In the late 1930s an enormous storehouse of oil was found in Saudi Arabia. The House of Windsor (UK monarchy, formerly 'Mountbatten', formerly 'Battenberg' Germans) quickly embraced Saudi Arabia as its vassal and the Swiss pharaohs of "neutral" Switzerland set up a shipping fleet (purportedly "aid" ships) that transported Saudi Arabian oil to Germany. A war would soon begin. The finance and the energy source had been found to protract a war between Pharaohs, by and on behalf of Pharaohs, for a half decade. The Swiss Pharaohs of the European and British elite families would begin their extermination of the common people, their slaves. Thus began World War II.

This makes me appreciate living in the U.S. much more, even though the rich part of North Korea and what he has showed so far doesn't seem too bad, we haven't experienced the poor parts yet, which I couldn't even imagine what those areas are like.

Thank you Brittney! Appreciate your support, enjoy the rest of the series! 🙏🇰🇵
Me neither, but according to defectors North Koreans smile a lot more than the South Koreans, which I'd find understandable
They don’t know how hard they have it, or they are instructed to do so.
@ Phung Tran
That's not true. They're well aware. Those defectors saying that their countrymen are smiling a lot more are honest and not talking about manipulated propaganda material. Bottomline is: Just because you have freedom it doesn't mean you're happier. In South Korea apparently the people seem colder, smile less. Which is very understandable if you think about how in 1st world countries we're constantly under stress, and often lost sight of what really makes us happy
they look the same as we are when we are staring into our smartphones everytime
I remember seeing a couple of defectors being interviewed. They'd escaped the country, but not the trauma. One guy talked about how he and his family always thought war with America was coming, but instead of being scared of war coming, they prayed every day that it would come soon and kill them all so their nightmare would end. They looked so utterly drained and without hope. It was heartbreaking.
Yep videos are only played of leaders. Everyday in your first days of schooling.

Maybe the reason you felt "Invisible" to the residents:
They have been told "Do not interact with the foreigners" unless absolutely necessary.
The tour guide is the one who interacts with them for the most part.
In some scenarios workers would interact with them but only in a professional manner.
I believe they have be warned to just ignore the foreigners & go about their day as usual.
Remember that what we see here is the TOURIST part of North Korea, Its all a bit of a show, An open air zoo for foreigners, You don't get to see the real North Korea.

@@lunay4723 He took down a poster in a hotel without permission.
Hello Indigo Traveller! As a person coming from a former communist country (the soviet union), I feel an obligation to tell something about the basics of communist propaganda systems taught to ordinary citizens in case of meeting a tourist.
1. tourists in the USSR were not under any circumstances allowed to move around without their guides.
2. As a citizen, we were taught to never make eye contact with foreigners (eye contact or any form of interaction would be considered "conversing" with the enemy of the "mighty" socialist people: as a result, you would be labeled as an enemy of the people (state))
3. Tourists were only shown the wealthiest areas of the largest cities in the union.
4. Common citizens didn't have access to stores (supermarkets) to the degree of western countries. We would be standing in lines in central Moscow for several hours just to get a loaf of bread per person. Yes, you couldn't just buy as much bread as you wanted (assuming you had the money), because everything was rationed. Big stores with lots of different products were only made for show to tourists, exactly in the manner as shown in your video in Pyongyang.
5. hotels were extremely rare, and almost inaccessible to ordinary citizens. Only tourists and foreigners could stay the night in a hotel.
6. Disabled, old and poor citizens would be removed from the cities and put into camps away from the public eye, so that they wouldn't spoil the view of the city.
7. Goal number one of the USSR regarding tourism, was to put up a show impressing foreigners, making the impression that everything is amazing and people are happy and well fed, looking busy doing their duty for the motherland.
8. People in the USSR were not allowed to leave their city or village of origin without special permission from the areal political commissar. Most citizens lived their whole lives and died on the same spot during those 70+ years the USSR existed.
I can not say if this is the same case as it was when I grew up, but it sure looks a lot like it! So much that I almost felt at home! And that feeling isn't a nostalgic one, but more like a nightmare you try to forget.

