Dictatorship, Paranoia, Famine: Welcome to North Korea!

  • It is the most closed country in the world, the last great communist, paranoid and aggressive dictatorship. In North Korea, nothing or almost nothing has changed since the creation of the country by Kim Il-Sung in 1953. 23 million North Koreans survive in absolute misery, without any freedom, prisoners of impassable borders. It is in this distressing universe that a group of French people have decided to spend their holidays. 8500 euros for three weeks is as expensive as a stay in the Seychelles. But for this price they will have to be satisfied with rationed food, hotels without comfort, outdated buses... Not to mention the permanent surveillance of threatening guides. Claude, Henri and Jacqueline will discover cities without cars, empty shops, casinos without money. They will have to submit to mandatory visits, propaganda and forced tributes to the eternal president of North Korea. An incredible journey, as North Korea prepares for the rise to power of Kim Jong-Un, grandson of the founder of the first communist dynasty in history.

If you only have one or two political parties in your country theres always a risk of becoming a dictatorship. I'm lucky enough to live in a democracy but imagine being in a country wheres there's nothing more to choose than one or two sides. Doesn't matter what political philosophy you engage, it's bound to go wrong. That's why freedom and different parties are important!! The lesser parties the more indoctrination!

    What I want to say is that the videographers were too arrogant. It was a good thing that they tried to explore, but they made things difficult for the staff and did not provide post-technical processing for the staff to protect them. Many ordinary North Koreans are powerless with their lives. The staff that these tourists can encounter can only do things according to the procedures. The consequence of not complying is death.The behavior of the visitors is really embarrassing for these ordinary people. They have no way and cannot give the "democratic answer" that the video shooter hopes to see.

    A North Korean fisherman while out at sea heard South Korean radio program broadcast and in the radio program a character was having a conversation with another character about why they were late and said because "all of the vehicle parking places were taken" so she had to drive further away to finally find a place to park their car. The Sailor laughed at what he thought was silly South Korean propaganda. But he went home and that thought tumbled around in his head and the next few times he went out to sea he would listen to the radio broadcast and eventually something made him think that it might really be true that there could be a place in the world where they had so many cars that they had no place to park them. So eventually he wanted to find out and he defected taking his boat to South Korea.

    33:00 ive worked 6 years in a kindergarten in China. And the differences are insane.
    Every single facial expression of these kids in North Korea, is completely and utterly orchestrated and trained in, nothing is natural child emotions.
    I can spot this from a mile away. And the teacher too, each smile is fake.. Anyone that has worked with kids can see this.
    It's astonishingly sad, that even from the age of 3, they are growing up never having seen, or themselves expressing, real genuine external emotions.
    So how was it in China?
    The same as in the West, frankly, genuine happy playing kids, goofing off, teasing each other, hugging the teacher, good quality teachers that genuinely cared for the kids. They were obviously way more diciplined kids, but mostly in a good way. The fair but firm mentality.
    But when i look at every face in this video, not a single one of the kids are showing genuine emotion.
    Perhaps they never learnt how to, since all their teachers also only show them fake smiles.
    This is a huge issue for their future development as emotional real human beings.
    It's the equivalent of being raised by sociopaths in a basement with no connection to anyone real.

I could imagine emotion management must be hard for kids, but it's a great deal of selection: you can pick a few "model citizen" children among 25 million country for a single show kindergarten (and I guess conditions and opportunities are much better for those kids hence the incentive).

You say the war is over and it's all right? Shouldn't you hate America? It's so hard to kill a person in the US, and then kill it, after the killing is over, is it all right? This is a crime,,,, in the United States you break into someone else's house to kill, and say nasty words, I have killed your husband or wife or child, and then said to you or your husband or wife: The killing is over, You shouldn't hate me, it's hypocrisy and evil.

    A friend of mine in Australia was, a number of years ago, involved in EU aid programs in North Korea. He described how he travelled everywhere with an official "guide" who just followed him around and made sure he only went where the government wanted him to.
    In every town he stayed in there was a single restaurant for officials and high ranking party members only. The food was plentiful in these restaurants and usually wasn't bad. As a "guest" of the government, he was compelled to eat in the towns party restaurant each night.
    My friend said that his guide, invariably a low ranking secret police employee, just loved going out to the restaurant each night. He would just eat until he nearly burst.
    It was quite a fringe benefit for a low ranking party official, like the guide, to eat in a high ranking party restaurant. He was going to make the most of it while it lasted.

    While I understand there is some desire to ask 'politically charged' questions, there's little point in harassing the tour guide. She's just doing her job, and it's not fair to harass her over something she has NO control over and probably has no awareness of anything that she hasn't been brainwashed into believing.

      We know the camera guy never gets killed, but this whole smart-Alec production crew would have tested the patience of Western countries, too. These tourists are guests and should behave accordingly, as in, show a little respect.