She is obviously paid by some right wing think american tank to push their narrative, maybe thats why she is dressed like a sex-doll. "the evil leftists are destroying america turning it to NK..."
I mean its pretty obvious. When she started with the story being robbed by two black chicks and the people accusing her of racism I mean c´mon... fit people are now white supremacists yeah right, nobody says that, white people and asians are now the most oppressed group in america, ok yeah got it!
All she does is over the top narrative examples to manipulate the emotions of the viewers and guide them into a certain direction!

XD Boi78 69
420
yes
*yes*
Yes
it’s strange because at a glance it seems ordinary but once you know the background it’s terrifying
I hope someday someone will stand up and rise to take over to help North Korea
*Edit* :Wow I didn't except so many likes thx anyways u didn't have to like
Olivia • wut
Ima Younginnn btw it's fine
We must help south korea to defeat north and they will be reunited again

Lets storm North Korea instead of Area 51
yeah
Please do!
But there is a nuke right under Kim Fatty's ass ;)
Still wanna storm North Korea? 😂

Lets Area 51 get the Aliens let them come with us to North Korea lets see what our new friends can do!

To travel there you either need to be a high ranking official of some sort, or you book your holiday through Chinese websites, and just one sound of that is sketchy af. I will never risk my life going there, but watching these videos really do humble oneself and out everything into perspective. Truly sorry for the trapped citizens of NK.
A high ranking official or you must be really bored out of your mind with life
Nothing wrong with adapting a little, but to keep yourself ahead of houndreds of unwritten rules just to stay out of severe problems doesn't seem to appealing.
@@kareandersson exactly. At some point you just need to accept it isn’t worth feeding your curiosity and going there. You could follow the law better than the citizens but you’d could still end up in a severe situation
You can go if you get a Visa to go, but 99% of the time any requests for one are rejected
Maybe for Chinese nationals. Non-Chinese can book through several travel agent companies that take people there.
0:50 that music is so good, I love it for some reason 😂🙌🏻
My heart breaks every time I see Otto . I feel so bad for him and his family . A fate worse than death followed by death. My God .
I feel bad for him too but what level of delusional American entitlement did he have to go to another country and disrespect its political images - ESPECIALLY a country like NK? He was a college student - they had have given the students plenty of information about how strict and psycho that place was before they traveled there.
He was a moron and naturally selected himself out of the gene pool.
He shouldn’t have expressed his typical rich boy entitlement attitude up there, it’s universally known that, they’ll kill yah for so much as breathing the wrong way.
@@salleymudd5488 you're a clown. There's no proof of it actually being Otto. The clip is more pixelated than Minecraft, it's impossible to determine that it's even Otto. It could've been anyone else. Fucking clowns never fact checking anything
@@Shrouded_reaper the morons are you and others who think you can determine that it's even Otto from 2 pixels. Delusional. Watch the security footage.
Its like some creepy fake show for tourist *In specific spots of the tour* obviously people around are living real lives.
It is a creepy fake show and everybody knows it.
Just like when you go to NYC and then you realize half of America is poor, right?
ye just like that
Like the movie The Interview
Comscum Or when you go to any European country and realize half of them are poor. Then you go to China, Thailand and India and realize more than 60% are poor
My dad was North Korean, my mom is Canadian. My dad met my mom in sk... had me and my older brother... but he passed on in 2008 😞
:((
@@charlottebaskill2732 i mean you can try to escape if you're talking about north korea
@@charlottebaskill2732 Yes North Koreans can freely travel to China for work and vacation. It’s actually when they go to South Korea and the South Korean doesn’t let them home, yes North Koreans want to go back home most of the time but South Korea essentially kidnaps them but the western world acts like it’s normal because North Korea is sCaRy.
@@playboiqwerty2395 Yea, 15 years of hard labour for tearing down a poster is indeed scary. Your point?
:(((((
what a fascinating look inside the hermit kingdom. in the public areas the people are all nicely dressed. The women are almost all wearing nice skirts with heels. I wasn't sure what to expect, but I certainly did not expect that. Thanks for sharing.
The people there look emotionless. They never smile like they’re dead inside
don't worry you will be the same in a couple of years when life hits you just because you have RUclips Instagram pornhub doesn't mean you're free you're currently milking of your dad's money
Same thing in russia
DJ_Trolly I’m very satisfied with living in the west actually considering I can atleast use the internet and speak freely ab the gov and anyone I please
Same atleast I can live freely go on yt insta snapchat and Google and actually walk around on the streets without being afraid I'm so glad I don't live there I hope Thay change there ways in the future because Thay can be a good country
@@hassanulger7167 mate I would rather be depressed in the West than live in North Korea
The city isn't bad but this is probably the top 1% life in North Korea.
Yep and you need special permission to live there.
No dude what you see is an illusion none of the people have any freedom, the city’s are for show it’s like the lord farquads kingdom you get it
Lion Pride Alpha that’s basically it

Seeing the empty but fully-stocked grocery store reminded me of the movie The Interview.
CryptoZoo Mauler THATS WHAT I WAS THINKING!!!!
@@rhiannonmendez9456 well yeah these shops are quite well known because they are just there for show to try to make people think they have resources available for their people it just makes me wonder why not just have a real shop lol
CryptoZoo Mauler yeah it’s all fake in some way I’m sure
The grocery stores are real but the people are only allowed a couple days worth of groceries a week. They're led to believe there aren't enough resources to go around. That's a lie. They just want to have control over everything
FAKE GRAPEFRUITS. YOU LIAR!!!!!!!!!!
Im so thankful I work here in South Korea..I can't imagine how dangerous living in North Korea..
My great grandmother was from the North Korean side of the country before the division of North and South Korea. It's surreal to think that she once had a home there (even though I never got the opportunity to ask what is was like while she lived there). Meanwhile my grandma is surely glad that she got to grow up in South Korea instead.
you better be glad also, you would be born in north korea
@@arezanmusic honestly I probably wouldn't have been born at all since my mom and myself are mixed !
@@LeilaLovesLattesWell, you wouldn't have been born the way you are now obviously with a different set of partners, obviously. Also, I don't know why you need to say honestly here. It's so often that several people excessively use the word, 'honestly', or say, 'tbh'. It's as if they're compulsive liars, and they're feeling compelled to point out that they're in fact not lying this time around. You also did it with some broken grammar, "honestly". Lol
Interesting about the family.
몇킬로미터 차이로 북한에서 살 뻔..
Pyeongyang is all for the show and tourist, nothing there is real. You need to go to rural areas (not allowed to anyone) to see the horrible things
Having spent time in China and what we were told about them was total bollocks I'm willing to believe what we are told about North Korea is just as much rubbish
Anyone want to see an execution with firing squad for stealing rice? Who wants to see a village die of malnutrition? Let's go see the real North Korea.
Dark of the knight most of the Tibetan are extremely well treated in China , students from Tibet always get extra financial support by the Chinese government Those Tibetan who escape to west probably were the former upper class in tibet. Before 1949, ppl in Tibet lived a terrible lives. You can see many handcrafts made by humans skulls and skin in Tibet museum. I’m just telling you ppl what I experienced and saw in the real life. Besides, Tibet is not an isolated place. You easily can go there and see if I am right or not by your own eyes
I feel like the tibet situation is very similar to the pyeongyang situation in terms of making it look like everything is fine when internally it is not. The sad thing is you really can't believe everything you see especially in places that are sensitive to the country and are heavily mediated.
Not allowed to anyone , but you moron
I can answer two of your questions. That "wonderful grocery store" where it seemed everyone had gone home for the day? Ordinary North Koreans couldn't afford anything inside that store. I watched another news group walk through such stores, most of it wonderful, all only attainable by foreign tourists. I actually felt tears burning my eyes as your described your, "incredible dinner". A reporter was invited into a North Korean family's home. The lady of the house, after a 12 hour work day at a factory went into her box-like kitchen where she was filmed in tears as she only had half a cabbage head & one rotten potato to feed three generations of her family & the reporter & his "fixer"... I look forward to watching the rest of your trip!!
lmao calm down , look at the state of most other countries.
That “amazing dinner” looked small and not appatizing
@@frango8352 yes Frango such a bad state, commenting bullshit on a YT video from the conformity of your high quality design house
@@tylersnow75
He only said it was great in case NK officials confiscated his video. He’d end up like Otto. NK is a pure shithole.
@@frango8352 trash
It honestly surprises me that many Americans still go there even after knowing what North Korea is about.
It's about experiencing it in real life, and to share some information with us
Imagine if Logan Paul went to North Korea.
Edit: Thank you for the likes! Lets hope Logan sees this😂
Shirley Liu brujhhh
noooooo HAHAHA
That would end up bad for him
It would end by filming a dead body at the end and it would be his
We should SEND him to North Korea
This is like a simulator game everyone just doing their thing

Aren't they lucky not to have such shite!
I would love to visit N. Korea somewhere at my 80th, nothing to lose at that age really
Someone:My country is the worst..
North Korea:HOLD MY MISSILE

Cuba:hold my commie cap.

@@DomeShaker that is a horrible idea
Everything about it feels so sinister when you know what the people who live there go through and how many people get shot trying to leave. So sad. I can’t imagine the feeling of being there.
A capital with no bad looking people, everyone seems healthy, active, even athletic. They seem all emotionless, no angry, no sadness, just some kind of "normal" happiness. Seems like loud talking, maybe general discussions... it looks like a movie set.
Dystopia in full swing. No fat people, only smart people. Only good looking people. The leaders are the only ones fat, ugly and smiling.
No.
They do not seem healthy they seem restricted.
yeah because it basically is a movie set when foreigners come
Reminds me of The Lottery 🤠
Those dramatic slow motions and weird sounds from this video 😂🙌🏿 I can’t
The way the pedestrians avoid you and the camera is eerie after coming from the Sudan video where curious crowds would gather around for anything mundane.
Major credit to you. I'd love to go everywhere in the world but this is one of a few countries that I'd never step foot in. Thanks for bringing this country to us in such a great documentary.

Oh god hearing about Otto made my stomach drop. I remember hearing it and seeing the it on the news growing up it scares me so much
I've read that many shops, such as that bookstore, are always empty, as they are used solely as visuals for foreigners.
I read that they eat the books, thus the empty shelves.
Everyone is there to create the perception it's bustling with people - but if you look closely something is off. It seems crowded, but not really. Just a bit too orderly. People are going to and fro, yet he hasn't gotten jostled once. Same deal with the lack of staring.
It's like the Truman show.
Evan Crown yooo fr
also look at peoples faces. No ones smiling. No ones cheerful. No one looks back. Look at how skinny many people are, look at their cheekbones standing out.
Yes, no one really lives there, they all magically float away whenever you're not looking. Kim Jong in personally creates them in his magic lab
Evan Crown exactly like that.
LoL all this 'theories' on North Korea. It's impressive how media can influenced the way our mindset work and thus set with all these NK stereotypes. As for me, I would actually take the chance if there was ever an opportunity for me to go there to experience everything all by myself. Though, I doubt my VISA would worked there.
Finally I found someone smiling!!!
8:08 the guy at upper left with a cellphone.... calling
he has a phone... wow
Lmao his face though
probably got a call on finding a way out of north korea
